It's interesting that MAGA influencers have been violating X's TOS for a long time. Elon Musk has been letting them get away with it, probably to help Trump win the election.
Today, Elon got pissed and canceled the whole crew. Now he's royally despised by them. 1/
I've been listening to the "affiliates" of ConservativeOG who lost their blue checks. Mostly, they are just screaming at each other about whether or not Laura Loomer doxed someone. 2/
Alex Jones' partner Owen Shroyer lost his blue check. White nationalist Nick Fuentes mansplained how they all got used by Elon. His voice is like fingernails on a chalkboard.
Fuentes eventually dominates the conversation. Charles Johnson offers to pay his legal fees. 3/
But "ConservativeOG" talked about his "website" where his "affiliates" work. So, what is that? His profile lists a PAC website, not a company. 4/ conservativepac.com
In the fine print, it does talk about "affiliates" of this SuperPAC, but not the "company" he mentioned. 5/
ConservativePac is a small PAC based in Atlanta. 6/
All of its money comes from an LLC in Wyoming. 7/
This looks like the founder. 8/
He's also part of the company "Connect Social" and--ah--now it starts to fall into place. 9/
This is a media marketing company posing as a PAC, which Elon Musk has been platforming to help Trump get elected. It's tied to Alex Jones. The content they push is paid media with paid influencers. 10/
Bottom line: Elon Musk let paid Trump influencers manipulate reach on X, violating X's terms of service, until they pissed him off today.
You can figure out who is working for Greg Disser (ConservativeOG) by looking for anyone who lost their blue check today.

"I’ve been next to suicide attacks. I’ve been the target of an Al-Qaeda plot to kidnap me. And throughout all of this, I felt that my sacrifices meant something. What I found in the last two weeks is, not only do those sacrifices not matter, but that we’re vilified without any evidence or reason for that." 2/
"The pause on foreign assistance... From a humanitarian and development and stabilization perspective, we know what that means. It means people are dying." 3/
Once again, "Wired" explains what's going on. Impressive. 1/
"Elez’s privileges include the ability not just to read but to write code on two of the most sensitive systems in the US government... Housed on a secure mainframe, these systems control, on a granular level, government payments that in their totality amount to more than a fifth of the US economy." 2/ wired.com/story/elon-mus…
Yikes. A 25-year-old who was hired last week now has access to one-fifth of the U.S. economy. 3/
This group thinks a woman started World War I.
Ugh. Ian is being treated like an expert in geopolitics and is totally pro-Russian. Please tell me Adrian isn't Elon Musk. He's been in this space for four hours.
They won't let feminists in and want to call it the "Bro Room" or something like that. Dude Room?
Nah, it's Elon. He's now screaming Andrei, who is calling him "Elon." Andrei questioned Elon calling people "subtards" and suggested there should be more on-the-job training.
I think they're all about to kill Andrei. All pretense is dropped about Adrian not being Elon. 2/
"Outta" said Elon "snapped" in that XSpace and has to take "small doses of Ketamine" because people talk about deporting him. WOW.
It's amazing that Elon can go from 0 to 300 in seconds. Scary. 3/
