Holy shit. So Elon decides it would be nice to know what region of the world people are posting from. So they add that little feature.
2 hours later they figure out that many Trump supporters with millions of followers are posting from other countries. Surprise!
That "feature" is now gone.

Trump has approved a 28-point plan to end the war between Russia and Ukraine. “The deeply troubling details now circulating show what Trump wants: to help the Russian president,” Phillips Payson O’Brien argues, “and to weaken Ukraine, perhaps fatally.”

This proposal so pro-Putin (with Trump cashing in to boot) that it’s not even a serious start to negotiations.

The President of the United States just called for Democratic members of Congress to be executed. "HANG THEM", he posted.

“Quiet, quiet, piggy!”

The word he really wanted to use. That look in his eye. The aggressive forward lean and the finger pointing. It all betrays the violent abuser that lies beneath the facade. He can’t hide it when his ego gets hurt. Women can see it. So can men, if we’re honest with ourselves.

We actually heard this murder on audio. There is audio of MBS's hit squad planning, conducting and covering it up. This is NOT fake news, and the gentleman he's referring to was dismembered...alive...to cover up his journalistic coverage of Saudi corruption.
Reporter to MBS: "U.S. intelligence concluded that you orchestrated the brutal murder of a journalist..."

Trump: "Fake news...He's done a phenomenal job. You're mentioning someone who was extremely controversial. A lot of people didn't like that gentleman that you're talking about…things happen."
