The rant between Elon Musk and Twitter has been going on for a while now. And it seems that the earlier furious Musk is slowly losing the game. Letters and proposals have been flying past the two parties for some months now. Musk had been a forefront player until recently but now Twitter seems to have an upper hand.
The conclusion has been made from the recent events that have been taking place. It seems like Musk is reconciling and re-analyzing his early moves. The billionaire has come to an agreement to acquire the platform at the original price that he had considered. Reports suggest that this move was made after his legal team sensed that he would lose ultimately if they went on with the trial. Finally, amidst all this mayhem, he also has been facing a federal investigation.

It was unsealed Thursday. The investigation was in relation to Musk’s conduct in connection with the acquisition of Twitter. The social media platform wants these documents hoping that they have key issues in regard to the case. Though the platform has been asking for these papers for months, still there has been no response. Musks’ legal team issued a “privilege log” of papers to be withheld in discovery, which included emails and presentations.
