Summary
Dave Rubin of "The Rubin Report" talks about Elon Musk buying Twitter. It has only been one day since Elon Musk shocked Big Tech and announced his Twitter buyout plan. Elon made it clear that he wants to use the social media platform to promote free speech, but what else is going on behind the scenes? Dave explores what could really be keeping Twitter execs up at night and what is really at stake if the Elon Musk purchase is successful. Dave also does a special "ask me anything" question-and-answer session on a wide-ranging host of topics, answering questions from the Rubin Report Locals community.

| 0:00.0 | How you doing? Freedom lovers, I'm Dave Rubin. This is the Rubin Report Direct |
| 0:26.6 | message. It's April 15th in the year of 2022. The video that you just saw that |
| 0:32.1 | cold open we just showed you. That was Elon Musk. You've heard of this guy. He |
| 0:37.0 | was at the big opening event for Tesla in Austin, Texas. As you know, he took |
| 0:42.6 | him out of Cali about a year or two ago amidst the lunacy of COVID craziness in |
| 0:47.5 | California and the taxes and the big government and the regulation and all that |
| 0:52.2 | stuff. He moved him to free Texas and they had this bananas event. If you haven't |
| 0:56.6 | seen the video, don't stop watching this. Okay. Obviously not. But there is video |
| 1:01.5 | that you can find on the computer machine where they had drones and a really |

| 1:37.1 | about that though. It's about actually how do we defeat the woke and build new |
| 1:41.6 | things? That's exactly what Elon Musk is all about. And that's what's happening |
| 1:46.0 | in this Twitter situation right now. That's what I've been trying to do for quite |
| 1:48.7 | some time and many others. And the signal has been sent around the universe |
| 1:53.3 | throughout the galaxy. It is time to fight. Speaking of fighting people, although |
| 1:59.1 | Facebook would not let us put ads up about it and Twitter would not let us put |
| 2:03.1 | ads up about it. I am going on tour. That's right. It starts this Tuesday in West |
