A new filing shows that Oracle co-founder Larry Ellison, venture capital firm Sequoia and crypto exchange platform Binance are among a cohort of investors that plan to support Elon Musk’s $44 billion Twitter takeover.

David Faber shocked his CNBC colleagues by suggesting that Elon Musk could be jailed over the lawsuit he faces from his decision to back out of buying Twitter.
 
The lone upside of being laid off is "thank goodness I don't have to deal with managing anyone's social media right now."
 
I think that Musk thought he could dig up something embarrassing to Twitter, but he never even considered that Twitter could dig up something embarrassing to him.

The world already can see those. He had to turn over text messages. Imagine what he says when he doesn't think it will get out.
 
Prince Alwaleed, Larry Ellison and who else to the rescue?

How will Elon Musk pay for Twitter?​
