Original Note:
There is no evidence that Musk tweeted the words appearing in this screenshot trending across social media. The screenshot features Elon Musk’s Twitter handle and avatar, but no such tweet appears in his feed, and there are no breadcrumbs to suggest it ever did. https://www.politifact.com/factchecks/2022/dec/09/viral-image/no-this-isnt-a-real-elon-musk-tweet-about-alleged/ https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/factcheck/2022/12/16/fact-check-fake-tweet-accuses-ex-twitter-ceo-protecting-bidens-musk-twitter-dorsey/10886715002/ https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/musk-tweet-jack-dorsey-democrats/
