Twitter barred them, what happened when Elon Musk brought them back?

After Hurricane Helene, Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene and conspiracy theorist Alex Jones shared debunked claims on X about the government controlling the weather. These reinstated users, including Laura Loomer, Mike Lindell, and Rogan O'Handley, spread disinformation and conspiracy theories on X. Since Elon Musk bought the platform, more users have been reinstated and their posts have gained significant traction, often spreading false information about immigration, race, natural disasters, and elections. Musk plays a role in amplifying these posts to his millions of followers. The power and influence of these reinstated accounts on X have raised concerns about the platform being overrun with false narratives and hateful content.
