Elon Musk says it was 'not cool' for Democrats to ask Twitter Files reporter Matt Taibbi to reveal his sources in a hearing

to discuss the files, which made public some of Twitter's internal content-moderation discussions and revealed communication between the FBI and Twitter executives before Musk took over the company.

The files included internal discussions about the decision to ban Donald Trump from the platform and the moderation process around controversial topics such as Hunter Biden's laptop and the January 6, 2021, attack on the Capitol. Republicans contend that the documents confirm what they believe was Twitter's liberal bias.

Garcia asked Taibbi in the hearing if Musk was his direct source behind the files."No, now you're trying to get me to say that he is the source, I just can't answer your question," Taibbi replied. Rep. Stacey Plaskett, a nonvoting representative of the US Virgin Islands, questioned Taibbi's credibility and said releasing the internal communications had put Twitter employees at risk. The House Judiciary chair, Jim Jordan, stepped in, saying the Democrats"pressurizing" Taibbi to reveal his source was a"violation of the First Amendment."

Who cares? Where TF is the demand that these belligerent representatives get put on trial for their crimes against Americans?

I got to agree. But somehow I don't know how this came to be - there has to be some sort of reason. Without knowing the full story, I can't really comment. That's probably me & millions of others.

That’s none of his fuccing business.

Musk is not cool. He’s trying really hard though.

Musk is gaslighting everyone. He is the source. He said so from Day 1. Musk: “I gave Bari Weiss access to The Twitter Files an hour ago.” Weiss confirmed and wrote about searching files at Twitter Headquarters with Taibbi.

Does this guy actually work or does he just watch what happens on the news and on Twitter all day long? Isn't he basically running Twitter and Tesla at the same time all by himself since he's fired everyone else? What a genius! What an omnipotent God! What an insecure small man.

The entire world assumed it was him. What difference does it make.
