Markey can sue Musk/Twitter if he wants, but Congress has no constitutional powers to regulate most industries, let alone specific companies.

They did it to Facebook.

Does he even know how to use the internets?

Axios, don't ignore this. His video of T_sla crash that killed 2 keeps getting taken down

Please Axios, cover this, not just the Tesla factor, but Twitter taking down posts/content that are negative towards the owner.

I don't think it was a threat.

Clown 🤡 world 🌍😂😂😂😂🤡🤡🤡🤡💵💵💵💵💰💵💰💵

Congress will? They know how to fix shit? Like 'fix' or the 'fix is in'?

Elon only listens to the voices in his head!

We can mock our politicians without fear of govt reprisals.

I don't understand why you would buy an incredibly expensive network and set out to piss everyone on that network off to the point they'd rather destroy it than to see you succeed.

Electric cars and men on Mars...why on Earth does Markey have a problem with Musk

Markey is on the same payroll as AOC. Markey is the far left extreme and doesn’t represent the greater party

He didn’t “threaten” him. Does think a company allowing for impersonating public officials and others to spread misinformation is NOT under the purview of our elected officials!! It’s Sen Markey APPROPRIATELY exercising the oversight powers given to him by the PEOPLE!!

me thinks mocking people that have subpoena power probably isnt the best move. but elon doesnt seem like he's making a ton of 'best' moves as of late.

andrewssports Markey is such a half wit.

He mocked him because his Twitter account reads like an sjw parody account. Journalism is dead

Congress “fixing” anything 🤣 EdMarkey
