the majority of Twitter employees would be Democrats. Most of them are live in the Bay Area, under 40 and college educated.
Very disappointed in this show by Musk.

Where is the Industry-wide Suppression MAGA has been claiming?
Both parties had access to these tools. For instance, in 2020, requests from both the Trump White House and the Biden campaign were received and honored.
The Biden team didn't ask to specifically censor the laptop story at that mass scale.
a couple of Twitter execs winged out.
the only official Democrat Twitter spoke to, was concerned about the Free speech implications.
Hunter Bidens laptop is a non-story because he doesn’t
work at the White House or for the US Government.
Taibbi tweeted "there’s no evidence - that I've seen" that the federal government had a role in suppressing the Hunter Biden laptop story

McConnell skewers Trump for dinner with Kanye, Fuentes, says Trump unlikely to win in 2024
Posted by uptiger1997 on 11/29/22 at 3:48 pm
https://www.foxnews.com/politics/mcconnell-jabs-at-trump-says-hes-highly-unlikely-to-be-elected-potus-after-dinner-with-nick-fuentes-ye
Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell condemned former President Trump for his dinner with Kanye West and white nationalist Nick Fuentes, saying anyone meeting with individuals with views of antisemitism or white supremacy is "highly unlikely to ever be elected president of the United States."
"There is no room in the Republican Party for antisemitism or white supremacy," McConnell, R-Ky., said Tuesday. "And anyone meeting with people advocating that point of view, in my judgment, are highly unlikely to ever be elected president of the United States."
McConnell was referring to Trump’s dinner last week with Ye, formerly known as Kanye West, and Fuentes at Mar-a-Lago.
WHITE HOUSE SLAMS TRUMP'S DINNER WITH NICK FUENTES, SAYING BIGOTRY AND HATE HAVE 'NO PLACE IN AMERICA'
House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., on Tuesday, also criticized the meeting.
"I don’t think anybody should be spending any time with Nick Fuentes," McCarthy said. "He has no place in this Republican Party."
McCarthy, though, seemingly defended Trump, saying he had come out "four times and condemned" Fuentes, adding that he "didn’t know who he was."
When pressed further on Fuentes, McCarthy said: "I condemn his ideology. It has no place in society."
Fuentes, a white nationalist, has a history of making racist remarks and engaging in Holocaust revisionism—though he has claimed that he does not deny the Holocaust.
Fuentes, meanwhile said on his show the dinner was "very interesting" and said that he didn't think Trump knew who he was.
"I don't think he knew that I was me, at the dinner, let's put it that way," he said. "I don't know if I'm going to say he didn't know me… I'm not sure about that, but certainly he didn't know I was me when I arrived at the dinner, and I didn't mean for my statements and my whole background to sort of become a public relations problem for the president."

The Trump Administration turned down opportunities to drop charges against Assange
Lopez Obrador reiterated the asylum offer he had made for Assange a year ago, and said that before Trump was replaced as U.S. president by Joe Biden last January, he had written him a letter recommending that Assange be pardoned.

MEXICO CITY, Jan 3 (Reuters) - Mexican President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador said he had sought a pardon for Julian Assange from former U.S. President Donald Trump before he left office last year and repeated his offer of asylum for the Wikileaks founder on Monday.

Kanye West claims Donald Trump 'screamed at him' for asking Trump to be his VP in 2024

https://www.rollingstone.com/politics/politics-news/kanye-west-2024-presidential-bid-tweets-1234636705/
The rapper and former leader separately announced their intention to run for U.S. President in 2024 recently, and they met up at Trump's Mar-a-Lago resort in Florida this week, where West surprised Trump by asking him to be his running mate.
“He basically gives me this would-be mob-esque kinda story,” West said, “talking to some kid from the South Side of Chicago trying to sound mobby or whatever, he goes into this story about all that he went through to get Alice Johnson out of jail, and how he didn’t do it for Kim, but he did it for me. But then he goes on to say that Kim is [bleep] and you can tell her I said that. I was thinking like, that’s the mother of my children.”
Possibly the most troubling part of the video comes at the end, when West seems to call for a Christian theocracy in the United States. “Since we know — and all the Christians in America that love Trump — know that Trump is a conservative, we’re going to demand that you hold all policies directly to the bible.”
Trump, apparently, did not react well to Ye’s return to the political arena. “Trump started basically screaming at me at the table, telling me I was gonna lose. I mean, has that ever worked for anyone in history?” He chuckles. “I’m like, hold on hold on, you’re talking about Ye.”
The conversation came after their visit to Trump’s Floridian resort earlier this month. The Daily Beast reported that West brought Fuentes with him to the meeting, a fact the rapper seemed to confirm in a tweet later on Thursday night, posting a screen grab of a text exchange discussing the dinner, referring to Fuentes’ presence.
In a statement to Axios, Trump referred to an unexpected guest: “Kanye West very much wanted to visit Mar-a-Lago. Our dinner meeting was intended to be Kanye and me only, but he arrived with a guest whom I had never met and knew nothing about.”
In a "Mar-a-Lago debrief" video posted on Twitter on Thursday, West claimed that Trump was "perturbed" by his request and yelled that he was going to lose his campaign during their dinner.
"I think the thing that Trump was most perturbed about, me asking him to be my Vice President. I think that was lower on the list of things that caught him off-guard. It was the fact that I walked in with intelligence," West said.

HOENIX — Outgoing Arizona Gov. Doug Ducey said Wednesday his Republican administration will ensure an orderly transition to Democrat Katie Hobbs, his first public statement on her victory.
Ducey met with Hobbs in his office more than a week after her victory became clear and days after the last ballots were counted. However, defeated Republican Kari Lake has not conceded and has worked since the election to draw attention to voters who say they were affected by a problem with ballot printers at some polling places in Maricopa County.
Ducey called to congratulate Hobbs the day after The Associated Press and other news outlets called the race, but he had not made a public statement about the outcome before Wednesday.
Ducey was co-chair of the Republican Governors Association, which spent more than $10 million on television ads attacking Hobbs, but he was not an enthusiastic supporter of Lake. He endorsed her rival in the GOP primary and, though he endorsed the entire GOP ticket for the general election, he did not campaign with Lake.

An example of Musk's errantic behavior. This is one of the people that oversees Twitter's most profitable department.
quote:
Robin Wheeler, Twitter’s head of ad sales, seems to have left the company yet again, just over a week after Elon Musk reportedly had to convince her not to resign.
On Friday evening, Platformer’s Casey Newton reported that Wheeler had been fired from the company, though the details of why are currently unclear. Shortly after, Wheeler herself tweeted: “To the team and my clients….you were always my first and only priority,” followed by the salute emoji that has become a sign that you’re leaving the company. She did not immediately reply to The Verge’s request for confirmation that she had been fired. Twitter doesn’t have a communications department to take such requests.
It’s just the latest twist in the story of ad sales executives at Twitter. Earlier this month, its top advertising executive, Chief Customer Officer Sarah Personette, resigned. Then, on November 10th, it was reported that Wheeler, then VP of US client solutions, had resigned along with head of trust and safety Yoel Roth, but was convinced by Musk to stay.

This is why advertisers are fleeing from Twitter... which btw drives 90% of it's revenue. Did Musk deceive advertisers after having multiple meetings with them about the direction of Twitter and how its OK, their ads wont be shown near extremist tweets? Or just change his mind at the drop of a hat?
Either way, don't expect mass ad spend on a platform that seems to be in turmoil and leadership is in flux. How does that help with Twitter's debt payment?
