Twitter's deal with elan musk means absafalutely nothing, despite sources posting a one story saying they are continuing to work on it. The thing that bothers me here is that if the market absorbs that, you can make an offer for a company, have it accepted, and then kind of worm out of it. What happens when apple decides to buy net flicks, and facebook says, you know what? Let's top their offer, force them to accept our offer,. We'll just keep them in a state of coma for a year, and then we'll walk.
Primary results are in! Aggrieved billionaires Jeff Bezos and Elon Musk can't stop tweeting at the government and Netflix laid off 150 full-time staffers. Also, ICE is watching you. Kara and Scott are joined by Friend of Pivot Rebecca Traister to discuss the impending end of Roe v. Wade.
You can find Rebecca on Twitter at @rtraister.

CORRECTION: In an earlier version of this episode, we stated that Netflix cancelled its animated Matilda series, which was incorrect. In fact, Matilda is going back into development, but has not been cancelled. The streamer will also release a film version of Matilda the Musical later this year.
