Twitter’s Head of Trust and Safety Resigns

The head of Twitter’s trust and safety team, Ella Irwin, has resigned.

Irwin confirmed her resignation to Reuters on Thursday, which comes months after acting Twitter CEO Elon Musk whittled the company’s personnel down to fewer than 2,000. This resignation also comes on the eve of Linda Yaccarino taking over as CEO sometime this month. Musk will remain in charge of software development and core principles afterward.

The Washington Examiner’s request for comment was met with an automated email reply with a poop emoji. Musk has not commented publicly on the resignation, and Irwin’s Twitter handle remains without a single tweet.

Irwin has worked for the social media platform since June 2022. By the time of her hire, Musk had already initiated his acquisition of Twitter, but it wasn’t finalized until October.

Musk admitted in an interview with the Babylon Bee earlier this week that the company needed “truth and reconciliation.” His pursuit of truth led the acting CEO to release the “Twitter Files,” which revealed how the platform was functioning behind the scenes.

“So we’re not going to expose the things we’ve done wrong, why would people trust us in the future?” Musk said.

In addition, Musk revealed his recent discovery of a list of repressed words on the platform, which, if included in tweets and user handles, resulted in accounts and posts being “shadow-banned” or kept out of the site’s algorithm. Among the words was “suck” in any context. The owner claimed the list was compiled with a “woke” mindset that leaned left.
