Following a report that the Federal Trade Commission has demanded Twitter turn over all internal communications related to owner Elon Musk and identify all the journalists that he has provided with company records, Musk accused the Biden regime of “weaponization of a government agency.”
The Wall Street Journal reports that the FTC wants Musk to provide testimony and provide the information, in addition to details about staff layoffs and the launch of the revamped Twitter Blue subscription service.
After Michael Shellenberger, one of the journalists involved in the release of the Twitter files, labeled the move “an outrageous attack on the first amendment,” Musk responded, calling it a “shameful case of weaponization of a government agency for political purposes and suppression of the truth!”
Fellow Twitter Files journalist Matt Taibbi added his thoughts:
The Twitter files have so far shown how the Biden administration engaged in attempts to censor COVID origin information, criticism of big pharma, and perpetuate Russiagate misinformation by effectively embedding intelligence operatives within Twitter and other social media platforms, and employing third party operatives to impose state sponsored blacklists.
Is it any wonder the regime is going after Musk and the journalists he has entrusted to expose the truth?
This overreach is happening simultaneously with Democrats calling for Tucker Carlson to be banned from broadcasting after he received hours of unseen footage from the Capitol breech on January 6th 2021 which paints a different narrative of the events to the one presented to the American people.
