On Tuesday’s broadcast of NewsNation’s “Cuomo,” Twitter Files journalist Matt Taibbi discussed the newest Twitter Files and pointed to one email exchange where Twitter “immediately” suspended accounts flagged by the FBI without investigation on Twitter’s part that Twitter later couldn’t point to solid proof to back the FBI’s allegations.
Taibbi said, “In one shot, you can see the FBI asks to remove three accounts, that gets forwarded to Twitter, Twitter immediately suspends them, the accounts. But more importantly, when there’s a glitch, and the accounts remain up, the FBI immediately writes back and says, what’s the deal? We just wrote to you, why is it still up? So, that shows the nature of the relationship basically that it’s not really a collaboration. It’s much more like somebody reporting to an authority.”

As we suspected all along.............................
One thing that people likely don’t realize is that most of the Leftist in tech don’t really know how to identify the ‘dangerous’ conservatives, the ones who might do things like prevent World War 3, or warn people about vaccines. So those companies would be shooting in the dark if left alone to deal with our side.
That’s where our taxpayer-funded FBI comes to the rescue as they have PLENTY OF BUDGET for hunting out us Right Wing Extremists (particularly the ones wanting fair elections and against WW3), and hence this is what we get...
Why shouldn’t Russian propaganda have a free airing in American social media?? Taibbi is right, Putin’s lies should be in my Aunt’s twitter feed!
Indeed, among the most egregious, because corruption, once begun, will defend itself with as much force as it needs. Open and transparent governance is a threat to the corrupt.
Now what?
The fbi is an arm of the government. Neither one has the right to do this, and twitter didn’t either.
For this, the appropriate and fitting penalty is 30 consecutive life terms in federal prison, applied to the topmost executive of each of them.
From the article: “In this case, they later determined that they couldn’t find anything connecting them (these 3 accounts) to any bad actors.”
The issue isn’t one of Putin’s propaganda showing up in your Aunt’s FB feed - it is whether the US Government has the right to shut down ANY speech by proxy through social media companies. This FedGov team said “jump”, and FB (now) & Twitter (before) said “how high?”. It’s a 1st Amendment issue, and one of advancing FedGov’s narrative, while suppressing other perspectives.
In other words, Government censorship.
bttt
“This FedGov team said “jump”, and FB (now) & Twitter (before) said “how high?”.”
And soon social media sites started jumping even before being directed to by the FBI. Also, with censorship teams on both sides coordinating to delete and ban anything that goes against the government narrative, it’s a given that they are also promoting fake information that benefits the government’s point of few.
That’s why you have what we call “trolls” posting comments at sites still insisting the Russia/Trump collusion story is true. Or saying such things as “Hunter Biden is not an elected official so what he does has no bearing on anything”, and other such nonsense. I suspect those are government-paid actors with scripts provided by the FBI and other government agencies. For even after being corrected on facts, the next day they are posting the same exact comments.
The mantra that red states have more crime than blue states is another such issue on which they will ignore proven facts showing those crimes all come from democrat-controlled cities. The trolls post the talking points as if copied straight from the DNC. I believe that many are paid with our tax dollars and I wish some investigative reporter would follow the trails that would lead to the persons or agencies who are paying those trolls. All “Disinformation” is not coming from foreign actors as the government insists as an excuse which requires them to monitor social media. Much of the disinformation are those that are “calls coming from inside the house”.

What have you got against 30 consecutive rounds of 5.56 applied to the topmost executive of each of them??
THEY’RE STILL doing it. Knee-jerk, too.
I’ve been DOA on Twitter — that great bastion of Free Speech — since May 12th.
How’d it happen, ya ask?? Here’s my last entry, posted just after Musk appointed that WEF chick to be CEO:
“Gab is out there, but ya gotta be Johnny-on-the-spot with your personal ban hammer. LOTTA supremacists, Jew haters, skinhead types — some for real, some bots, probably a lotta government spooks. Use that “Block” function mightily and it clears things up pretty well.”
NOBODY has been able to describe what Twitter Rule that post violates or how, but — despite that — no “free speech” for me.
AND — JUST TO BE CERTAIN of my facts...
...before I posted that, I went to my Gab account and spent 10-15 minutes scrolling the main Feed, which - as I describe — was peppered with tripe from an assortment of Nazi stooges still pining for The Reich and blaming everything on da Joooos.
Chris Wray is a liar.
