A deep dive into Elon Musk's 2020-busting 'Twitter Files'
2022-12-04
[American Thinker] Just yesterday, Elon Musk revealed devastating internal Twitter emails that prove what conservatives already knew: that the social media giant was actively working with the Democrats to control the flow of information during the 2020 presidential election.

Musk, Twitter's new head, tweeted a link to the account of journalist Matt Taibbi, who posted a thread of tweets including screenshots of emails from Twitter employees.

Skipping down.
The N.Y. Post revealed how Joe Biden abused his authority as vice president to enrich his son via a shady business deal in Ukraine. The laptop contained documents and emails about these deals. Also on the laptop, Hunter was photographed in flagrante delicto and using racist language.

Twitter locked the N.Y. Post Twitter account and removed tweets with links to the story shared by users. Twitter also warned when the link was clicked that it may be "unsafe." The goal was to deter users from accessing the N.Y. Post by implying that its site was either hacked or infected with a virus.

Taibbi said that Twitter even blocked the sharing of links to the story via direct message. This restriction is usually used only to stop the circulation of child pornography.

Twitter also locked the Twitter account of then—White House press secretary Kayleigh McEnany weeks prior to the 2020 election. This caused Trump campaign staffer Mike Hahn to dispatch a sharp email to Twitter demanding to know when she would be unlocked.
