"Alex Jones' Return to X Sparks Controversy and Resignation of Civil Rights Lawyer"
Civil rights lawyer Sherrilyn Ifill is leaving X (formerly Twitter) after the platform announced the reinstatement of conspiracy theorist Alex Jones' account. Ifill, a staunch gun control advocate, criticized Jones for his campaign of gaslighting and assault on the Sandy Hook families, calling his return a degradation of the platform. Ifill will now post solely on Threads. Elon Musk, who owns X, defended the move as protecting First Amendment rights.
