Elon Musk’s X cuts staffers on election misinformation team, claims they were ‘undermining election integrity’

Elon Musk’s social media company X, formerly Twitter, is slashing more than half of its team tasked with fighting misinformation tied to elections ahead of the 2024 presidential election, according to a report.

X cut four election integrity staffers, including the team’s head, based in Ireland, UPI reported citing a report from The Information.

The social media platform’s executives told the team in Dublin that “having integrity employees based in Europe wasn’t necessary,” the outlet reported, citing three people familiar with the matter.

The firings mean the team has been cut to less than half in North America, the outlet reported.

Musk appeared to confirm the report on X Wednesday.

“Oh you mean the ‘Election Integrity’ Team that was undermining election integrity? Yeah, they’re gone,” he tweeted.
