Twitter's top lawyer Vijaya Gadde, who has shepherded the platform through some of its most contentious political battles, cried at a virtual meeting as she expressed concerns about what Elon Musk's leadership could mean for the company.

Shortly after billionaire Elon Musk bought the powerful social media platform, top Twitter lawyer Vijaya Gadde called a virtual meeting with the policy and legal teams she oversees to discuss what the new ownership could mean for them.

Twitter spokesperson Trenton Kennedy said Gadde became emotional when discussing her team’s impact and the pride she feels in them. Gadde, who has worked at Twitter since 2011, is the key executive charged with overseeing Twitter’s trust and safety, legal and public policy functions. She is seen internally as Twitter’s “moral authority” and the executive tasked with handling sensitive issues like harassment and dangerous speech.

“I think everyone at Twitter, regardless of how they feel about the news, is feeling reflective and emotional,” said one Twitter employee. “We’ve gone through a lot in the past two years and I think it’s generally instigated a lot of reflection. I think this was more of an acknowledgment of the uncertainty everyone is feeling right now.

Boo Hoo Hoo sorrynotsorry Karma karmaland How many people unjustly had their accounts suspended due to massive bot attacks & Twitter selectively“protecting” certain types of accounts that promoted their agenda? elonmusk Knesix _Genevieves_ TheToadours

is crying allowed

Evergreen content

Vijaya Gadde was the real force behind censorship and blocking of conservative tweeters! Elon take over and getting rid of censorship is probably was traumatic event for her as she lost all that influence and power she exercised in guiding the censorship task force!

SeetheAndCope CryHarder

Maybe she’ll jump

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

She got paid. Those are tears of joy

Well, she doesn’t have to worry about it now does she?

Literally no one cares.

😂😂😂

Cry in hell

Yes, she manipulated the sheep.

It was just virtual tears though!

Oh yes, your tears are delicious.

Cry us a river. BuhBye

All fake CNN news, she was probably eating fresh onions in the metaverse.

Nice!

We cried for years not knowing what to do with Twitter and Facebook censorship to our basic rights and freedom of expression. So much lies so much hatred to anyone that dared to oppose the establishment democrats rhetoric.

elonmusk 👍🏻🇧🇷

Freaking indian ruining free speech 🤣

cry more because I'm not listening. I think it's little 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Yeah good riddance

Sniff sniff.. LoL

Yesssssss

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂😂😂

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 Muito triste….. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Bye bye

Good

RIP BOZO

😭😭😭😭

She doesn’t need to cry she got her money and is fired now just get out of from there and keep your prejudices with herself it’s now Musks property it’s his own will.

The future of Twitter looks a lot brighter to me now that Musk is taking out the garbage left wing loony left activists.

How much, again, was Vijaya Gadde being paid annually in salary and equity?

yeah I'm sure she cried ALL THE WAY TO THE BANK.

vijaya Bye-bye

Please, somebody, leak the video.

It could mean you just got shitcanned for a start

Ha ha ha

Ouais mais c’est pas toi qui décide 🤭

Damn politico doing Vijaya dirty lol

hahaha

Before breaking down?

She never cried while censoring the reports of children being abused and suppressing hunter Biden laptop story.

Quite satisfying to see that happening. Justice is served. paraga vijaya nedsegal

You always start at the top.

Lol bye.

Good riddence.

Good riddance

BYE, FELICIA

Couldn't have happened to a nicer person.

jtLOL I read that he fired her

So professional

It was a good day.

Nobody deserves to be publicly fired and shamed as much as this lady. Truly got a god complex from having the power she had. Her tears were prolly delicious.

😭😭😭

She's the chick that got people banned for saying learn to code. Good riddance.

Funny how 'disinformation' winds up being true over and over again. Things you could get banned for saying two years ago are now established fact. That's why self-important, ignorant journalists and government bureaucrats don't get to decide what's acceptable speech.

oh, this makes me so happy

“Gadde herself has advocated strongly for ensuring that Twitter’s policies protect its most vulnerable users” major eye roll.

Has she tried coping and seething?🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

HHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHA TIME IS A CIRCLE MOTHAFUKAS, IT'S OUR TIME AGAIN

Good riddance! She led the consortium of fake narratives with leftist agenda

People sure can dish it out... yet

LJK3rd

In 2022 we are so privileged that we got people out here crying over a fancy message board. Take your millions and go buy a hankie. These people couldn't handle a typical fps voice chat.

I want to see the video. I wish to experience her anguish. It will please me.

jtLOL I didn’t even know she was a she. Oh well.

She is crying for not being able to grab more $ and execute power any more. Just a piece of 💩 should be removed.

Make her own Twitter AND WE SAY

jtLOL

RIP Bozo

Communist tears are crocodile tears. They’re not capable of human emotion, it’s entirely for show.

Geez, could have saved having a meeting and just called me. Woulda told you you were all getting whacked.

oh noes.

“Shepherded” = acted as political activist with a publicly traded company, diminishing investor returns by banning and running large segments of potential customers.

tasty tears

Actual lib tears. Satisfying. Make them all cry.

Turns out taking away the rights of millions of Americans might have consequences after all. I hope she cries for a very long time.

Cry harder

Now vijaya will have all the time in the world to experience Newton’s 3rd Law !

Ah her tears are like sweet nectar, you won't be missed lady.

Karma is a bitch.

The liberal media is absolutely finished now. It's about friggin time.

She richly deserved to be fired 1 second after Musk took control. She’s a horrible person, who suppressed material principally because it hurt Democrats

CRY MORE.

She cried at the prospect of free speech. Yes, we get it. That's very concerning to totalitarians.

Karma biotch, learn to code.

Quitr litteraly lib tears

Now we know what that means

Boo hoo. Don’t care.

Seems like a reasonable adult

Good riddance to self appointed censors who undermine democracy. Bye Vijaya. Good-byeee, Good byeee, wipe the tear baby dear from your eyeee. Coz it's hard to go I know... Learn to bartend.

'Won't someone think of the Democratic Party?!' she cried. 'How will they possibly win if Twitter doesn't protect their interests!?'

Which is why she doesn't have a job anymore. It's not a preschool it's a business!

LOL

She should worry about her next booster.

“He’s going to come in and run us like a real company. He’s going to expect us to turn a profit. It’s horrible!” 😂

Cry more libs!

Is he going to update the logo?

I love it

The witch is gone. Good.

Learn to code still a thing?

God works in mysterious ways. May God guide Musk all the way.

This is an adult?

'the company, which has spent years creating elaborate guidelines to reduce the amount of vitriolic and threatening content on its platform.' Where? Twitter refuses to take action on the rape & death threats women get every day from so-called 'trans activists'.

She's concerned that her Marxists woke ideology can o longer can be forced onto millions of people.

learn to code

'she expressed concerns about what Elon Musk's leadership could mean for the company.' i think she means, her concern for her job. lol cry me a river.

Cry more

I feel like getting drunk on liberal tears tonight!!!

Liberal tears taste so delicious 😋

Maybe she can learn to code 😝

Even if Vagina Gadde is concerned about the leadership, that doesn’t warrant crying at a meeting. Totally unprofessional.

Cry me a river

She should learn to code

Suck it up buttercup!

so funny

Trump won

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

(Yawn). Who cares.

vijaya now you’re just a user like the ones you’ve discriminatorily restricted and banned. And elonmusk will boost this company. Just from the protection of free speech. Now it’ll thrive to its full capabilities, not limited by control freaks.

Cope harder 😏

Boo hoo, Vijaya! Guess you'll have to build your own Twitter. Meantime, fetch us some coffee, cupcake.

Good.

She’s crying over the fact no other company is gonna pay her anything close to the $15 million Twitter was paying her.

Lol laterrrrrr

Cry more b!tch

Awww अलविदा

Love the taste of sweet bitter leftist tears! 😋

Bye commie 👋🏽

Bye

It's only the beginning

I would have paid money to see that.

has she tried going off and making her own twitter?

Learn to code

So, so good to see the unrepentant venal lying censor Gadde get canned.

Hahahahhahahhahahahhahahahah

HA. HA. HA.

😂🤣😂🤣😂 Her bias was INSANE and this is a good thing she is gone. Her on Rogan was showed how clear the left bias really was on here

Oh me! Oh my! No more fascist intimidation into group think for all! Free speech and critical thought prevail! Free speech and critical thought are alive and well! Kudos elonmusk!

And now she’s fired

Bye bye b*tch! ✌

LMAO

Bye bye vaj-jay-jay.

ShaneDoolittle

It means she doesn’t get that bloated paycheck anymore.

Cry More Libs 😢 😪

Hahaha 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Crybabies belong in cribs, not boardrooms. No self-respecting professional would allow that to happen. Let us all know how that lawsuit with Jennifer Ruth Green, naming you as a primary defendant, pans out for you.

Lol

Sorry this is happening to them. They will be ok. They know how to code, plus they can go build their own Twitter.🤷‍♀️

6 month old article FFS

“There’s no crying at Twitter!”

Finally a good news! Thrilled that she’s gone!

LOL.

I remember watching a JRE episode where Tim Pool pointed out all the issues with their selective censorship. That was like 4 years ago. They continued to do these things because they didn’t think anyone could do anything about it. Zero sympathy for that clown.

Boo hoo.!!! Suck it up , it’s gonna get worse for you.

Delicious

Outstanding

Crying all the way to the bank, as they say….

Lol … What would happen if the lawyer encountered a real problem?

The book animal farm should be mandatory reading now a Twitter

Never heard of this vijana women but she sounds week

Big effort to get her fired for clicks with this crap? Otherwise what is this? Because it's not journalism.

Typical chick

No more censoring. Only a communist would cry about that.

😂😂😂Pathetic! But hilarious! 😂😂

😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

😂

Now he needs to buy Disney,

😭😂

I’m sure it is sad to lose a censorship scheme that is overwhelmingly used against one side of the political spectrum. I have one question: Does vijaya happen to be politically aligned with the side that benefits rather than suffers from said scheme? elonmusk

Elon saved the company from a fate worse from death liberal communist wokism

😈

Kid gloves there,

What lawyer cries after a hostile takeover? What an idiot. WAAYY overpaid.

He's going to be a awesome owner

Oh well, too bad for her

There is a war going on and people are dying, but let me be mad about Elon buying Twitter.

BOO HOO 🤣😂

Good riddance

How repugnant! I mean her not the buyout....

Same Vijaya same

perhaps vijaya can reflect on the past 6 years as she was clearly a large of the problem that has plagued Twitter, thwarted growth since moving towards the far left and has lead directly to the acquisition. Well done vijaya

She should learn how to code

Lawyers are usually the ones who make other people cry. What a reversal.

Is everyone that works at Twitter Indian?!

Lawyers can’t effing cry. So absurd.

Y’all better buckle up......it’s bout to get bumpy

W

Gig is up.

Cried?!! Cried?!? Haha. WTF are we doing here.

vijaya won’t have to worry about Elon’s plans. She will be gone day one. Deservedly so.

She led the Hunter Biden disinformation campaign. She should be fired for that action alone. How is she still employed? vijaya thoughts? Tender your notice?

I bet I know what it means for her job, though.

She did the best she could with her time there. And now the next person will do the same. It’s always is and has always been the way things go. And that’s life…

unbelievable I would say it's a cult... but it goes deeper than that.

Get ready for the deep dive pain. She’s about to be outed as a 2020 co-conspirator

Cry me an effin river! You reap what you sow. FREEDOM!

LOL - THIS IS GLORIOUS!!!! Bye vijaya - no one wants you fascist censorship.

vijaya is obviously unprofessional.

Imagine being that soft and triggered over the prospect of free speech in America. I can't even...

what 🤡 cries over a corporation 😂😭

Lol, these people are all children

Poor baby Vijaya, her days of censoring are coming to an end

The embarrassing levels of melodramatic freak out over Musk possibly making Twitter slightly less censorious is telling as to who these people are and how little credit they give to the average American at determining solid information from speculative opinion.

Ah yes, the woman who said there is no political bias at Twitter.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA that's hilarious

Is there any chance that could stop parroting Musk's 'free speech' frame? Twitter is no more blocking free expression when it moderates than Politico is by choosing not to publish or amplify every word I write. birnbaum_e woodruffbets

What they did to Twitter is regrettable. Maybe she is crying because she knows that all the deceptive Twitter practices will be public knowledge at some point.

I have a bad feeling about Elon's plans. What about all those far right replacements people made that never took off? People don't want to be around that behavior, that's part of why Trump lost.

What do they know we don't?

I would suggest it means her base premise in her previous court battles is no longer applicable and she, like others, will be acting like a squirrel in the road with an 18 wheeler bearing down on it.

The purge can't come soon enough
