The man "announces an intention to buy" and not a dime has changed hands, yet they believe that not only has the sale gone through, but he flipped some switch and magically reinstated all the insurrection-loving seditionist nuts.

Roger Stone was re-banned the other day, and I saw something about white nationalist Nick Fuentes getting banned this afternoon.

I am not sure what he is up to, but he wanted to make waves with that, so he did it. Maybe to try and scare the owners into not banning those who post lies and say it is the truth? Which I personally do not have an issue with, as I do not believe anything I see online without conformation. And, that means actual, factual conformation, not the fact that others are parroting the same crap. Luckily, we have the DU, which has proven to be pretty darn accurate and factual. Maybe the DU gang should be on the lookout for the eventual Musk offer?

that Musk will not follow through. It was only being discussed on an NPR program as a possibility based on some behavior and comments by Musk.

I'm not on Twitter, so it wouldn't affect me directly.

I am just not fragile enough to think that everyone needs to hear my every thought. But, that is just my old fashioned opinion.

On another program today, a guest explained the financing process involved in the Twitter buy up and said that things are progressing normally for the purchase.

If you have not seen it, you should go to YouTube and check them out (just to see the background... nota moment more!) The man is truly an example of a fried brain and it is a stone miracle that someone has not removed that shady weirdo from the gene pool. But, such is the power of money.

And to what extent a person can appear to function with a completely deranged mind.
