Twitters former head of content control said this week it was a mistake to censor the story. He said it was a mistake to block the NY Posts twitter account.

they all censored it before the election, and now they all admit it was legit. No one is still saying it was russian disinformation. There was never any evidence it was russian disinformation.

They didn’t want the story to come out and influence the election. Obviously that’s what happened.

Instead of insulting me, which is easy, rise to the challenge and show me that i’m wrong.

here is an article on former twitter executive saying they blew it….

Show us that you’re less predictable than i am. Please list some big policy issues on which you think conservatives are right, and liberals are wrong.

I have praised and criticized people
on both sides. With you the liberal is always right, the conservative is always wrong. Always

Make that wrong. I’ll wait.

Hunter Biden should lose his top level security clearance and post as one of the President’s chief advisors. We should also look into the $2 billion his wife received from Saudi Arabia and the trademarks he got from China.

Pete and Spence, here you go.

According to a twitter executives who worked in managing content, they claim they were warned by FBI about upcoming smear dumps against Hunter Biden. They say they were specifically warned about attacks against Hunter Biden.

But you guys know they are lying.

When you don’t want to believe something, you can never be convinced of that something. If you have even a. speck of honesty, it’s obvious what happened. Next time it could happen to your side.

Putin is using Musk to do his dirty work now. Trump isn’t useful, now that he’s going to prison.

It already did

Rupert Murdoch’s Fox News channel knew about Donald Trump’s illegal hush money payment to a pornographic film actor ahead of the 2016 election but killed the story because the media mogul wanted him to win, it was reported on Monday.

The Fox journalist Diana Falzone “had obtained proof” of Trump’s alleged extramarital affair with Stormy Daniels, as well as emails that showed his lawyer, Michael Cohen, planned to buy her silence through a non-disclosure agreement, according to the New Yorker.

Pete I missed the part in that post, where the FBI was working to help Trump get elected, as they did with Biden in 2020. Can you help me out, and point to where that happened?

1% of the country watches Foxnews on a good night. How many people are on Twitter and Facebook?

Are you saying the twitter executives are lying?

i know you have to deny it, but please at least be clear about which facts you are denying.

Ask James Comey, who announced the reopening of the email investigation days before the 2016 election.

John R and TDF here are both pretty non partisan, and both know a lot more about IT than either of us. They both thought it was a legit concern.

Talking about Hilarys email handling is legit ( as is talking about trumps handling of sensitive documents). Burying Hunters laptop story, censoring those who want to discuss it, and smearing them as russian propagandists, is nonsense.

let’s see where the hearings lead. Probably nowhere.

Sure Jim, meanwhile Putin’s puppets will gladly follow orders and extend the long history of Republican windbaggery.

republican winbaggery is producing sufficiently superior results that Americans are fleeing red for blue, causing blue states to lose congressional seats and red states to gain congressional seats ( and therefore electoral votes).

meaning, the majority of americans think you’re the windbag.

Donald Trump calls for “termination” of US Constitution. This man is preferred by most Republicans as their 2024 presidential choice.

True, polls say that. Desantis hasn't declared, they haven't debated. In a one-on-one primary, Desantis would have a great chance. The problem (like in 2016) is that you'll have 10 republicans running against trump, splitting the non-Trump vote.

Trump is an unbelievable jerk. But at the same time, Americans know the country was better off in 2020 than it is today. You are too bonkers to concede that.

If the GOP can nominate someone who will advocate for similar policies to Trump's, but do so like more of an adult (and that's a huge 'if'), such a person would be very tough for any of the democrat front-runners to beat. Based on where we are today, the only democrat I wouldn't bet that Desantis would beat, is Michelle Obama. She's un-beatable in my opinion

That's the difference between me and you. I hate Michelle Obama like you hate all Republicans. But that doesn't mean I'm not rational enough to concede conclusions which I don't happen to like. I do that all the time. On your side, Paul is the only one capable of it. You, Spence, Wayne, GS...to you guys, the left has never been wrong, and everyone on the right is a Sith Lord.

FBI warned them specifically about misinformation regarding hunter.

of course jim you left out they warned all platforms about Russian disinformation and misinformation

keep making things up that Trump's FBI was trying to Help Biden win LOL

After His current suspended the constitution comments maybe the FBI and the CIA should have made sure he never made it down the escalator the 1st time

He is a Direct threat to this country's National security with a cult who would install as POTUS by hook or by crook ... and they tried and will try again... But but Hunter is all you talk about

Funny how that works

"Trump's FBI was trying to Help Biden win LOL " A senior agent was in trouble for letting his politics cloud his judgment wayne. You think that when Trump was potus, all FBI agents were Trump voters?

Here is BIdens FBI director, saying the FBIs actions regarding the Hunter sage, were "very troubling".

WHat am I making up? I posted quoted from Twitter saying the FBI told them disinformation was coming, posts from Twitter and many other media outlets saying it was a mistake to call it russian disinformation, and right now posting quotes from Bidens FBI director. SO please tell me, what am I making up?

We all are just too amazed by the depth of your political wisdom.
Perhaps you are a Sith Lord reincarnated.
Your vision of DeSantis vs Michelle Obama is comical.

Mr Unwoke vs Mrs Obama.

Meanwhile the man you consistently supported for years has in the last 2 weeks, pledged solidarity with the Jan 6 rioters, dined with 2 Holocaust-denying fans of Hitler, and called for terminating the Constitution. Yet he remains the front-runner and clear favorite for the GOP nomination president in 2024.

Out, damned spot! out, I say!—One, two; why, then ‘tis time to do’t.—Hell is murky!—Fie, my lord, fie! a soldier, and afeard? What need we fear who knows it, when none can call our power to account?—Yet who would have thought the old man to have so much blood in him? The thane of Fife had a wife; where is she now?—What, will these hands ne’er be clean?—No more o’that, my lord, no more o’that: you mar all with this starting. Here’s the smell of the blood still: all the perfumes of Arabia will not sweeten this little hand. Oh, oh, oh!

"Your vision of DeSantis vs Michelle Obama is comical."

Here's what I said..."the only democrat I wouldn't bet that Desantis would beat, is Michelle Obama. She's un-beatable in my opinion"

I said Michelle Obama would beat Desantis. You find that comical? Why? You're saying Desantis would likely beat her?

"the man you consistently supported for year"

I did not support the man. I supported the policies he advocated for. I said the man was a morally bankrupt reptile 1,000 times, yet somehow you missed it completely. Shocker.

As I said, your education didn't do you much good. You made up a fabricated quote and got caught, you said it's a lie that girls locker rooms are becoming co-ed when they are, you think it's comical that I said no one on the right can beat Michelle Obama (that's what 'un-beatable' means), you think the victor is the victim, and you think calling someone a morally bankrupt reptile, is supporting that person.

To quote the same movie in regards to you, "truly you have a dizzying intellect", Pete. Simply dizzying.

read the article

Wray said the allegations in Grassleys letter were deeply troubling. What did Grassleys letter allege? That very senior fbi agents i targeted with the media conwrage of the hunter story for political reasons.

if i say that a=b and i say that b=c, maybe you can claim that i never said that a=c, but any idiot knows it’s the same thing spence.

98 Old man Grassley is being lied to by his own staff . He has no concept of how twitter works

Again allegations the Republicans are full of allegations but their always missing the evidence !

Why? Because their base thrives on allegations.. and they don’t believe evidence.. why do you think they still think Trump won

Trump reinvents ‘rigged’ election myth around Twitter allegations
Republicans are now following Trump in claiming foul play in the 2020 election took the form of social media censorship, replacing debunked claims of fraudulent ballots

And the gop is latching on to the latest conspiracy

In addition, a lawsuit by the Republican attorneys general of Missouri and Louisiana alleging that government officials “colluded” with technology companies to censor social media has generated depositions, including one from an FBI agent who coordinated regular meetings with social media companies about election misinformation. The agent testified that the Hunter Biden story was not discussed.

Of course they’re suggesting he’s lying with out evidence

I think there are all kinds of questions that need to be answered, and we’re determined to get there,” Rep. Jim Jordan (R-Ohio), who is poised to lead the Judiciary Committee, said at a November news conference. “We know that had an impact on the election.”

Again with no evidence
