(Fox News) Tesla CEO Elon Musk made a big splash on Twitter with a video of himself walking into the tech giant’s headquarters ahead of his takeover of the company.
Musk, who is set to officially have ownership of the social media platform by Friday, shared a clip of himself walking into Twitter’s lobby while carrying a sink.
“Entering Twitter HQ – let that sink in!” Musk exclaimed with a visual pun.

Many Musk fans and other conservatives rallied behind the billionaire.
“Let Freedom Ring!” GOP commentator Wesley Hunt reacted.
“I can’t even calculate how much money I’d pay to read the Slack chat of Twitter employees today. Definitely would pay extra to read the thoughts of ‘Content Moderators,’” Substack journalist Glenn Greenwald wrote.

Conservative comedians the Hodge Twins said, “Elon bout to make Twitter great again.”
“Boy it makes me happy to see Elon Musk at Twitter HQ after 13 years on this platform getting censored and shadowbanned and taking away followers. LET FREEDOM RING!” journalist Emily Miller tweeted.
“If you didn’t like The Babylon Bee calling an adult male a man, you could have just not followed them on Twitter. Look what you did,” The Daily Wire’s Frank J. Fleming pointed out.
Others, however, did not see the humor in Musk’s video.
“This is fundamentally cruel,” CNN analyst Juliette Kayyem reacted. “Whatever the masters of the universe are doing with this website, lots and lots of people — not fancy people, just people with kids and houses and vacation plans and who make companies run and rich men richer — will lose their livelihoods.”
