    Green light.

    All eyes are on whether Donald Trump decides to tweet now that Elon Musk reinstated his Twitter account — or if he decides to stay loyal to Truth Social.

    Over at Disney, Bob Iger has returned as CEO — replacing Bob Chapek — after stepping down from the position nearly three years ago.

    It’s also day two of the World Cup. We’ll have to wait to see if Twitter can handle the increase in activity following the mass resignations that occurred last week.

    Alexa isn’t pulling its weight.

    Internal documents obtained by Insider indicate that Amazon’s Alexa division made up the “vast majority” of the over $3 billion that the company lost across its “Worldwide Digital” department, which includes Alexa, Echo devices, Prime Video, and other products.

    Amazon confirmed layoffs affecting thousands of employees on its hardware and services teams last week, and the company’s CEO says to expect even more job cuts next year.

    Amazon is gutting its voice-assistant Alexa.

    Twitter loses another executive as Donald Trump’s account gets restored.

    Sarah Rosen, Twitter’s head of US content partnerships, announced her departure from the company shortly after Elon Musk reinstated Trump’s account on Saturday night.

    According to Bloomberg, Robin Wheeler, Twitter’s ad sales chief, and Maggie Suniewick, the company’s partnerships leader, were both terminated on Friday after they refused to fire more employees. Yoel Roth, Twitter’s head of trust and safety, also resigned last week.
