Not too happy with Elon Musk’s choice of Linda Yaccarino as CEO.
Here’s another view:

Twitter hiring Linda Yaccarino isn’t necessarily a bad thing, and may shed some light on some good things in the works. Here’s why:
1. It doesn’t seem like the new role of CEO will have the authority to change content moderation policy. Elon is stepping up as Executive Chairman and Chief Technology Officer “overseeing product, software & sysops.” As Executive Chairman, it looks like he will have final say similar to how the board had final say over many of Dorsey’s recommendations as CEO.
2. At NBCU, Yaccarino was responsible for launching the ad based streaming service, Peacock. It looks like her experience is particularly in line with updates and improvements to livestreaming and multimedia content on the platform. This could be a play to make changes and expand the way creators can use Twitter as well as the way Twitter can actually start making a profit.
3. Previous tweets relating to her support for masks, the vaccines, and the WEF are a cause for concern but Elon has vocally opposed much of that and will still remain Chairman. It seems that her role as CEO is to get Twitter making money and to make it a better place for creators/users; ultimately not a policy role.
By hiring someone who:
a. seems to be of the left and;
b. is highly skilled at executing what Twitter very specifically needs right now and;
c. tightening the scope of the role of CEO while maintaining authority as Executive Chairman...
Elon will have avoided unnecessarily alarming/provoking democrats on the platform, set Twitter up for dramatic increases in ad revenue along with improved creator features/opportunities, AND neutralized the threat of censorship returning to the platform.

Either impeach him or shut up.
Just stop talking, for the love of God, and DO SOMETHING.

President Biden’s policies have sent a message to the world—including the cartels: “the border is open.” Why is the President of the United States, who is supposed to enforce our nation’s laws, missing in action? https://twitter.com/i/broadcasts/1DXxyvNbmayKM
