From the thread on twitter:

Seven and three are ten, not only now, but forever. There has never been a time when seven and three were not ten, nor will there ever be a time when they are not ten. Therefore, I have said that the truth of number is incorruptible and common to all who think. — St. Augustine

Wonderful. They probably lied knowing it would torpedo the deal.

Twitter stock should be near worthless.

If Elon doesn't buy Twitter, the stock goes into the 20's. The stock price is telling you there is a high likelihood the deal doesn't go through.

Which would be awesome, and great for our society. And then hopefully he can figure out how to kill the Facebook next.

Its a "zombie company" and should be worth zero. Elon buying it and focusing on how to make it profitable was its only hope

If Elon doesn't end up purchasing it, my prediction is twitter goes super draconian and starts banning, shadow banning, manipulating their algorithms more than ever before.

Can we just shut down Twitter? It is a terrible platform and has been weaponized for bad things.

Lying and perjury to Congress during a special inquiry should be leverage to do just that.

T&P to my Twitter shares. Most disappointed in if he can't get it the libs will continue to provide free advertising and influence future elections.

At least it will help the Tesla shares, which I have more of…

Just heard on FNC that Twitter has stated they will sue Musk for specific performance.

To say that is very risky for them is an understatement.

Scoff if you want but with the world's richest man going to legal war with them will be what lawyers call a rolling barrage of discovery and depositions. And Elon has Dorsey on his side.

That's what I'm hoping for! Expose them for the frauds that they are.
