Donald Trump said the 2020 election was rigged.
Trump had no idea how close to the mark he really was.
And you’ll be speechless when you see what the FBI was up to in the 2020 election.
The latest installment of Elon Musk’s Twitter Files may have been the most jaw-dropping.
Journalist Matt Taibbi published a jaw-dropping set of revelations from Musk’s Twitter Files.
In this latest batch Taibbi exposed how the FBI ordered Facebook to censor election “misinformation” during the 2020 election.
Taibbi reported that the FBI sent over so many requests to censor election content Twitter employees high-fived one another about being able to complete the heavy workload.

Taibbi also showed Twitter employees demanding the platform censor a tweet by Donald Trump in the final days of the election on orders from the California government.

The FBI’s election meddling continued into 2022.

The FBI even demanded Twitter censor the conservative media company Right Side Broadcasting.

The FBI and Twitter’s work formed such a symbiotic relationship in censoring content that the FBI even told Twitter there was no impediment to sharing classified information to help Twitter better censor conservatives.
“The Twitter exec writes she explicitly asked if there were ‘impediments’ to the sharing of classified information ‘with industry.’ The answer? ‘FBI was adamant no impediments to sharing exist,’” Taibbi reported.
This is illegal.
The government cannot order private companies to censor content to evade the First Amendment.
And the fact that the FBI had 80 agents sitting around searching for conservatives to censor led many conservatives to wonder if the FBI could have stopped one of these mass shooters – that reports indicate are known to law enforcement – from engaging in their acts of madness if agents were tasked with stopping real crimes instead of working on behalf of the Democrat Party to censor conservatives.
The FBI is clearly broken.
No part of the FBI’s mission should involve agents monitoring Twitter to censor legal speech for political reasons.
The Twitter Files revelation that the FBI and Twitter colluded on a censorship regime to meddle in elections should prompt a serious congressional investigation and massive housecleaning at the FBI.
