A triumphant Elon Musk sashayed this week into the headquarters of Twitter carrying a kitchen sink and the hopes of many frustrated users of the social media giant. The world’s richest man purchased the world’s most-aggravating website in the hopes of restoring freedom of speech to the platform. 

So, what could this takeover mean for Twitter and for the country? Musk has promised to restore many banned accounts, most notably that of former president Donald Trump. This is good news, by all means unlock the gates of Twitter jail.  

He has also suggested he might fire two thirds of the employees who must feel like they are about to have a meeting with the Bobs from "Office Space." Again, cutting the bloat, especially in areas that actively suppress speech is a positive step.
