Clearly, the problem is internal sabotage. Some employee—probably a senior manager—has fired the team responsible for maintaining Twitter’s—I’m sorry, “X”’s—live streaming feed in an attempt to take down the world’s last bastion of free speech and measured political discourse. I have it on good authority that the forensic cybersecurity team of O. Klosoff and S. Butz have been looking through commits logs and has determined that the handle of the suspected culprit is “ERM\_69\_420\_88”, but it seems unlikely that they will be able to tie that ID to an actual employee, although this individual was also apparently responsible for earlier erecting an X-shaped strobe on the building as a prank or ‘art’ installation.

Meanwhile…invest in Dogecoin! It’s definitely not a pump & dump scheme!
