Tim they were making golf arrangements 

Well I was told they needed the meetings to develop a strategy to take down unwanted tweets.

The strategy:  email links of unwanted tweets.

They needed weekly meetings for that?  I mean I know government workers are incompetent, but wouldn’t think that would’ve been the case for twitter

I'm not saying we've seen some huge smoking gun, although the onion is still being peeled.  In fact I've said multiple times that I wouldn't expect an email from the FBI opening their kimono.  That doesn't mean it didn't happen, so maybe we are back to your "people gonna believe..." statement.  

But what we have confirmed is that Roth DIDN'T meet with the FBI and DIDN'T discuss Trump (wink, wink), that they were hesitant in naming the three-letter bureaus (perhaps corroborating my assertion that the FBI isn't that stupid to leave a smoking gun lying around), and that they had regular meetings with FBI, DHS, and DNI regarding election security and the Hunter laptop.

What we also have is carefully released stories that Taibbi (presumably Weiss and any others) had to agree to deals in order to be able to present.

What Twitter did is bad in some respect. Musk selecting stories to release (and perhaps holding back parts of it) is not good either. People choose to see what they want to see because of all that.

Pretty incredible, Twitter actually did everything the right accused them of. Elon pulled the curtain back at great risk, what a fkn hero. If you want to know what true bravery looks like, look no further than Elon over the last 7 days, blown away. He did all of us a great service.

At this point, like the detractors in this thread.. They are enemies of the American way and Thank God people like Elon exist. Sometimes it takes an outsider to expose it

They aren't seeing enough to prove the obvious collusion with the government but, they definitely know Elon is only showing selected stories to manipulate us through well-respected moderate and even left leaning journalist.

It's hilarious, too stupid to understand what they are admitting. It's incredible to watch.

I called him a hero, which he obviously is. Not sure that makes him the greatest hero in history but, that's how those idiots roll. He's moving up the list for sure, the tears alone are justifying it.

One of them explicitly wrote something along the lines of "we looked for interactions from the trump camp, but couldn't find them.  We're think they exist, but we just couldn't find them."

That should be good enough evidence that Twitter was acting at Trump's request for some in this thread.

[Hardcore troubadour 12,646]

My lord. The smoking gun already existed. Zuckerberg said that the FBI warned him about the laptop.  What’s in the Twitter dump only backs that up.

Musk is a hero to people who believe in a free and open society.  To people who believe they need safe spaces, and that facts are violence, that kids need to be sexualized, that the state loves kids more than parents, that America generally sucks....to those people Musk is Satan.

I really don't want to believe it but, sadly, you are 100% correct.

Lol...you keep saying that.  The laptop is the biggest example of government-big tech censorship.   We can also talk about Biden's diary and the FBI raiding journalists to shut them up.  The revolving door of Twitter hiring ex-fbi, DOJ, and ratings of prominent Democrats.  This is by far the most disgraceful anti-American conspiracy in our nation's history, and the left plays it off as a nothingburger.  We are basically at war, but it has only been the left fighting.   This needs to wake more people up to just how spiteful and devious the power-hungry commies on the left have become.

They have to play it off. They were wrong or lied about all of it. You can see it right in this thread by the usual morons.

Of course you believe Musk is not selecting some parts of the story to leave out. He is your true American hero.

It’s not a govt conspiracy. It’s them actively discussing stories and what Twitter should publish right before an election. Plain and simple
