Found the other Pat tweet about the 5k hole which clarifies things a bit:

So to recap:
September 2019 Pat says he paid $5k to get a real person at Twitter to review his ban. November 2019 he states that he invested $5k to get Twitter to look at it. Two years (and a lot of mockery of the topic) later he specifically mentions they were $5k in legal fees.
It's hard to know what to make of this. On the one hand, whether there ever were legal fees. I personally find it far fetched that you would need to hire a fucking to get Twitter to look at a ban. Then again, Rick has shown that he is not above wasting money hiring them for petty pursuits so it's at least within the realm of possibility. On the other hand, it's equally possible he's just lying in the last tweet, like he is about his tweets not violating ToS (yes, child, they did). Like I alluded to, he was constantly bashed by the atalkers over the 5k. I wouldn't put it past him to lie to make it look a bit better. It also doesn't help that Technicality Tomlinson worded his earlier tweets so vaguely that either option is viable.
Whatever the case might be, this mfer paid $5.000 for Twitter. Moreover, the circumstances surrounding the loss of his checkmark and his inability to get it back, along with the "connections" he supposedly made are still suspicious to say the least. It honestly wouldn't surprise me if that 5k wasn't the first sum of money he spent on that site.
