FBI Responds Despicably to the Twitter Files
Independent Sentinel ^ | By M Dowling -December 21, 20223

Posted on 12/22/2022 11:37:33 AM PST by Red Badger

The FBI issued a statement in response to the damning Twitter Files 1-8 released by Elon Musk, and it’s offensive. The FBI admits the facts in the files, claims what is recounted are normal interactions, and then suggests the information results from conspiracy theorists spreading misinformation.

They’re not apologetic. Instead, they’re continuing the disinformation campaign.

THE STATEMENT

The correspondence between Twitter and the FBI shows nothing more than examples of our traditional, longstanding, and ongoing federal government and private sector engagements, which involve numerous companies over multiple sectors and industries.

As evidence in the correspondence, the FBI provides critical information to the private sector in an effort to allow them to protect themselves and their customers. The men and women of the FBI work every day to protect the American public.

It is unfortunate that conspiracy theorists and others are feeding the American public misinformation with the sole purpose of attempting to discredit the agency.

They say what they are doing is legal and legitimate. They’re gaslighting us. The truth is they are manipulating Americans with propaganda and taking away our free speech.

Read the files.

They look you straight in the eye and lie. If this is “normal” how long have they been violating the Constitution?

Well, I for one feel much safer. It's sort of like the entire country's in protective custody, isn't it?

They’re justifying it by saying they have always been corrupt.

Just normal business as usual so that makes it OK. Just like the Nazis had normal business as usual. Doesn’t make it right. Just shows how depraved they have become that they think it’s fine and dandy.

Well they got that part right. Now for their motivation:

The FBI lowers itself by insulting their accusers with terms like “conspiracy theorists”, “gaslighting”, “manipulating Americans”.

Absent is any information to counter the accusations against them.

Always remember, these are the guys who lied to the FISA judges with their bogus Steele dossier to get warrants to start the Trump/Russia collusion investigation that went on for years. End result of the Mueller investigation? NOTHING! Sill, Trump was impeached over that bullshit.

It saddens me that I can' even trust the FBI anymore, much less local LEO's who now invade the wrong homes and shoot the wrong people. We're all on our folks. Be prepared to defend yourself and your families within State gun laws.

However, if Law Enforcement types arrive for whatever dispute/call, drop your frigging weapon immediately. We all know how trigger happy they are now. Defend your home against the bad guys, but do not face down the LEO's.
