Summary
House Oversight Committee Chair James Comer, R-Ky., praised Twitter owner Elon Musk as "a great American" in an interview on CNBC's "Squawk Box". This comes after Musk visited Washington and met with Comer and other top Republicans. On Feb. 8 Comer will chair the first major congressional hearing on Twitter since Republicans took control of the House. Musk's decision to publicize his company's internal deliberations was lauded by Comer, who said it was a great service to those who care about free speech. Twitter had initially limited the distribution of a New York Post story, but later backtracked and allowed links to the story.
