This is an unprecedented attempt to stretch a law intended to apply in Europe to political activities in the US. It also patronizes European citizens, suggesting they are incapable of listening to a conversation and drawing their own conclusions.

If you know me, you know I'm committed to truth and fairness. Here's the truth. Not a single authentic user on X saw IBM’s, Comcast’s, or Oracle’s ads next to the content in Media Matters’ article. Only 2 users saw Apple’s ad next to the content, at least one of which was Media

Thank you !

This is unconscionable and wrong.

It’s an exceptionally rare thing – in life or in business – that you get a second chance to make another big impression. Twitter made one massive impression and changed the way we communicate. Now, X will go further, transforming the global town square.
This is a sad day for X users around the world, especially those in Brazil, who are being denied access to our platform.
I wish it did not have to come to this – it breaks my heart. The Brazilian Constitution says, "Any and all censorship of a political, ideological and artistic

Soon, we expect Judge Alexandre de Moraes will order X to be shut down in Brazil – simply because we would not comply with his illegal orders to censor his political opponents. These enemies include a duly elected Senator and a 16-year-old girl, among others.

If not for X, there would be darkness.
X usage is at an all-time high and continues to surge.
To all of our users -- of every interest, political party, and point of view -- You will always have a place to engage and join the global conversation freely and safely.
Legacy gatekeepers are yesterday’s “news.” 
It’s hard to imagine a world without X after a weekend like this past weekend.
Let’s stick together in the days ahead, and stick to X always.
Before you tune in tonight to the Spaces with and , here's some data about who is on the X platform in the U.S.:
37 million Democrats
32 million Republicans
34 million swing voters
The conversation is happening on X. Set your alarm – 8PM ET.

COMMUNITY NOTES FTW!!! 
Fact-checking and moderation doesn't belong in the hands of a few select gatekeepers who can easily inject their bias into decisions. It's a democratic process that belongs in the hands of many.
And as we've seen on X since debuted,

Don’t want to leave you hanging by a thread… but Twitter, you really outdid yourselves! Last week we had our largest usage day since February. There’s only ONE Twitter. You know it. I know it. 
Another milestone for the Everything App: is our first partner for the Account, which will debut later this year.

I’m not as prolific as (yet!), but I’m just as committed to the future of this platform.
Your feedback is VITAL to that future. I’m here for all of it.

The FTC Commissioners clearly targeted our company for political reasons. To say this is troubling is an understatement. We’ve worked in good faith for years with the FTC and thought they had been as well. We need answers immediately.
