Now that Elon Musk has taken over Twitter, he is making all kinds of behind the scenes moves very public and much of it is very damning for the leftists who used to be in charge of the site.
Musk’s latest drop details the efforts of the people at Twitter to get Trump banned from the site.
None of this looks good for these people.

Twitter Files part 4 drop showing executives’ approach to ‘change of policy for Trump alone’
Twitter CEO Elon Musk and independent journalist Michael Shellenberger have released another installment of internal files from Twitter with this latest batch highlighting the chaos within the company on the day after the January 6 Capitol Hill riot.
“The Removal of Donald Trump: January 7,” author Shellenberger posted Saturday night as part of a larger thread. “As the pressure builds, Twitter executives build the case for a permanent ban.”
“On Jan 7, senior Twitter execs: – create justifications to ban Trump – seek a change of policy for Trump alone, distinct from other political leaders – express no concern for the free speech or democracy implications of a ban This #TwitterFiles is reported with @lwoodhouse,” the first post read.
Shellenberger’s thread starts off by showing how Twitter employees had previously resisted calls to ban Trump from the platform but then outlined how they went about pushing for just that as calls to ban Trump intensified.

The colleague wants to know if the decision means Trump can finally be banned. The person asks, "does the incitement to violence aspect change that calculus?”
Roth says it doesn't. "Trump continues to just have his one strike" (remaining). pic.twitter.com/Qyi1sJNa0w

More like this is going to come out in the coming days.
None of it will be good.
