Don Lemon Quits X, Citing Elon Musk’s Change to Move Legal Disputes to Texas Courts


Don Lemon, a one-time business partner of Elon Musk who's now suing the tech mogul, is done with X.

The journalist and former CNN anchor announced that he’s leaving X before Nov. 15 — when a change in X’s terms of service will require all disputes to be moved to courts in Texas. “As the Washington Post recently reported on X’s decision to change the terms, this ‘ensures that such lawsuits will be heard in courthouses that are a hub for conservatives, which experts say could make it easier for X to shield itself from litigation and punish critics,'” Lemon wrote. Lemon directed followers to his accounts on YouTube, TikTok, Facebook, Instagram and Bluesky, adding, “I hope you will join me there.”
