He was recently quoted as having "[..] encouraged employees to remain focused and told them 'we as employees control what happens'"?

Is that quote accurate?

If so, not only is the latter part apparently a straightforward falsehood, but seems to demonstrate more ability re: daft virtue-signalling than creating value for shareholders.

I'm not sure why anyone would trust corporate leadership in crisis times, and Twitter's board was completely divorced from any negative outcomes to twitter in terms of their holdings. They never had skin in the game except as a platform for improving their resumes or social networking.
