So Elon Musk has officially terminated the Twitter buyout. That's it, ladies and gentlemen, it's all over. Your hopes and dreams, your saver.

0:07.1

Savier. He has not, he has not, he has not come through for you. But some people are arguing that Elon Musk's latest move, canceling the deal is actually 40 chess.

0:16.8

We've actually known for some time. It's been widely speculated, I should say, that Elon was trying to get a better deal, better bang for his butt.

0:24.4

This could be him challenging Twitter, arguing that it's a breach of contract because of the spam bots. But the CEO, Praga Agrawal, already said he's going to war to make sure this deal happens.

0:36.6

Elon backs out. Now a lot of people are like, oh, Elon can't do that because then he'll get sued and he owes a billion dollars. That's not how it works.

0:43.2

Here's how it works. Twitter can go to war. They can go to the courts and they can try and force Elon Musk to pay out the billion dollars or buy the company.

Or they can go to him and settle. And this means Elon Musk could get a settlement agreement. That is him offering to buy the company at a lower amount.

1:20.8

And then obviously you guys know the very, very serious news.

1:24.8

Yo, the assassination of Shinzo Abe, the longest serving prime minister in Japan, very popular. We have the media already smearing him.

1:32.6

Right when the dude dies brutal, man, I can't stand the press. So we'll talk about all of that before we get started.

1:38.0
