Are you disagreeing that layoffs are happening at twitter? Elon told investors it would happen, and he needs to increase profit by $1.5B to stop losing money. Layoffs are guaranteed. The question is will it be 25% as reported or 75% as Elon promised. The answer is we can’t know because nobody knows. It’ll probably something in between.

What investors? The company is being delisted in one week.

The investors in the acquisition? A company doesn't need to be listed on an exchange to have investors.

I am disagreeing that they have happened, or that news sources have any accurate or reportable info on what will happen

They have a bunch of rumors, and panicked employees as "sources" none of which are likely in a position to know anything with any degree of certainty and it is widely irresponsible to report on it as if it was factual
