Most Twitter employees were listening to an hour-long presentation on the social network’s 2023 strategy when word first spread Tuesday morning that Elon Musk was once again interested in buying Twitter Inc. for $44 billion. Internal presenters from the revenue and product teams did not formally address the development or even acknowledge that Musk had rejoined.

They didn’t have to because staff members were closely monitoring the latest development in the saga that has overshadowed their professional lives since April, when the billionaire CEO of Tesla Inc. first agreed to buy the social network for $54.20 per share.

Tweeps, as Twitter’s employees are known, jumped in and shared their thoughts right away on Tuesday morning. One employee’s meme account frequently made fun of people who were just trying to make it through the day without crying. Someone is sick of being humiliated in court, according to a former coworker’s letter.

Even Twitter’s cafeteria sound system in the city’s headquarters joined in. According to a worker, it was playing the Clash song “Should I Stay or Should I Go?”

Many Twitter employees are wondering this now that it seems more likely that Musk will acquire the business. Musk has been trying to violate the agreement for the past three months, disparaging Twitter and its executives and creating confusion and instability at the San Francisco-based company while the two sides are engaged in an expensive legal battle. The board of Twitter understandably supports a sale at $54.20 per share, but many employees have dreaded the idea.

In a recent online video, schoolgirls are allegedly seen jeering at a member of Iran’s dreaded Basij paramilitary force after widespread anti-government protests reached the classroom.

When the man asked to speak to them, the teenagers waved their burqas in the air and yelled, “Get lost, Basiji.”

Although the BBC was unable to confirm it, it was reportedly shot in Shiraz on Tuesday.

The Basij’s assistance was instrumental in quelling the demonstrations that were sparked by the death of a young woman while in custody.

In other social media videos, a man can be heard shouting “death to the dictator” as a group of girls cross the street in the northwest city of Sanandaj, and an elderly woman can be seen clapping as schoolgirls in skimpy clothing chant “freedom, freedom, freedom” in a public demonstration.

Iran’s minister of education, Yousef Nouri, asserted on Wednesday that schools were being attacked by the “enemy.”

Mohammad Jafar Montazeri, the prosecutor general, said that because the young Iranians have been “trapped” by the internet, authorities must be prepared to handle their protests.

The two men were speaking as Iran’s Human Rights Activists News Agency (Harana) shared a video that appeared to show uniformed and plainclothes security personnel pushing a group of schoolgirl protesters in Tehran’s main square.

Another video, which appears to have been shot in the nearby city of Karaj, depicts schoolgirls screaming and running away from a man riding a motorcycle along a pavement while wearing plain clothes and is thought to be a member of the security forces. The man is also thought to be the one in the other video.

The eagerly awaited Confidence Man by New York Times journalist Maggie Haberman, out on Tuesday, contains these shocking specifics in addition to many others.

From his days as a businessman in New York to his post-presidential life, Mr. Trump is followed in this book. More than 200 sources were interviewed for this report, including former aides and Mr. Trump himself three times.

The former president criticized Haberman, claiming that the book contains “many made-up stories with zero fact-checking” on his social media platform.

Ivanka Trump and Jared Kushner, both senior White House aides, were on the verge of resigning during a meeting with then-Chief of Staff John Kelly and then-White House counsel Don McGahn, according to Haberman.

Mr. Kelly intervened and told him not to send the tweet until he had spoken with Ivanka and Mr. Kushner. They both remained White House aides until the end of Mr. Trump’s presidency, but they never had a conversation with each other.

Additionally, the book reveals that Mr. Trump frequently denigrated his son-in-law, saying once that Jared Kushner “sounds like a child” after hearing him deliver a speech in public in 2017.

According to Haberman, Mr. Trump repeatedly brought up the idea of bombing Mexican drug labs, which astounded former US Defense Secretary Mark Esper.

The concept came from a discussion Mr. Trump had with Brett Giroir, an admiral in the US Public Health Service Commissioned Corps and a public health officer.
