Yep, absolutely no way that chick isn't try to get him off the platform, at all costs.
No reason to use Twitter anymore if that woman is in charge. An ad executive that's super woke and beholden to the WEF and GARM initiative crowd? Talk about a disaster.

I don't understand why you would hire a corporate media goon to run the site you bought to be an open source of information.
This is a massive win for the powers that be.

Elon keeps fooling people he’s some conservative or libertarian. He’s just another megalomaniac who likes the sound of his own voice. A lot.

They lassoed Elon back in. It took a little while but once Elon figured out how and why Twitter is sustainable (the free use of federal government and quasigovernment owned server farms "owned" by google, Amazon, etc.) he had no choice but to bow down to his masters (the three letter agencies).

Twitter is an important cog in the wheel of the censorship industrial complex. This is not a conspiracy theory. This IS a conspiracy.
The “Censorship-Industrial Complex” is just the Military-Industrial Complex reborn for the “hybrid warfare” age.
This report is extensive and was put together my reputable reporters "Susan Schmidt, Andrew Lowenthal, Tom Wyatt, Techno Fog, 3 others and intro by Matt Taibbi.

I dont think twitter is going to blow all the goodwill they have earned since Musk took over in some blatent backpedal back into the WEF/Davos fold.
Yes, the new CEO has WEF on her credentials. But that doesn't guarantee that she is one of their true believers. People do change sides...
Between this and Carlson this week, Musk is making some moves that could rival, or even help to end the old MSM propaganda machine. That would literally change the USA< and the world.
Now, would some of the powers-that-be want to be in on that future media...sure.
But, they cannot blow their cover in the very beginning of Twitter 2.0 when everyone is paying attention.
That said, this new CEO should be able to bring back some of those advertising dollars...

They will not blow their cover abruptly. The new CEO is too smart for that. It will be your typical "boiling the frog" scenario that will take place over a year. For example, eventually people like Matt Walsh will not be able to post on Twitter the reporting and satire he creates.

Seems to be the case.
Terrible optics on the hire.

One doesn't get to be Elon Musk without the backing of the global cabal and our intelligence agencies. They pick all of the winners at that level. Drop Twitter like a warm Bud Light.

There's a LOT of skyscreaming about this hire.
Every single thing Elon does is measured to each potential end. I am not concerned whatsoever which strategic alliances he sets up. Whatever his cause really is, be that actual real support of 1A or not, he will be accomplishing it.
So, the only question is whether or not you trust Elon's motives. That's a fair question. He does want to put chips in our heads etc... no billionaire is like any one of us. We can glimpse the game they play, but we do NOT play it and we will never fully grasp the gravity of each move they make.
So, to that end, if all that stands between 1A surviving or falling is Twitter, then we need only look in the mirror for why that is.

The BS COVID scam and everything censorship/banning-wise since then by these left-wing Jacobins have woken up way too many for that to work.
They would have to be going back to the MSM before Obama.
Boiling the frog over decades...
The Jacobins, nor DAVOS, won't stand for that. They want the entire enchilada now. Or else...

This is just pure hero-worship, Argument from Authority, fallacious BS.

Sounds like this lady from Comcast is the frontrunner for the gig. I don't see how she isn't going to be some left winger...i guess from the linkedin snipit its a good sign she doesn't have her pronouns in her profile?? is that the best we can ask for in todays world?

“It has been an absolute honor to be part of Comcast NBCUniversal and lead the most incredible team,” she said in a statement Friday. “We’ve transformed our company and the entire industry.”

I wonder how long Tucker will last on Twitter (if that's going to be his main platform going forward)?
Posted on 5/12/23 at 11:09 am to ScottFowler
For anyone interested...here's a video of her interviewing Musk a month ago. It's a good interview but a bit long. I wonder if this was the moment he decided she's the one for the CEO job.

I don't worship Elon at all. I don't trust him totally, but he has earned a bit of trust. But I have VERILY enjoyed watching him shite all over people that hate 1A.
What you sky screamers don't seem to understand is that the second he acquired Twitter, the optics are such that Twitter is now "right wing" and "propaganda" on the left.
If you want Twitter to stick around, it cannot be an absolute echo chamber. He has to feed a pound of flesh to the left and give them reason NOT to mass exodus. He has had control of the coding side for about a year. He has a team that will answer directly to him and do whatever the hell he wants. Also, owner still has the right to fire whoever he pleases.
He is COUNTING on you sky screamers to bitch and moan so the average joe leftist potential Twitterer will come back into the fray.
Just my $0.02.
I don't trust anyone that wants to put microchips into my brain. They are not beholden to anyone. But they're VERY interesting to observe. They are playing a game none of us have a clue about.
