This lawsuit is much more complicated than what’s explained in here. It’s not just a Musk lawsuit. It is closely tied to subpoenas by Jim Jordan, & Congressional lies.

Elon Musk's X sues Lego, Nestlé and more brands, accusing them of advertising boycott
The new defendants added into the legal filing included Lego, Nestlé, Tyson Foods, Abbott Laboratories, Colgate-Palmolive, Pinterest and Shell International.
