New defamation suit against Elon Musk over tweets reveals how the billionaire spreads misinformation and lurks on secret Twitter accounts.

Elon Musk‘s erratic posting on X, formerly Twitter, has come back to haunt him once again as a 22-year-old Jewish man pursues a defamation case over tweets in which the tech mogul baselessly suggested the recent college graduate was an undercover federal agent posing as a neo-Nazi during a street fight between far-right groups. Musk’s excruciating March 27 deposition in the matter, which a judge ordered released to the public over the objections of the CEO’s lawyer, reveals the extent to which he has continually sabotaged both himself and the social media platform he owns.

    I would call it a combination of a very well-funded, well-crafted campaign, well-funded and well-crafted by people other than Donald Trump,

    Any reputable sources about this point?

      That Donald Trump didn’t fund his own campaign and that it was well-crafted by Republican campaign operatives? You really need sources for that? Because that’s true for pretty much every presidential campaign.

        Not the funding, but rather that he is not the real leader of his campaigns and political objectives, as I think you imply there’s some people in the shadow using him as a front. I’m talking more than some influence or lobbies. I prefer to read reputable new sources about it.
