"In the merger agreement, Twitter promised to do certain things between signing and closing, and it has to do those things, whether or not there would be a material adverse effect from not doing them. So if Musk can prove that Twitter hasn’t complied with its obligations, he can get out of the deal."

From https://www.bloomberg.com/opinion/articles/2022-07-09/elon-s...




So far Musk has provided no evidence that the SEC filings on bots are false and he's basically just making repeated unnecessary requests trying to force Twitter into being "uncooperative". I find the notion that the deal should be terminated based upon that pretty ridiculous. The article you linked seems to agree with me.

Regardless, Musk is making a lot of claims. Let's see if he can provide any reasonable evidence of those claims and make any reasonable arguments that will be accepted in court. There's really no point in speculating anymore. Now we just need to wait to see if a judge is actually buying his arguments.
