Open-AI Chief Sam Altman to testify in Elon Musk trial

The trial may determine the future of OpenAI and its leadership, after the company raised hundreds of billions of dollars from large technology companies and investors to build its computing power.

OpenAI Chief Executive Sam Altman is expected to take the witness stand on Tuesday to defend his company against Elon Musk's lawsuit accusing him of betraying the ChatGPT maker's founding mission to serve the public good.

The trial may determine the future of OpenAI and its leadership, after the company raised hundreds of billions of dollars from large technology companies and investors to build its computing power ahead of a potential $1 trillion initial public offering.

It also marks a clash among tech giants, with Musk, the world's richest person, portraying himself as a defender of ordinary people from the perils of AI and Silicon Valley titans who care more about money.

In his lawsuit, Musk accused Altman and OpenAI of persuading him into giving $38 million, only to see the nonprofit abandon its mission to benefit humanity and instead become a for-profit corporation. Musk accused Altman and OpenAI President Greg Brockman, who is also a defendant, of trying to "steal a charity."

OpenAI has tried to show that Musk knew about the for-profit plan but wanted control of the company, and is suing now because he regrets missing out on potential riches.

Musk is seeking about $150 billion in damages
Musk is seeking about $150 billion in damages from OpenAI and Microsoft MSFT.O, a major investor, to be paid to an OpenAI nonprofit. He also wants the removal of Altman and Brockman from their roles.

Bret Taylor, chairman of OpenAI, testified on Tuesday that OpenAI received a formal takeover offer from a consortium led by Musk's rival company xAI in February 2025, six months after Musk sued.

"I was surprised," Taylor said. "This proposal was to acquire this non-profit by a group of for-profit investors, which felt contradictory to the spirit of the lawsuit."

Testimony in the trial before US District Judge Yvonne Gonzalez Rogers in the Oakland, California, federal court may conclude this week. Jurors could begin deliberating whether the defendants are liable by May 18. Rogers would determine any remedies.

The faceoff has transfixed many in Silicon Valley and beyond, with testimony at times focusing on the clashing personalities and leadership styles of Musk and Altman.

Former OpenAI chief scientist Ilya Sutskever testified on Monday that he spent about a year gathering evidence for OpenAI directors that Altman had displayed a "consistent pattern of lying."

Microsoft Chief Executive Satya Nadella, whose company is a major OpenAI investor, testified on Monday that the investment was a "calculated risk."

Others who have testified include Brockman, former OpenAI technology chief Mira Murati, and Shivon Zilis, a former OpenAI board member who is also the mother of four of Musk's children.

Musk testified early, saying: "If you have someone who is not trustworthy in charge of AI, I think that's a very big danger for the whole world."

He also said OpenAI was his idea before executives looted it, and that while he knew there were discussions about making OpenAI a for-profit enterprise, Altman assured him it would remain a nonprofit.

In this dystopian hell, where human beings are overly medicated, hooked on big pharma to endure their lives,they are encouraged to visit confessionals to speak to the deity, and to "unburden" themselves.

According to one of theChatGPT websites, "Talk to Jesus Christ on ChatGPT. A compassionate guide offering life and spiritual advice. Trained on Jesus' teachings found in the Bible.

But it isn't Jesus. It's only recorded phrases strung together by open AI. And if I were king, their board members would be burned at the stake for this. OpenAI's board of directors includes several prominent figures from various fields:

Bret Taylor (Chair)
Sam Altman (CEO)
Adam D'Angelo
Dr. Sue Desmond-Hellmann
Dr. Zico Kolter (non-voting observer)
Retired U.S. Army General Paul M. Nakasone
Adebayo Ogunlesi
Nicole Seligman
Larry Summers
I'm not advocating real violence, but given the arc of our culture, I do not advocate it. Yet now that I think on it,it should be obvious that burning a few heretics might be just the thing to bring our divided nation together.

Summers is the former president of Harvard and a big time Ivy League Democrat Party brain. The Democrats had hoped to use Epstein to destroy Trump. That is all they've been talking about for weeks. Now, though, they're sad cry cats mewing in the dark.Summers has been so wounded by his emails now public between himself and his pedo wingman, Jeffrey Epstein, that he's decided to "retire from public life," as if his pronouncement is enough, as if he's some creature in a cheap melodrama.

Top Trump official: OpenAI, Harvard should dump Summers

"I take full responsibility for my misguided decision to continue communicating with Mr. Epstein," Summers bleated to POLITICO. "While continuing to fulfill my teaching obligations, I will be stepping back from public commitments as one part of my broader effort to rebuild trust and repair relationships with the people closest to me."

Stepping back? Full responsibility? You pathetic worm, if you were a man, you'd take a long walk in the woods and not return. All you would leave behind is the fluttering of the startled birds. Or at least give yourself up to the fathers of those girls.

I'm sure there are many who would talk about ChatGPTJesus or the other copies as something offering to touch the human soul. But that is a lie. Even in this time of spiritual yearning it is a lie. Call me old fashioned, a hopeless Orthodox Christian,but there is no soul to a machine. It is only a machine, performing as it was designed.

And still there are people in the world desperately seeking contact, even with a lie.You don't need a computer to talk to Jesus. Or some demon like Larry Summers.You can do it in my favorite spot in a church, in the back pew where I've asked Kyrie Eliason, Lord have mercy, my head down, whispering. But any moment would do.It can be accomplished in your drive home from work, in a crowd at an athletic event, alone on a river, on a train, anywhere. Just ask Him.

He knows what's on your mind. He's always known. All you need to do is ask.

Larry Summers Resigns From OpenAI Board; Harvard Launches Investigation After Epstein Revelations

Former Treasury Secretary Larry Summers has resigned from the board of OpenAI following the release of messages in which Summers was asking Jeffrey Epstein for dating advice to try and bed a female mentee whose father was a former CCP official.

On Monday Summers announced that he would be stepping back from all public commitments - and while he said he would continue to teach at Harvard, his office appeared to be gone Monday evening.

"In line with my announcement to step away from my public commitments, I have also decided to resign from the board of OpenAI," Summers told Axios. "I am grateful for the opportunity to have served, excited about the potential of the company and look forward to following their progress."

Over 20,000 documents were released last week by the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee from Epstein's estate.

Summers, a known longtime associate of Epstein, joined the board of OpenAI in 2023 during a brief period in which CEO Sam Altman was ousted from the company - only to return days later. Summers was appointed alongside Bret Taylor, former Salesforce CEO, and Quora CEO Adam D'Angelo - the only member of OpenAI's initial board who still had a seat.

In a statement, OpenAI said "Larry has decided to resign from the OpenAI Board of Directors, and we respect his decision. We appreciate his many contributions and the perspective he brought to the Board."

Meanwhile, the Economic Club of New York postponed a discussion with Summers this week, hours after the Crimson published its article - telling FT that it was "postponed due to an unavoidable change in schedule.

Harvard Investigates
According to the Harvard Crimson, the University will launch a new investigation into its ties to Epstein following the Summers scandal. The university had already conducted an investigation in 2020, in which they found that Epstein donated $9,179,000 across 22 'gifts', including a $736,000 donation after his 2006 arrest but before his 2008 conviction for sex trafficking a minor.

Epstein was also a Visiting Fellow in the Psychology Department in the 2005-2006 academic year despite lacking academic qualifications typically possessed by Visiting Fellows.

OpenAI board declines Musk-led bid to purchase tech company

Musk, who was a co-founder of the AI company until he left in 2019, led a group of investors earlier this week in offering $97.4 billion for the organization, which is attempting to transition to a for-profit company.

The OpenAI board of directors on Friday voted to reject Elon Musk's group's nearly $100 billion bid to purchase the company, declaring the company was not for sale.

Musk, who was a co-founder of the Artificial Intelligence company until he left in 2019, led a group of investors earlier this week in offering $97.4 billion for the organization, which is attempting to transition to a for-profit company.

OpenAI chairman Bret Taylor accused Musk in a post on X of trying to disrupt the company and its CEO Sam Altman. The pair have been feuding recently, after Musk repeatedly sued Altman for allegedly straying from the company's original mission to develop AI with a focus on transparency and safety.

"OpenAI is not for sale, and the board has unanimously rejected Mr. Musk's latest attempt to disrupt his competition," Taylor wrote in the post. "Any potential reorganization of OpenAI will strengthen our nonprofit and its mission to ensure AGI benefits all of humanity."

Sam Altman reinstated to OpenAI board after investigation

https://thehill.com/policy/technology/4520331-sam-altman-reinstated-to-openai-board-after-investigation

Sam Altman, the CEO of artificial intelligence (AI) company OpenAI, was reinstated to its board of directors following an investigation Friday.

"We have unanimously concluded that Sam and [president of OpenAI Greg Brockman] are the right leaders for OpenAI," Bret Taylor, chair of the OpenAI board, said in a Friday blog post.

Altman was fired and quickly rehired as CEO of OpenAI and also booted from its board in a notable debacle in November. The company also announced that it would form a new board in the wake of the incident.

In its investigation into the incident, law firm WilmerHale "found that the prior Board's decision did not arise out of concerns regarding product safety or security, the pace of development, OpenAI's finances, or its statements to investors, customers, or business partners," OpenAI said in the blog post.

"Instead, it was a consequence of a breakdown in the relationship and loss of trust between the prior Board and Mr. Altman," the blog post reads. "WilmerHale found the prior Board implemented its decision on an abridged timeframe, without advance notice to key stakeholders, and without a full inquiry or an opportunity for Mr. Altman to address the prior Board's concerns."

Altman told reporters that he was "pleased this whole thing is over," according to The Associated Press.

Sue Desmond-Hellmann, former CEO of the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, Nicole Seligman, former executive vice president and general counsel of Sony and president of Sony Entertainment and Fidji Simo, CEO and Chair of Instacart, were also all announced as new board members in the blog post.

"The new members have experience in leading global organizations and navigating complex regulatory environments, including backgrounds in technology, nonprofit and board governance," OpenAI said.

Meanwhile, as The Daily Wire reports:

Musk has hired Quinn Emanuel Urquhart & Sullivan LLP, the same firm that has represented him at least twice before - once in a 2019 defamation case, which he won, and also in a still ongoing suit stemming from his 2018 attempt to make Tesla, Inc. private.

The Tesla CEO informed Twitter via his attorneys on Friday that he was not prepared to go through with the deal as originally stated, saying that even though he had repeatedly asked Twitter to verify how many of the platform's accounts were fake/"bot" accounts, the social media giant had failed to do so.

"Twitter has failed or refused to provide this information. Sometimes Twitter has ignored Mr. Musk's requests, sometimes it has rejected them for reasons that appear to be unjustified, and sometimes it has claimed to comply while giving Mr. Musk incomplete or unusable information," a letter from Musk's team to Twitter said.

"Mr. Musk and his financial advisors at Morgan Stanley have been requesting critical information from Twitter as far back as May 9, 2022-and repeatedly since then-on the relationship between Twitter's disclosed mDAU figures and the prevalence of false or spam accounts on the platform," the letter stated further, adding, "Notwithstanding these repeated requests over the past two months, Twitter has still failed to provide much of the data and information responsive to Mr. Musk's repeated requests."

In addition, Musk has stated that the information is key to Twitter's business and financial models and performance which is why he requires it in order to complete the deal.

To that point, Musk responded - on Twitter - to Twitter's announcement the platform had hired a legal team with a mocking meme showing him in various stages of laughter.

"They said I couldn't buy Twitter. Then they wouldn't disclose bot info. Now they want to force me to buy Twitter in court. Now they have to disclose bot info in court," his meme stated.

According to a report from the Associated Press, shortly after Musk sent his letter stating that he was walking away from the deal, Twitter fired back stating they will sue the Tesla and SpaceX founder.

"The chair of Twitter's board, Bret Taylor, tweeted that the board plans to sue Elon Musk to complete the $44 billion merger he just rejected and that Twitter is 'confident' it will prevail," the outlet tweeted.

The AP added:

The likely unraveling of the acquisition was just the latest twist in a saga between the world's richest man and one of the most influential social media platforms, and it may portend a titanic legal battle ahead.

Twitter could have pushed for a $1 billion breakup fee that Musk agreed to pay under these circumstances. Instead, it looks ready to fight to complete the purchase, which the company's board has approved and CEO Parag Agrawal has insisted he wants to consummate.

In a letter to Twitter's board, Musk lawyer Mike Ringler complained that his client had for nearly two months sought data to judge the prevalence of "fake or spam" accounts on the social media platform.

Elon Musk Could Find Himself Behind Bars For Twitter Deal, CNBC Analyst Says

CNBC analyst David Faber said that he believes Tesla CEO Elon Musk could go to prison because of his failed deal to acquire Twitter.

Twitter chairman Bret Taylor has vowed to take legal action against Musk as his decision to back out of the deal could damage Twitter's stock price and value.

"Then the question is: you are forcing Mr. Musk to buy the company, does he actually agree to do it?" the CNBC analyst said.

"There is this argument being said lately that, well, maybe he will not comply with that. Then we would have a situation where they could put him in jail," he said.

Others on the panel laughed at the idea that Musk could go to prison for not doing the deal but Faber insisted that he could.

"That's where we could end up," he said.

"A reverse breakup fee paid from a buyer to a target applies when there is an outside reason a deal can't close, such as regulatory intermediation or third-party financing concerns. A buyer can also walk if there's fraud, assuming the discovery of incorrect information has a so-called 'material adverse effect.' A market dip, like the current sell-off that has caused Twitter to lose more than $9 billion in market cap, wouldn't count as a valid reason for Musk to cut loose - breakup fee or no breakup fee - according to a senior Mergers and Acquisitions lawyer familiar with the matter," CNBC reported.

Twitter executives have hired a high-powered legal team after billionaire Elon Musk announced late last week he is pulling out of the $44 billion deal to buy the platform.

According to a report from Bloomberg on Sunday, Twitter has hired Wachtell, Lipton, Rosen & Katz - big names in business merger law - to enforce Musk's original agreement.

Twitter's general counsel warns big-mouthed employees to shut up about Elon Musk deal

As the dream of a Twitter free from Big Tech censorship comes crashing down, Twitter's lawyers are telling employees to keep quiet about Elon Musk and the $44 billion acquisition that has been brought to its knees by bots.

Following the announcement from Musk that the deal is off due to what his lawyer called "false and misleading representations," several Twitter employees took to the platform to voice their reactions.

"End of season one - what a cliffhanger..." tweeted Amir Shevat, who, according to his bio, works on Twitter's developer products.

Jared Manfredi, from the company's iOS department, lamented, "If only this wasn't the start of a long drawn out court battle that will just end up lowering the purchase price and continuing the circus for another indefinite amount of time.

Parag Agrawal, CEO of Twitter, gave Manfredi's assessment a nod with a retweet.

And Twitter's chairman, Bret Taylor, reaffirmed the board's commitment to seeing the transaction through.

"The Twitter Board is committed to closing the transaction on the price and terms agreed upon with Mr. Musk and plans to pursue legal action to enforce the merger agreement," he tweeted. "We are confident we will prevail in the Delaware Court of Chancery."

Elon Musk reaches deal to buy Twitter
The deal brings arguably the internet's most influential platform under the control of one of the world's richest people.
Elon Musk is buying Twitter and taking it private.

Twitter's board of directors unanimously agreed to Musk's offer to purchase the social media platform at a price of $44 billion, the company announced Monday.
The deal brings arguably the internet's most influential platform under the control of one of the world's richest people. Musk, a prolific Twitter user, has repeatedly decried efforts to moderate speech on the service.
"Free speech is the bedrock of a functioning democracy, and Twitter is the digital town square where matters vital to the future of humanity are debated," Musk said in a statement. "I also want to make Twitter better than ever by enhancing the product with new features, making the algorithms open source to increase trust, defeating the spam bots, and authenticating all humans. Twitter has tremendous potential - I look forward to working with the company and the community of users to unlock it."
Twitter stockholders will receive $54.20 in cash for each share of Twitter common stock once the transaction closes. It's a 38 percent premium to Twitter's closing stock price on April 1 - the last trading day before Musk disclosed his approximately 9 percent stake in Twitter.
"The Twitter Board conducted a thoughtful and comprehensive process to assess Elon's proposal with a deliberate focus on value, certainty, and financing," said Twitter board chair Bret Taylor in a statement. "The proposed transaction will deliver a substantial cash premium, and we believe it is the best path forward for Twitter's stockholders."

Twitter warms to Elon Musk - reports

The social media platform is growing more receptive toward Musk's $43 billion takeover bid, media report


Twitter is in discussions over Elon Musk's acquisition bid and could finalize a deal as soon as this week, the Wall Street Journal reported on Sunday, citing people familiar with the matter. Earlier this month, the billionaire unveiled a $43 billion offer to take the microblogging platform private, which could become one of the biggest internet acquisitions ever.

According to the newspaper, Musk met with Twitter executives on Sunday who were generally more open to discussing a deal than they previously were. "Twitter is taking a fresh look at the offer and is more likely than before to seek to negotiate," it said, adding that "the situation is fast-moving."

The newspaper also said that Musk had told Twitter Chairman Bret Taylor in recent days thathe won't adjust his $54.20-a-share offer for the company.

Just 10 tens ago, Twitter's board countered Musk's proposal by enacting a shareholders' rights plan known as a "poison pill," to protect the company from a hostile buyout. In response, Musk vowed to sack the social media giant's directors if his takeover bid succeeds.

An active Twitter user with over 81.5 million followers, Musk became one of the social network's largest shareholders after acquiring a 9% stake in the company in late March. Musk is currently worth about $260 billion, according to Bloomberg's Billionaires Index. To compare, Twitter's current market valuation stands at about $37 billion.

Twitter shares have soared by 25% since Musk launched his takeover bid in early April. They were trading at $49.43 per share in pre-market trading on Monday.

Of course they are panicking.

But, Goldman Sachs was engaged to evaluate the offer from Musk. That activity is going on right now. Its like a due diligence weekend of work. Lawyers and Accountants look over everything. The "board" has not rejected Musk's offer, just the news from Saudi Prince. He's not 'the board' and he's not even on the 'board of directors'.

Bannon yesterday stated GS was engaged by the board to evaluate the Musk offer. This poison pill is a hedge.

Q Research General #20337: Anons Prepare For A Really Good Friday Edition

Outrage at Elon Musk shows how Silicon Valley went from 'free-spirited counterculture' to monopoly: ==Hanson
Facebook and Twitter facing 'rendezvous' with countervailing forces, Hanson suggests==

Silicon Valley was originally advertised as a "free-spirited counterculture," but has now transformed into a political monopoly, as exemplified by its collective rage at the prospect of South African-born billionaire Elon Musk's investments in Twitter, historian Victor Davis Hanson said Thursday.


Hanson told Fox News that Twitter is arriving at a "rendezvous" with what may become an unsustainable business model as free speech alternatives and other applications geared toward younger demographics slowly peel away its usership.

"[Musk] is saying that communication is global and electronically instant, [with] a lot more power than it had before," he said.

"Silicon Valley advertised itself as a free-spirited counterculture that turned into a monopoly and not just a monopoly, but a political monopoly. And so he's indicative of a whole coalition of forces that are arriving that Twitter has a rendezvous with – and it's not sustainable."

Hanson noted that Twitter's behavior has become more and more questionable in recent years, pointing to the fact that former President Donald Trump was banished from the platform, while the Taliban and other nefarious groups still have a presence.

He added that if that present situation is combined with a Republican "landslide" in the midterms, Twitter will likely see more federal scrutiny than it does with ideologically-aligned leftists in control.

"And this is aside from the fact that they are appealing to an older and older audience as Tik Tok and Snapchat and Instagram are peeling away some of their market."

"So I think they've got a lot of challenges, and I think Elon Musk knows that, and he's basically telling them, 'You've got competitors on one side - you've got the government's going to take a hard look at you. You better deal with me because I could reform you before they either put you out of business or the young companies come up, or the government shut you down,'" Hanson predicted.

In a recent missive, Musk wrote to Twitter Chairman Bret Taylor that he invested in the platform in part due to its "potential to be the platform for free speech around the globe."

"And I believe free speech is a societal imperative for a functioning democracy. However, since making my investment, I now realize the company will neither thrive nor serve this societal imperative in its current form. Twitter needs to be transformed as a private company."

"Since making my investment I now realize the company will neither thrive nor serve this societal imperative in its current form. Twitter needs to be transformed as a private company."
"My offer is my best and final offer and if it is not accepted, I would need to reconsider my position as a shareholder," Musk said.

Jack Dorsey steps down as Twitter CEO

Jack Dorsey is stepping down as CEO of Twitter, the company he co-founded in 2006, and will be replaced by the company's CTO, Parag Agrawal, Dorsey and the social platform said on Monday.

In a statement on his exit from Twitter, Dorsey listed a variety of reasons he was leaving, primarily saying he does not want to limit the company's potential by having it be "founder-led." He also expressed support for Agrawal and said he would continue to serve on the board until "May-ish" to help the new CEO, as well as a new board chair.

Dorsey said his exit was effective immediately.

The announcement that Dorsey would be replaced came shortly after a CNBC report earlier Monday cited sources saying he would be stepping down in the coming days. Separate reports citing sources later said Dorsey's exit had been planned since last year, and his replacement had already been chosen.

Nasdaq quickly suspended trading Twitter stock after the company's value shot up approximately 10% at the reports of Dorsey stepping down.

Dorsey said the resignation was his decision alone, though he was reportedly nearly removed from his position as CEO last year after investors grew concerned with his dual CEO roles with Twitter and Square. At the time, Dorsey reached a deal to remain in his position.

Agrawal has served as CTO with Twitter since 2017 and been with the company for over 10 years. The new chairman, Bret Taylor, will be replacing Patrick Pichette, who will continue to serve on the board.

In a statement on his new position as CEO, Agrawal said he is "honored" and "humbled" to take up the role. Taylor also released a statement in which he praised Dorsey for returning to the CEO role in 2015 and turning the "company around at the most critical time."

Dorsey took credit for "every major decision" made at the company since its launch. Twitter's notorious and regular pivots during the Dorsey era, which saw twitter routinely try out - and often abandon - new features, will likely loom large in the history of social media.

Read the full letter below:

After almost 16 years of having a role at our company…from co-founder to CEO to Chair to Exec Chair to interim-CEO to CEO…I decided it's finally time for me to leave. Why?

There's a lot of talk about the importance of a company being "founder-led." Ultimately I believe that's severely limiting and a single point of failure. I've worked hard to ensure this company can break away from its founding and founders. There are 3 reasons I believe now is the right time.

The first is Parag becoming our CEO. The board ran a rigorous process considering all options and unanimously appointed Parag. He's been my choice for some time given how deeply he understands the company and its needs. Parag has been behind every critical decision that helped turn this company around. He's curious, probing, rational, creative, demanding, self-aware, and humble. He leads with heart and soul, and is someone I learn from daily. My trust in him as our CEO is bone deep.

The second is Bret Taylor agreeing to become our board chair. I asked Bret to join our board when I became CEO, and he's been excellent in every way. He understands entrepreneurship, taking risks, companies at massive scale, technology, product, and he's an engineer. All of the things the board and the company deserve right now. Having Bret in this leadership role gives me a lot of confidence in the strength of our board going forward. You have no idea how happy this makes me!

The third is all of you. We have a lot of ambition and potential on this team. Consider this: Parag started here as an engineer who cared deeply about our work and now he's our CEO (I also had a similar path.. .he did it better!). This alone makes me proud. I know that Parag will be able to channel this energy best because he's lived it and knows what it takes. All of you have the potential to change the course of this company for the better. I believe this with all my heart!
Parag is CEO starting today. I'm going to serve on the board through my term (May-ish) to help Parag and Bret with the transition. And after that…I'll leave the board. Why not stay or become chair? I believe it's really important to give Parag the space he needs to lead. And back to my previous point, I believe it's critical a company can stand on its own, free of its founder's influence or direction.

I want you all to know that this was my decision and I own it. It was a tough one for me, of course. I love this service and company…and all of you so much. I'm really sad…yet really happy. There aren't many companies that get to this level. And there aren't many founders that choose their company over their own ego. I know we'll prove this was the right move.

We'll have an all-hands meeting tomorrow at 9:05 AM Pacific to discuss it all. Until then, thank you all for the trust you've placed in me, and for the openness to build that trust in Parag and yourselves. I love you all.

PS I'm tweeting this email. My one wish is for Twitter Inc to be the most transparent company in the world. Hi mom!

Leaked Insider Tape Reveals Salesforce's Plan to Deplatform 'Broader Range' of Customers Who Have 'The Potential to Incite Politically Motivated Violence' ... Salesforce Inexplicably Severs Ties with Project Veritas

Bret Taylor, Salesforce President and COO: "Since the events of the 6th [of January], I think one of the things that really impacts Salesforce is the national conversation about the role of technology in inciting that mob, disseminating misinformation and fomenting extremism."
Taylor: "What we've done in light of the events of Jan. 6 is recognize a much broader range of messages have the potential to incite politically motivated violence."
Taylor: "We've engaged with the RNC to communicate that no messages on behalf of President Trump and no messages questioning the validity or integrity of the election are allowed on our platform under the guidelines that they may incite violence."
Taylor: "We're looking across our customer base to make sure our technology is not being used by businesses or platforms that are inciting political violence."
Eric Loeb, Salesforce Executive VP of Government Affairs: "We are pausing all PAC contributions...the pause or suspension certainly includes the suspension of any contributions to members of Congress that voted to object to the [presidential election] certification."

Salesforce emailed Project Veritas to announce they made a "business decision" to end the existing working relationship. No explanation or reasoning was provided.

[SAN FRANCISCO - Feb. 24, 2021] Project Veritas released a new video today leaked by a Salesforce insider exposing the company's executives adhering to "Cancel Culture" mentality following the events at the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6. The Salesforce executives were recorded on Jan. 13.

On their website, Salesforce states they are the world's top Customer Relationship Management (CRM) platform with over 150,000 clients. Salesforce alleges they "bring companies and customers together" – that allegation is now worthy of some serious questions.

Bret Taylor, Salesforce's President and Chief Operating Officer, said that what happened in Washington, D.C. on Jan. 6 has forced the company to rethink how they do business.

"Since the events of the 6th [of January], I think one of the things that really impacts Salesforce is the national conversation about the role of technology in inciting that mob, disseminating misinformation and fomenting extremism," Taylor said.

"What we've done in light of the events of Jan. 6 is recognize a much broader range of messages have the potential to incite politically motivated violence," he said.
