Twitter CEO Elon Musk has sent a warning to Democrat President Joe Biden, Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre, and those in the media attacking him over his free speech agenda.
Musk has warned that he has an ace card up his sleeve and he’s about to play it.
Twitter’s new boss was responding to comments from the White House on Monday.
At a White House press briefing, Reuters reporter Andrea Shalal asked, “There’s a researcher at Stanford who says that this is a critical moment, really, in terms of ensuring that Twitter does not become a vector of misinformation.
“Elon Musk says there are more and more subscribers coming online, are you concerned about that, and what tools do you have – who is it at the White House that is really keeping track of this?”
Karine Jean-Pierre replied saying that the White House is “keeping a close eye” on Musk and Twitter.

Musk was not happy and fired back:
“Why are so many in the media against free speech? This is messed up.”

“This is a battle for the future of civilization,” Musk added in another post.
“If free speech is lost even in America, tyranny is all that lies ahead.”

Musk then put them all on notice and said he would play his ace card soon.
As Slay News reported earlier, Musk said he plans to publish Twitter internal files to show the public the truth regarding the company’s old censorship practices.
“The Twitter Files on free speech suppression soon to be published on Twitter itself,” Musk announced.
“The public deserves to know what really happened.”

Meanwhile, Musk and Twitter have come under attack from tech giant Apple.
Musk revealed on Monday that Apple is threatening to remove Twitter from its App Store.
The devasting move would block iPhone users from downloading Twitter’s app to their devices.
Another Twitter user shared data that shows “97.5% of Apple’s donations are to the Democratic Party.”
The same user noted that the Democrats’ anti-free speech agenda aligns with Apple’s.
“Wow, they don’t sound biased at all!” Musk joked.
