I assume each of his tweets have to be approved manually by some employees somewhere considering a hacker could start a war with his account.

Would make sense to have something like this for @jack, too — could explain why his bio was changed but he didn't tweet.

I think his bio always said #bitcoin. He owns the cash app.

Hacking a former president and presidential candidate.... not really that far of a jump.
