Musk said in an October 28th post that he would be forming a "content moderation council" before any decisions were made about account reinstatement or content moderation. An MSNBC executive producer is no longer employed by MSNBC.

The former president was not allowed to use social media.
It was not correct to ban Donald Trump, according to Musk. He said that he thought that was a mistake. Donald Trump didn't lose his voice because of it. I don't think it was a good idea.
