Elon Musk is sticking his nose into it again. This time he's paying for it. ...

Who wants to support Elon's version of the Constitution?
His version of Freedom of Speech is, "As long as I agree with your speech, Twitter (currently known a X) will allow it."

Sign our petition to support the Constitution!

Also earn $47 for every person you refer to sign the petition if they’re in a swing state.

Goal is to get 1M voters in swing states to show support for free speech & right to bear arms.

The First Amendment prohibits the government (“Congress shall make no law. . .) from interfering with free speech. Neither Musk, nor his social media site, is the government.

What I'm saying is that he's all for free speech, like we all are.
But on his platform, if he doesn't like what you post you'll get cut off.
It's the hypocrisy.

He is so transparent, so obvious in his desire to be the coolest, most interesting guy in the world. Yet he keeps failing, epically.

...can save the Constitution and our democracy.

Rich, isn't it? Only Trump.

Lies are totally central to their campaign.
