Following the news that leftist Kathy Griffin has been banned from Twitter, Elon Musk responded to a tweet from journalist Benny Johnson where he shared a screenshot of Griffin’s permanently suspended account.
Johnson declared in the original tweet, “BREAKING: @KathyGriffin has been permanently suspended from Twitter for impersonating @ElonMusk.”
In response, Musk told Johnson, “Actually, she was suspended for impersonating a comedian.”
Musk then suggested that perhaps the ban wouldn’t be permanent after all as he continued in a reply to his own tweet, “But if she really wants her account back, she can have it.”
In a follow-up to that tweet, Musk added what has become a signature catch-phrase of sorts, “For $8.”

Johnson has also shared screenshots from the social media platform Mastodon, which Griffin has apparently joined.
In one post, Griffin said that she was “wreaking a little havoc on Twitter right now. I’m feeling quite smug.”
Griffin then followed that up by reporting that “Elon locked my Twitter [account]. I guess not ALL the content moderators were let go? Lol.”
In another screenshot that was shared by Johnson in a reply, Griffin claimed that Musk was “melting down” because of her and Valerie Bertinelli.
Bertinelli apparently began the trend by changing her user name to Elon Musk.

Musk’s quick wit is fantastic. I just wish he had said she was falsely impersonating an “attractive” comedienne. That woman is not the least bit funny and is “coyote ugly.”
Coyote ugly is quite kind. Fancy Griffith, do ya?
I have a 23 year old Rottweiler that has lost most of its senses, although it can still hear. I can promise you he wouldn’t hit that.
Ban her, don’t ban her. Who cares? Who is she again? No impact on the world or my life. Pretty much a big fat zero then.
When will we cease from hearing from and about over the hill “celebrities” who no one ever heard of in the first place. ie Kathy Griffin
It must be terrible for Kathy to have lived her whole life only to realize she is a redheaded version of Curly from The Three Stooges.
You mean Larry??
Well, she is obviously transitioning… To what? I’m not sure, but I hope it doesn’t live in America. I like to sleep at night!
OMG. I literally laughed until I cried. Then I made a screenshot and sent it a dozen people and then laughed again non stop for another 20 minutes. Freaking rock star comment.
Nothing more attractive than a crazed, ugly, sexually frustrated, libtard female walking around proudly holding a bloody human head.
