“I went over it with him in detail, and he agreed that we should shut it down,” Musk said. ... ‘Are you sure?’”

“And so we’re shutting it down,” Musk said.

All this is SO twisted.
Asking for Russian interference was illegal
Trying to extort Ukraine was illegal

The account Musk reposted is described as providing training on how to create viral content and monetize X posts.
The rest is going to be a variable factor. Musk needs to be removed. Preferably to Mars. Immediately.
Perhaps more appropriate in 2.0, the same for impeachable offenses that Congressional Republicans are either ignoring or facilitating.
And, while not to blame, too many Senate Dems keep voting for appointees.
The constitution doesn’t exist anymore just like he said he would do. It’s just words on paper now.
Might is right is the new law.
