Happy Tuesday! (Unless you don’t like free speech. Then it’s “Democracy is Doomed, Elon Musk is Worse Than Hitler Day.”) Twitter Agrees to Sell to Elon MuskElon Musk will be the new — sole — owner of Twitter. The Twitter Board of Directors unanimously agreed to accept Musk’s offer of $54.20 per share (or roughly $43.4 billion). “Free speech is the bedrock of a functioning democracy, and Twitter is the digital town square where matters vital to the future of humanity are debated,” Musk said in a statement. “I also want to make Twitter better than ever by enhancing the product with new features, making the algorithms open source to increase trust, defeating the spam bots, and authenticating all humans.” Meanwhile, to make sure disgruntled employees don’t mess with the platform, Twitter’s source code has been locked down. This according to Bloomberg. Musk will now be facing the wrath of the left and the forces of globalism. The Stream's John Zmirak has dropped a column with a simple request: “Pray for Elon Musk.” Trump Gives Thumbs Up to Musk Buying Twitter, but Isn’t Interested in ReturningSo will Trump be allowed back on Twitter? Too early to tell. However, Trump himself says he’s not interested. "I am not going on Twitter, I am going to stay on Truth," Trump told Fox News. "I hope Elon buys Twitter because he’ll make improvements to it and he is a good man, but I am going to be staying on Truth.” Trump said he’ll personally be joining his Truth Social app within the next several days. Biden ‘Concerned’ About Musk-Twitter Deal?Well, this could make you spit in your corn flakes. When asked about the Twitter deal, White House flack-caretaker Jen Psaki said, “No matter who owns or runs Twitter, the president has long been concerned about the power of large social media platforms.” Funny, he had no such concerns when his campaign was actively working with large social media platforms to quash negative stories. A new report from Media Resource Center shows Big Tech stepped in to censor anti-Biden stories 646 times in the past two years. Biden had zero concerns when tens — perhaps hundreds — of thousands of citizens had their voices silenced on social media. He certainly had no problem when those large social media platforms actively manipulated their algorithms to boost his campaign and hurt Trump's. Or when social media titan Mark Zuckerberg spent $419 million to “bribe” local election officials to fix the 2020 election. Only now, when one company will be in the hands of somebody who will allow the free flow of information — allowing truth to be shared — is Biden “concerned.” Meanwhile, Psaki told a panel last week that, thanks to COVID, Biden hasn’t been able to travel much and thus people haven't been able “at all times to see what the Biden magic is.” True. In fact, last week he was talking to reporters on the White House lawn … and made an Easter Bunny magically appear to shoo him away. In related news, the body of Texas National Guard Specialist Bishop E. Evans has been recovered. Evans drowned while attempting to rescue illegal immigrants from the Rio Grande. The illegals he was rescuing turned out to be drug smugglers. When asked if the White House felt any responsibility for Evans’ death (given he wouldn’t have been there had the administration not left the border wide open), Psaki flippantly blamed Texas officials. Harris Faulker of Fox News is right. She called Psaki’s cold response “soulless.” Along The StreamFrom Pastor Shane Idleman, “Thunderous Applause for Murdering Children ...
