On Friday, December 16, the only conclusion Matt Taibbi could reach in his reporting is that social media megalith Twitter was a veritable “subsidiary” of the Just Us Department. If they were, Facebook and all the rest still are. Merrick Garland really does run this country. He said so on TV but not many actually believed him. Now they do.
Social Media is a subsidiary
All of global social media is nothing but a subsidiary of the European bankers, who pull progressive puppet strings – in an attempt to stomp out dreaded “nationalism,” once and for all. Richard Nixon and his problem plumbers are nothing but an asterisk in the history books compared to the massive and focused “weaponization” just revealed.
As soon as Donald Trump was elected president, The FBI established a “social media task force” of “80 agents.” Their official orders weren’t “get rid of Trump and his followers.” Instead they were to “monitor foreign interference.” That code phrase was used to rig the 2020 election heavily in favor of Joe Biden, while covering up the crimes they should have been investigating.
The latest batch of Twitter files exploded over the beltway like a neutron bomb. The buildings are still standing but everyone in them has been vaporized. This social media “scandal” is so big and so bad, even incoming Congress members aren’t sure what’s next. They’re already kicking around the idea of “dismantling” the FBI. They will need to do a major housecleaning of the DOJ at the same time.
1. THREAD: The Twitter Files, Part Six
TWITTER, THE FBI SUBSIDIARY— Matt Taibbi (@mtaibbi) December 16, 2022
Then, there’s the entire alphabet of “intelligence” agencies. Every one of the spookiest ones were in the conspiracy at top levels. Folks are starting to hint that John F. Kennedy used to talk like that, too. Everybody knows what happened to him.
“The #TwitterFiles are revealing more every day about how the government collects, analyzes, and flags your social media content,” The report begins. “Twitter’s contact with the FBI was constant and pervasive, as if it were a subsidiary.”
A review of internal platform communications revealed that between “January 2020 and November 2022, there were over 150 emails between the FBI and former Twitter Trust and Safety chief Yoel Roth.” Taibbi points out that “a surprisingly high number are requests by the FBI for Twitter to take action on election misinformation, even involving joke tweets from low-follower accounts.” That sounds a lot like “election interference” to most folks but it’s still only the tip of the iceberg.
FBI responds, weakly
The best response Christopher Wray’s public relations team could come up with about unbridled social media censorship is this: “The FBI regularly engages with private sector entities to provide information specific to identified foreign malign influence actors’ subversive, undeclared, covert, or criminal activities. Private sector entities independently make decisions about what, if any, action they take on their platforms and for their customers after the FBI has notified them.”
Besides being a partial admission of guilt, that’s so much fertilizer that it would get a Dutch farmer tossed into prison.
One “former intelligence officer” exposed by the Twitter Files wrote on their private exchange: “Do agencies like FBI and DHS do in-house flagging work themselves, or farm it out? ‘You have to prove to me that inside the f—ing government you can do any kind of massive data or AI search.”

Taibbi also passed along an exchange from the media conspirators “email sent to ‘Twitter contacts‘ from an FBI official listing multiple Twitter accounts that ‘may potentially constitute violations of Twitter’s Terms of Service.‘”
That was just one list of bizillions. “Twitter personnel in that case went on to look for reasons to suspend all four accounts, including @fromma , whose tweets are almost all jokes (see sample below), including his ‘civic misinformation‘ of Nov. 8.” Two accounts were cleared because they were “blue-leaning.” The rest were unplugged.
Then, “Taibbi then shared an email from November 5, 2022 from the FBI’s National Election Command Post to the agency’s field office in San Francisco, where Twitter Headquarters is located, with a lengthy list of Twitter accounts that ‘may warrant additional action.’” They got it. There is so much more, that it will keep coming out in installments.
