It seems Elon Musk isn't quite finished getting rid of Twitter employees.

Since acquiring the company for $44 billion last month, Musk laid off more than half of Twitter's employees, claiming the workforce was too large and focused too much on content moderation, platform safety, product development and marketing.

Musk also fired dozens of employees who criticized their new boss.

But he's not done yet.

On Sunday, Musk posted an apology for Twitter running "super slow" in many countries, blaming the app for the shortcomings.

In his Tweet, Musk said:

"Btw, I'd like to apologize for Twitter being super slow in many countries."
"App is doing >1000 poorly batched RPCs just to render a home timeline!"

One of Twitter's engineers—Eric Frohnhoefer—quotetweeted Musk's tweet.

He claimed:

"I have spent [about] 6 yrs working on Twitter for Android and can say this is wrong."

Musk then responded to the employee asking:

"Then please correct me. What is the right number?"

Followed by:

"Twitter is super slow on Android. What have you done to fix that?"

Frohnhoefer replied, agreeing there are issues with the app, but coding—as Musk implied—was not the problem.

You can read Frohnhoefer's detailed response below.

After being criticized for publicly correcting Musk, Frohnhoefer replied Musk should ask his questions in a non-public manner if he doesn't want public replies.

So in true Elon Musk fashion, he fired Frohnhoefer.

On Monday, Frohnhoefer tweeted an image of his locked computer screen, with the words, "This Mac is locked. The system PIN is required to use this Mac," indicating Frohnhoefer is no longer an employee of the company.

His tweet was captioned:

"Guess it is official now."

While some said Fronhoefer shouldn't have called out his boss on a public platform, others defended him saying Musk was publicly throwing his employees under the bus from the beginning.










Sadly, it seems that Frohnhoefer isn't alone.

He tweeted yesterday more employees were fired for standing up to Musk.

"Just woke up to the news that more Tweeps were summarily fired last night."
"At this rate no one will be left to run Twitter."

According to those who were fired, they received an email reading:

"We regret to inform you that your employment is terminated immediately."
"Your recent behavior has violated company policy."

We wonder how long it will be before Musk runs out of employees to terminate.

AG Pam Bondi's Brother Blames 'Rabid Partisans' After Getting Absolutely Walloped In DC Election

MAGA Republican President Donald Trump has often bragged about his overwhelming victory over Democratic Vice President Kamala Harris, claiming he won by a landslide. But while he did manage to finally win a popular vote in 2024, something he lost in 2016 and 2020, it was hardly a landslide.

About 90 million eligible, registered voters didn't bother to vote at all in 2024, while Trump garnered only ~77 million votes, VP Harris received about ~75 million—a difference of only ~2 million which is less than the population of Trump's hometown of Queens, New York City.

Kristi Noem's Past Views On National Guard Come Back To Bite Her After She Backs Trump Amid LA Protests

California Governor Gavin Newsom called out the hypocrisy of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem after sharing a clip from last year showing she'd once criticized the Biden administration for considering deploying the National Guard when Democrats suggested it as a response to Texas' immigration crackdown at the time.

That's noteworthy because Noem has made an about-face, defending President Donald Trump's decision to deploy the National Guard to Los Angeles amid ongoing protests in response to his administration's immigration raids by claiming he'd taken this drastic step "for the safety of this community ... to keep peace."
