"I’m immensely grateful to him for entrusting me with the responsibility of protecting free speech, turning the company around, and transforming X into the Everything App.”

But it isn't the everything app. Oh, wait? Is it? Am I using it for everything?! No. I don't use it for anything and neither should you.

And she didn't protect free speech. And she didn't turn the company around (unless you count the Hitler stuff). So she's taking credit for the Hitler stuff? Because the tone of her statement seems to be, "We did it!!!" Maybe she thinks she's going out on top after her greatest achievement? Much more likely than, "oh noooes we r the bad guyz!?" from the fucking CEO.

She peaced out 3 months after 2 years. I wonder if she had shit that paid out on her anniversary.

Well, according to one source:

At X, her base salary was reportedly $6 million, according to Market Realist. In addition to this, she was eligible for up to $2 million in annual performance bonuses and received $4 million in stock options spread across a three-year term.

So if she stuck around another year she'd have gotten another ~$1.3 million in stock options. Guess she figured it wasn't worth it.

she was just a standin for trump, who was still the actual chairman/ceo, she is put there to take the blame for X's criticism.

AKA a GLASS cliff situation.

Thoughts and prayers for the next CEO to not get Grok-blocked.

Thankfully, Linda Yaccarino’s Golden Parachute worked perfectly fine.
