He definitely bought Twitter to "preserve free speech" and totally not to collect data and manipulate elections, right?
- I mean he also got to burn down the most popular public platform.
Oh boy, this has got to be an FEC violation.
- Probably but no one will do anything about it
  
  Especially since the Tribunal of Six decided that government regulatory agencies aren’t actually allowed to regulate anything
- Unlikely. Almost nothing is, especially anything done by a PAC.
  
  That's only when it comes to advertising and messaging. Once you start bringing up actual government processes like registering to vote and polling location information it gets interesting. Lying about the voter registration process for instance, which this seems close to.
Fascinating. I hope Elon Musk gets more personally involved in this effort so his unique leadership can improve the odds of success.
