Tesla CEO Elon Musk is now in charge of Twitter, CNBC has learned.

Twitter CEO Parag Agrawal and finance chief Ned Segal have left the company’s San Francisco headquarters and will not be returning, sources said. Vijaya Gadde, the head of legal policy, trust, and safety was also fired, the Washington Post reported.

Musk had until Friday to complete his $44 billion acquisition of Twitter or face a court battle with the company.

Vijaya Gadde, the head of legal policy, trust, and safety was also fired,...

Gee, even her title sounds so Stalinist / animal farn reverse-speak!

[TornadoAlley3]

What should Trump’s first tweet be?

[Augie]

I wonder how many files the former employees have destroyed on their way out?

Do you have any idea how difficult it is to destroy files at a huge IT company like Twitter? Everything is digitized on giant storage arrays that are replicated/geo-split/backed up/backed up again/etc.

A few assholes might delete some stuff, but they aren't going to destroy anything. All that accomplishes is making some work for the team that's responsible for data security.

Musk should have a chat with this executive, and the associated Project Veritas video

>>Twitter executive calling Elon Musk mentally handicapped, “special” and saying he has “aspergers.”

This Twitter exec goes on to say that Twitter is “not here to give people free speech” <<

He must, take Twitter out of SF. WAAAY behind enemy lines. Even tho many work remotely, MUST get outta that cesspool that does impact the culture.

[ducttape45]

Interesting to contemplate. Would he get a better crop of potential employees to choose from if he did?

[existentially_kuffer]

A piece of trash!

[RetiredArmy]

Musk: my first move it to allow President Trump to start burning Twitter down with his messages. Move is on you Muskie. Let Trump in.

[bobcat62]

Move the HQ close to Starbase. How’s McAllen for a corporate HQ?

Vijaya Gadde...

The head snake (or the snake's head) is gone! Hooray!

[caww]

Creeps flashing Obamas book as he leaves...

When you know you're soon going to be shown the door....Vijaya Gaddep>

[caww]

Flow of Twitter already changing....

[Dr. Sivana]

Golden handcuffs being paid off. Twitter execs won’t be leaving poor.

It should keep them from attacking the company publicly, at least. My lousy 4 weeks severance required that of me.

[caww]

Will censor for food!

[caww]

Started DAY ONE in Style...

[caww]

It’s happening

Entire team of data engineers let go at twitter.....

Those laid off giys still have their Homeland Security salaries to fall back on. They will be okay.
