  I often think replacing a CEO is a nonsense move that doesn't really fix the underlying problems in a company but in Twitter's case I do think Dorsey is a big part of the problem. https://www.bloomberg.com/...

  YESSSSSS Elliott / Singer maybe the PERFECT hard-nosed team for this activist fight. Time to cut the overpaid deadweights & egregious stock comp, improve the ads, accelerate product velocity, monetize new avenues, etc I want to see what $TWTR can truly become! LFG 💪 https://twitt…

  So it could get worse than Twitter currently coddling white supremacists, misogynists, & those spreading disinformation ... https://twitter.com/...

  Activist investors and armchair pundits are alike in that they financially benefit from weaving negative narratives without ever building anything themselves. https://twitter.com/...

  How much worse could it get, you wondered. https://twitter.com/...

  Another example of how Republican leaning billionaires seek to control the narrative by owning media (Fox News, Breitbart, Sinclair, etc) & think tanks (Koch's) while liberal billionaires reinforce the status quo by investing relatively small funds on charities vs driving change.…

  This is actually why @ericries founded @ltse The world is awash with capital seeking yield and short term activists turn every asset into a commodity to be strip mined and flipped Long term share vesting gives safety against overnight takeovers https://twitter.com/...

  Elliott is gonna push out Jack from Twitter, force AT&T to spin out CNN, and then combine them https://www.cnbc.com/...

  $TWTR Paul Singer's Elliot Managements, an $67B+ AUM hedge funds, seeks to replace Jack Dorsey, Twitter's CEO/founder as @CNBC reported. Paul Singer's fund reported no twitter position as of 12/31, which means they most likely have acquired a stake YTD. https://www.cnbc.com/...

  Some people will play the long game to get Twitter to add an edit button. https://twitter.com/...

  Elliott's targets of late have been getting more and more famous and consumer facing: EBAY, AT&T, Softbank and now Twitter. Great one @scottdeveau @EdHammondNY @BloombergDeals https://twitter.com/...

  The far right —the corporate right —is taking over everything. Wow. Singer's Elliott Seeks to Replace Twitter CEO Dorsey https://www.bloomberg.com/... Isn't Singer the one who started the Steele Dossier for either Cruz or Rubio..?

  Twitter has been a potential target for activist investors for years. The company only has one class of stock, which means co-founder Jack Dorsey doesn't have voting control of the company https://www.bloomberg.com/... https://twitter.com/...

  ah terrific https://twitter.com/...

• @jmgrygiel @jmgrygiel on x

  Well, this would be something, especially if it happens before the election. Singer is not only an activist investor, he is an activist. He was instrumental in complementing same-sex marriage in NYS (along w Bloomberg). https://www.cnbc.com/...

  It would be so amazing if this headline was literally true and Paul Singer was putting himself forward as the next CEO of Twitter https://twitter.com/...
