There is more to Elmer’s temper tantrum and Mueller, She Wrote has this information up. In some court documents it is showing that MBS wanted information from the old Twitter on who was using the platform to post the Saudi uprising. At first, Twitter refused then Jack Dorsey tried to find a way to accommodate MBS. Apparently, it did not work out and that is when MBS decided to buy the social media. This is what she wrote:
Six months later, Jack Dorsey met with MBS to discuss how they could work together to "train and qualify" Saudi groups on Twitter to do the very same work the two spy employees had done. And just 8 months prior to that meeting, KSA doubled its investment in Twitter.
Once KSA had recruited Twitter, it plotted to kidnap, disappear, and murder multiple dissident voices including the plaintiff’s brother, and Jamal Khashoggi. The transnational criminal enterprise of threats to anonymous Twitter dissidents continues to this day.
I recommend you read this lawsuit to understand WHY the KSA and MBS own the second largest chunk of Twitter behind Elon Musk. How involved is Musk? I keep thinking of the photos from the World Cup with Kushner and MBS. What’s Kushner’s involvement? He just got $2B from MBS.
The whole idea is that it’s always Biden’s fault for whatever grievance touches their fancy and her voters are very likely to bobble their heads in complete agreement. She’s on safe ground here - spite for spite’s sake.
FWIW, I caught up the other day with my acquaintance who knows Elon pretty closely, and he was not kind about his recent decision-making. Mind you, that was before Elon came out as so strongly in favor of antisemitic speech.
It’s a sad sign of our era that more people seem to be willing to say this shit out loud: “if the Jews would just stop talking about antisemitism there’d be less of it.” Or, Black people and racism, queer people and homophobia, etc.
(pretty sure the red dude on the right side of the photo (Neal’s left shoulder) is the one causing the Satan remark. Can’t tell if he has horns or not.)
Terrible shirt choices aside, Katyal is awesome. And Jeffrey Clark should STFU. Also, social media is the real evil here. Talk about devolution..
The Musk story is simple. Rich anti-semite knows he shouldn’t be perceived as an anti-semite but persists in doing so while denying his anti-semitism.
The Clark story is more perplexing. Jeff Clark is facing decades in prision for his role in trying to steal the American election for Trump, but here he is trying, badly, to dunk on Neal Katyal. Why isn’t he working on his case? Has Donald Trump told him to sit back and enjoy what is coming? Don’t tell me the Trumpers don’t watch MSNBC.
MTG is a really bad politician in a deeply gerrymandered district. I have never known any politican to bad mouth anyone for bringing good paying jobs to her district. Could somebody run a campaign against her on this issue.
