Twitter, Facebook and Google are all government controlled.

Most likely, CIA. That is one of their expert abilities. Media control.

Dates back to the 1950's with project Mockingbird.

So how does Twitter get under the control of elon musk?

This is a platform that can change world governments.

No way the CIA allows it to change hands unless Musk is under their control.

Or maybe something else.

The CIA came after the NSA hard with the snowden release. I am not a fan of snowden. I think he was a bad actor working for CIA.

The NSA is pissed off and decides to take control of Twitter and place their favorite autist in control, elon musk.

To be honest, sounds a bit crazy, but i actually think, that is how it happened.
