He is asking for both a business and a person to pay him. The business is Media Matters, which was made in Delaware. It does most of its work in D.C.

The person is Eric Hananoki, who lives in Maryland.

NONE OF THESE PLACES IS TEXAS.

So asking the Texas Right-Wrong Deciders is already so stupid and wrong that the asking is broken. Media Matters and Eric Hananoki can each ask the Deciders to say no to the asking just because of the place.

But it gets worse.

So ALL of the things he is asking the Right-Wrong Deciders to make Media Matters and Hananoki pay him for have some big problems.

But Elon has AN EVEN BIGGER PROBLEM THAN THAT.

NEW: Judge Reed O'Connor (N.D. Tex.) REJECTS Media Matters' effort to dismiss X Corp.'s lawsuit against them, finding personal jurisdiction—it's a doozy—and that venue is appropriate. Also, on the motion to dismiss, he finds that all three claims survive. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...
X v. Media Matters ORDER Before the Court are Defendants Media Matters for America (“Media Matters”), Eric Hananoki (“Hananoki”), and Angelo Carusone’s (“Carusone”) Motion to Dismiss for Lack of Personal Jurisdiction, Improper Venue, and Failure to State a Claim (ECF No. 40) and Brief in Support (ECF No. 41), filed March 8, 2024; Plaintiff’s Response in Opposition (ECF No. 45), filed March 29, 2024; and Defendants’ Reply (ECF No. 51), filed April 12, 2024. After examining the relevant case law, the Court determines that Defendants’ Motion to Dismiss is DENIED.

O'Connor doesn't ignore that case, not exactly. Instead, he finds personal jurisdiction because two of the Twitter/X advertisers mentioned are headquartered in Texas. That is "targeting ... sufficient to establish specific jurisdiction in Texas."
The body of the Hananoki articles targeted, among others, Oracle, a Texas-based company that placed ads on Plaintiff’s platform. Indeed, the Hananoki Original article included Oracle in the headline.7 Plaintiff also alleges that this “crusade” targeted its blue-chip advertisers which included Oracle and AT&T, Texas-based companies. 8 The Amended Complaint alleges that Defendant Carusone furthered this plan by publicly pressuring advertisers .... 9 This targeting of the alleged tortious acts at the headquarters of Texas based companies is sufficient to establish specific jurisdiction in Texas. See Johnson v. TheHuffingtonPost.com, Inc. (“The key question, under Calder, is whether the forum state was ‘the focal point of the [alleged libel] and of the harm suffered.’” As just described and as set out below, each Defendant engaged in the alleged tortious acts which targeted harm in, among other places, Texas.

Elon's asking has TWO big problems so far:

1. The Deciders he is asking to make Media Matters and Hananoki pay him do not have the power to make them do anything.

2. The thing he is asking the Deciders to make them pay him for is a thing that is always OK.

There are more problems.

This brings me to the end of my talking about Elon Musk asking the Texas Right-Wrong Deciders to make Media Matters and Eric Hananoki pay him because he says they hurt him.

In short: Elon is having a bad problem, and he will not go to space today.

Is it just me, or does the complaint literally fail to state a claim against defendant Eric Hananoki? It seems like they forgot about him before they got to the causes of action, which only allege that Media Matters committed any torts.

X, the Elon Musk-owned social media company formerly known as Twitter, filed a lawsuit against Media Matters and its writer Eric Hananoki on Monday, over what it called an “intentionally deceptive report” about antisemitism on the platform, according to a filing.

On the same day X filed its lawsuit, Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton opened an investigation into the media watchdog group for “potential fraudulent activity.”

The first Way of Hurting that Elon wants the Right-Wrong Deciders to make Media Matters and Hananoki pay him for is "Hurting Business Relationships with Business Friends He Already Has."
FIRST CAUSE OF ACTION Interference With Contract 42. X Corp. re-alleges and incorporates by reference the above allegations. 43. At all relevant times, Defendants were aware that Plaintiff contracted with various third parties, including but not limited to Apple, NBCUniversal, Comcast, Bravo, Apple, and IBM, to sell ads on the X platform, as clearly demonstrated by the many articles written by Defendants on the topic. 44. Defendant Media Matters intentionally interfered with contracts between X Corp. and its advertisers, including but not limited to Apple, NBCUniversal, Comcast, Bravo, Apple, and IBM—all clients with existing advertisement agreements that were casualties of Defendant’s misrepresentations and ceased advertising on the X platform as a direct result.

Reed O'Connor strikes again: This time, (again) denying venue transfer in the X v. Media Matters case.

The Fifth Circuit — a panel with Clement and Willett and in an opinion by Graves — said, "Why don't you try again?"

O'Connor does, and reaches the same conclusion.

Back to the Fifth Circuit.
United States Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit No. 25-10630 United States Court of Appeals Fifth Circuit FILED July 15, 2025 Lyle W. Cayce Clerk IN RE MEDIA MATTERS FOR AMERICA; ERIC HANANOKI; ANGELO CARUSONE, Petitioners. Petition for Writ of Mandamus to the United States District Court for the Northern District of Texas USDC No. 4:23-CV-1175 Before CLEMENT, GRAVES, and WILLETT, Circuit Judges. JAMES E. GRAVES, JR., Circuit Judge: Media Matters for America filed a petition for writ of mandamus seeking a venue transfer of the proceedings to the district court for the Northern District of California. For the reasons that follow, we GRANT IN PART Media Matters' petition, VACATE the district court's order denying transfer, and REMAND for a venue analysis consistent with this opinion. We also HOLD IN ABEYANCE Media Matters' interlocutory appeal pending resolution of this limited remand for venue purposes. Case 4:23-cv-01175-0 Document 242 Filed 09/16/25 Page 1 of 16 PageID 8099 IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE NORTHERN DISTRICT OF TEXAS FORT WORTH DIVISION X CORP., Plaintiff, V. MEDIA MATTERS FOR AMERICA, ET AL., Defendants. Civil Action No. 4:23-CV-01175-0 § ORDER Defendants' Motion to Transfer Venue (ECF No. 152) is back before the Court. The Fifth Circuit vacated the Court's order denying Defendants' Motion to Transfer Venue and instructed the Court to do a more thorough venue analysis. See In re Media Matters for Am., 143 F.4th 631 (5th Cir. 2025). After analyzing the eight private and public interest factors prescribed by the Fifth Circuit, the Court does not find good cause to transfer this action. Accordingly, Defendants' Motion to Transfer Venue is DENIED.
