The New York Times reports:

Before Elon Musk bought Twitter last month, the company’s executives had racked up hundreds of thousands of dollars in travel invoices that the social media service planned to pay. But once Mr. Musk took over the company, he refused to reimburse travel vendors for those bills, current and former Twitter employees said. Mr. Musk’s staff said the services were authorized by the company’s former management and not by him. His staff have since avoided the calls of the travel vendors, the people said.
Mr. Musk and his advisers have trained their sights on computing costs that support Twitter’s underlying infrastructure, travel expenses, software services, real estate and even the company’s normally lavish in-office cafeteria food. Twitter’s spending has dropped, but the moves have spurred complaints from insiders — as well as from some vendors who are owed millions of dollars in back payments.

 
so if twitter declares bankruptcy can it still continue to operate (albeit with poor credit ratings) by taking money other entities (presumably in exchange for benefits from twitter)?
 
Yesterday's Wall St Journal had a story about the corporations salivating over a "friendly" House now that the GOP will take over.
Musk is excited that his "good friend" Kevin McCarthy will be the new Speaker and is relishing the prospect of billions of new govt contracts for Space X.
Musk probably playing long game to curry favor with the GOP.
They will help him keep Twitter afloat.

Musk had better bend over and let MTG stick it in. She’s going to be the one in charge in the House.
