In reply to the discussion: Ron Filipkowski: It's on now. (Loomer v Musk) [View all]Emrys
(8,065 posts)55. Not sure how clear the tweets are from that version, so here are versions lifted from Twitter:

BREAKING:
🚨🚨🚨
@elonmusk has removed my blue check mark on X because I dared to question his support for H1B visas, the replacement of American tech workers by Indian immigrants, and I questioned his relationship with China.
Looks like Elon Musk is going to be silencing me for supporting original Trump immigration policies.
I have always been America First and a die hard supporter of President Trump and I believe that promises made should be promises kept. Donald Trump promised to remove the H1B visa program and I support his policy. Now, as one of Trumps biggest supporters, Im having my free speech silenced by a tech billionaire for simply questioning the tech oligarchy.
Elon has decided to retaliate by removing my blue check and demonetizing me.
I guess he doesnt really believe in Free speech after all.

BREAKING:
🚨🚨🚨🚨
@elonmusk also just canceled all of my subscriptions and sent a message to all of my subscribers saying Laura Loomer deactivated her subscriptions as a way to demonetize me.
Thats a lie. I didnt do it. Why would I cancel my own subscriptions?
This is @elonmusk retaliating against me for speaking truth.
@elonmusk is a free speech fraud.
Big Tech just doesnt want to be held accountable.
What am I guilty of?
Supporting Trumps own POLICY of banning H1B visas and fighting for American tech workers.
@realDonaldTrump Elon wants to attack your loyalists.
This is unacceptable. https://x.com/lauraloomer/st...

That's only part of her tweet. Here's the text from the whole, angry tweet:

Blimey. Either Loomer has to stop being right, or I have to check myself into some sort of rehab facility.

Donald wants Elon for his money. Elon wants Donald for his power. Loomer has neither money nor power.
