Florida Governor Ron DeSantis said his state could take action against Twitter Inc. for launching a poison pill defense to thwart an unsolicited bid by Elon Musk.
Musk recently announced he would be attempting to purchase 100 percent of Twitter, offering $54.20 per share — a premium over the current stock price. Twitter’s board of directors fought back by initiating a “poison pill” defense to hamper Musk’s effort.
