‘Your brain is too small’: Elon Musk tells Adam Schiff why it’s good that he’ll no longer be House Intel chair

December 18, 2022 | | Print Article

In a matter of mere weeks, new Twitter owner Elon Musk has nearly eclipsed former President Donald J. Trump as the focal point of the political left’s collective hatred and he infuriated his thin-skinned detractors with a brief suspension of a handful of journalists from the platform, earning the ire of Democrat politicians who benefited exponentially from past censorship of dissenting viewpoints.

Even though the accounts of the Washington Post’s Drew Harwell, CNN’s Donie O’Sullivan, The New York Times’ Ryan Mac of The New York Times, uber-influencer Aaron Rupar, unhinged leftist crank Keith Olbermann and others were quickly restored after they allegedly violated Twitter’s new policies on doxxing, the usual suspects have savaged the world’s wealthiest man, one of them being Democrat Rep. Adam Schiff.

The outgoing chairman of the House Intelligence Committee took to the platform on the eve of his customary Sunday morning CNN appearance to take a shot at Musk but quickly found out what happens when you poke the bear.

“Elon Musk calls himself a free speech absolutist, to justify turning a blind eye to hatred and bigotry on Twitter,” the Burbank California Democrat wrote. “But when journalists report unfavorable news, they are banned without warning.”

“The devotion to free speech is apparently not that absolute. But the hypocrisy is,” Schiff fumed despite his lack of similar anger for conservatives were kicked off the platform for far longer than a couple of days.

“Thankfully, you lose your chairmanship very soon. Your brain is too small,” Musk retorted.

The billionaire Tesla/SpaceX CEO and “free speech absolutist” had previously zinged Schiff over the brazenly dishonest lawmaker’s recent claim that so-called hate speech had exploded on Twitter since he took over the platform.

“False, hate speech impressions are actually down by 1/3 for Twitter now vs prior to acquisition,” Musk countered.

Schiff and fellow California Democrat Mark Takano, the historic first openly homosexual of Asian heritage to be elected to Congress sent a letter to Musk last week, demanding that he take action to restrict speech on the platform, citing figures from the Center for Countering Digital Hate, one of the pro-censorship organizations that has cashed in on the boom industry of policing political discourse and a go-to source for politicians and the corrupt media alike.

Musk wasn’t the only one to unload on “shifty” Schiff whose popularity with biased, partisan media organizations doesn’t extend over into the real world.

Schiff’s days in charge of the powerful Intel committee are numbered and he may not even be a member for much longer if Kevin McCarthy who has said that he would remove him entirely if he is able to prevail in his bid to become Speaker of the House.
