  1. *Shock video is not for everyone* Everydays.One

    Look before it’s been removed. The video is not for children!

    Let’s take a moment to appreciate how much effort he puts into content for us !!!🥰

  2. Whistle blower who said he wasn’t influenced by the deal….Of course he wasn’t, a statement like that revels a lot about the blowers honesty, or lack of it 😮

    1. @only me it’s like playing a game and reaching the last level where you can afford to spend a lot of money on a single item, just to collect it, because there is nothing else left for you to do in the game.

  3. In all reality [how ever you define that], how different is this video-cast commentary any different than Twitter, or the power of those whom own shares in the parent company that owns CNN. It is amazing how those within the `soup’ do not realize `they are soup!’. Elon Musk is convincingly in the mix because he wants to make a difference; now whether that difference ends up be to the benefit of ALL HUMANKIND, or just he; the fact he’s willing to put his money where his intentions are speaks volumes!

  4. To obtain financial freedom, one must either be a business owner, an investor or both, generating passive income, particularly on a monthly basis.

    1. I countlessly share my experience with co-workers at work, on how I became financial stable on $13,000 from $2,000 investment in 7 days of his trading.

    2. The crypto market is highly profitable with an expert trader just like Bernie Doran. I got recommended to him and since then my financial life has been a success.

    3. The best feeling is knowing you’re going to make a gain today and tomorrow, and you’re 101% sure, Bernie, you’re a Genius.

  5. Remover the ‘w’ from twitter’s name? What a stupid suggestion. Perhap Musk should remove the ‘ter’ from the name. It would be more accurate to reflect what he is doing with it and those that use it.

  6. This suggests its never a good idea to order on line, after a late night out.
    Maybe it was an impulse buy.

  7. Funny how AOC complains about the $8 verified user charge while touting how she pays her tshirt makers fair wages.

    The $8 fee will help pay the twitter staff for the work they do … and it’s a voluntary fee if you decide to be a verified account.

    I hope AOC doesn’t pay for a verified account.

  8. The left is going to lose their mind now that their echo chamber has been destroyed from Elon allowing free speech on the platform again lol
