  1. That's absolutely ridiculous. He had a team of lawyers pour over their books. He knew of the possible bot problem but signed anyways. It's his lack of due diligence that he is trying to use to get out of the deal. He cant

  2.  @dennisg4053  the one that knows the facts. Do you want a legal opinion? Ann Lipton, a professor of corporate governance at Tulane Law School, said Mr. Musk’s disagreement with Twitter over spam accounts might not constitute a material breach of the deal, meaning it is a legally tenuous argument. False representations about such accounts are in and of themselves “not grounds to walk away,” she said. “They’re only grounds to walk away if they are so overwhelmingly bad that it really just fundamentally jeopardizes the economics of the deal. That’s a company material adverse effect.”

  3.  @RememberAuroraColoradoUSA  bots won't be part of discovery because musk signed a waiver of due diligence before he signed for the sale. The bot issue was always known and he signed anyways which means he bought in an as is condition.

  8.  @YukiPyro  that's not true. The billion is only the fine under the contract. Twitter will sue for alot more.

  10.  @justinreid2422  because Christians will even prey their God breaks his own set of commandments, proving their devotion to his teachings is as thin as their skin

  11. Jesus that's not even close to reality. 44 billion is nothing to the US market and not nearly enough to make commodity prices in other countries to rise. Why does your vote count as much as mine when I actually spent my life learning about the country and how it works and you, obviously not

  12.  @Cdnl4927  sure, but you don't have to back the worst imaginable dirtbag out of all of them like trump.

  13.  @FreakazoidRobots  that's not how it works. The billion is a penalty in the contract. Twitter will sue for far more. Hell, musk is still under FEC investigation over his initial purchase of shares.

  14. I doubt it. They have a signed purchase agreement. They also have a waiver of due diligence signed by musk. Now he wants out over the problem he signed a waiver for? Law doesn't work like that.

  15. Also, the FEC is looking into musk not Twitter for his illegally purchasing a controlling share in Twitter. You can't just do it the way he did be ause its illegal.
