Tech billionaire Elon Musk has issued a threat to sue the Anti-Defamation League (ADL), accusing the self-described “anti-hate” organization of being responsible for a decline in ad revenue on X, the social media platform he recently took control of, formerly known as Twitter.

In a series of tweets, Mr. Musk alleged that the ADL was actively trying to sabotage his social media platform, resulting in a significant drop in advertising revenue in both the United States and Europe.
