They don't have to control the platform to arrest those they deem to be in violation of their rules.

Jeff Bezos eventually cashed out and bought a few yachts
I don't see Elon doing that anytime soon. Go listen to some of his long form interviews.
He sold all his homes during the pandemic

Any billionaire can buy an island. Musk wants Twitter because he thinks free speech is more important.
All the complainers who say that Musk could have spent $40 billion to solve world hunger aren't demanding that Bezos or Zuckerberg do the same. Those two are never criticized by the left.

"does not seem" means nothing. And since that article is from msnbc I doubt they even tried to find someone with an opposing viewpoint. What a waste of time.
However, Twitter could stop the gossip at any point by providing the numbers. Any legitimate company would not hesitate to do so.

Meh. While stimulating an overheating economy isn't wise, it is the monetary authority, not the fiscal authority, that is responsible for maintaining inflation low and stable. The fisc can stimulate, but it will just lead to higher rates to cool the economy sufficiently by crowding out private investment.Tweets like this is why we have the Ministry of Truth

Twitter legal team contacted Musk for violating non-disclosure agreement on the bot thing
So "does not seem" sure seems to mean something to someone in the legal department
Reality is the bots inflate engagement data for their ad sales

Plus maybe, at least some merger experts think..... a few more billions in lawsuits from Twitter.
They do have a fiduciary duty to their shareholders and may claim Musk damaged Twitter's reputation and value.
The money doesn't matter as much to Musk as his ego does.

It looks like Musk is desperate to find a way out of the deal that leaves him looking good.
From what they are saying on business news, the merger agreement looks ironclad and Twitter says they expect Musk to complete the deal.
It looks like Musk is testing the water but Twitter isn't taking the bait.

It's a normal to pull an offer if the seller misrepresented themselves.
Why would anyone pay full price for a business that only has a portion of the customers that they claim? That's why books are reviewed and due diligence is done.

It turns out the US govt has had to (temporarily at least) shut down their Ministry of Truth once it was discovered that the person they appointed was a known liar with far left bias.
Censorship: the left can't exist without it.

... or Musk needs to take a page out from Dump's book for his legal team (if any) "You're ALL Fired!!!!". And that's from the Ministry of Truth (as soon as Musk takes over).
