It's really happening, folks!
On Monday, Elon Musk reportedly spoke with the banks assisting in his acquisition of Twitter via a conference call, telling them he planned to close the deal by Friday.
On Tuesday, the employees of Twitter actually made a list of demands (seriously) for their new boss who is scheduled to take over the company on Friday.
In response to Musk’s plans for firing the bulk of the far-left workforce, the Twitter team released a list of demands for current and future leadership -- and were immediately ridiculed for it on their own platform.
Reportedly, once Elon Musk’s $44 billion transaction for the social network is completed, he will terminate approximately 75% of Twitter’s staff, which equals 5,500 employees to reduce the size of the workforce to over 2,000.
“The mega-billionaire has told potential investors in the Twitter deal that he plans to lay off almost 75% the company’s staff, or about 5,500 employees, to reduce the size of its workforce from 7,500 to just over 2,000, the Washington Post reported, citing anonymous sources and documents,” Variety reported.
On Wednesday, Elon Musk arrived at Twitter’s headquarters in San Francisco, California with a ‘sink.’
He posted the video on his account with the caption, “Entering Twitter HQ – let that sink in!”

Quite ingenious how he acted like he wanted out of the deal while the wheels were in motion to make it happen. Probably distracted the left from finding a way to blow it up while it was in the process. He knew the lengths they would go to to keep a normal person / non-commie from having any social media control.
I asked elsewhere, but can the Brandon administration at least temporarily halt the sale to Musk?
I love how he ridiculed the New York Times. Let’s hope his new “algorithm” will not treat them kindly.
Owning it like a BOSS.
Oh, wait, he is!
The hypocrisy of the Left is infinite.
Why a sink?
Oh if only Trump would have done the same to Fedzilla…
Love it!
“I want to buy twitter.”
“You can’t!”
“Yeah, maybe I don’t want it after all.”
“You have to buy it now!”
“Ok.”
So they could let that sink in, of course!
How in the world does it take 5,500 people to run Twitter? What do these people do?
And got sued to stay in the deal and so had to settle by going through with the deal.
I plan a lot of schadenfreude over this AND I getting ready to watch MSNBC the night of the election for much more schadenfreude. (evil hahaha)
The “undersigned” should be the first to go.
Write algorithms to recognize right wing content while letting left wing and pentagon operated troll farms do their thing.
That was my first thought. What the heck are all these people doing? If they can be fired, I can only assume they aren’t needed.
“will hurt Twitter’s ability to serve the public conversation.”
Lolololo the reason he bought it was because you lefties were killing open conversation!
From the article:
WhatsApp had 35 engineers for 450 million users, and grew to a team of 50 for 900 million users.
Twitter cutting to 2,000 employees from 7,500 is not a "skeleton staff"
Sounds like 75% might not be enough!
The “undersigned” list has saved Elon some work......A good start to the 75% of the societal subversives that will need to hit the street.
