Tesla, SpaceX, and Twitter CEO Elon Musk appeared to dismiss concerns about being raided by the FBI following a series of document dumps over the past two weeks revealing how much of a role the bureau played in getting content and users censored and suspended prior to his takeover of the platform.
According to journalist Matt Taibbi, who dropped the sixth “Twitter Files” installment Friday evening in a lengthy thread, the FBI acted as a “subsidiary” of Twitter in terms of managing content and viewpoints on the platform in the years immediately prior to Musk’s $44 billion purchase of the company this fall.
Musk, who has described Twitter a “crime scene,” responded to country music star John Rich, who asked, “How long before the FBI raids @elonmusk ‘s home?”
The Twitter boss quipped in response: “I don’t have a home.”
