Elon Musk has said an Axios report that the Department of Justice and Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) had concluded there was no evidence of a Jeffrey Epstein client list was the “final straw”.

The report also said the agencies had concluded there was no credible evidence the disgraced financier and pedophile blackmailed high-profile and prominent individuals, and confirmed that surveillance footage showed Epstein had killed himself in prison.

“So… umm… then what is Ghislaine Maxwell in prison for?” Musk posted to his X platform, referring to Epstein’s former girlfriend and associate who procured underage girls for him to abuse.

      My point is you’re a tedious pedant. What does your modification actually change in my point? Nothing either way? Neat, thanks professor.

        My modification makes it grammatically correct English. That makes it easier for people to read. It’s basic English.

          Does it change the point? No?

          Then you’re solely being a tedious pedant looking for a win. Go away or at the very least don’t bother me Mrs. Foster.

          Ed: ps.

          My modification makes it grammatically correct English.

          It might in your eyes but it also changes the point of the sentence, you’re removing context not adding any.

          That makes it easier for people to read.

          What does?

          It’s basic English.

          That is not in fact a complete sentence, I do so enjoy the hypocrisy though.

            Does what change what point? See, your inability to articulate your thoughts in English is the whole issue here. I’m not just looking for a win, I have a win, whereas you have a loss. But, my win isn’t just important for my sake. It’s important because when people use English correctly, it makes it easier for other people to read.

              The point of the comment you are attempting to “correct” while ignoring the writers intent.

              Not at all, a correction that changes intent isn’t a correction it’s a modification and an incorrect one at that.

              If you had kept the intent and not argued that I don’t know my own intent you may have had a point.

              And again, the high horsing while you’re actively kicking your own ass is priceless.

              Try again bud, hypocrisy is fun though.
