12:01 am
guess we're going to explain its all in this specialn of edition of the "ingraham angle". >> the twitter files. fe >> now, a few years back ,vative conservatives started noticing that their tweets weren'taction getting the traction they once did. tnow the common parlance became known as shadow manning. the effort to suppress orthe re amplify the reach of certainac voices. now, this was so concerning that former ceo jack dorsey was brought before congress to answer questions about it. >>fore are you censoring people? >> no. peo twitter shadow banning prominent republicans thad. >> is that true? no. well, he was doing intermittent fasting and so he can.jack dor now, tonight, jack dorsey better be lawyering up because it sure looks like he lied plder oath, playing kind of a gameay of semantics there. now, a little over two hours ago, former "new york times" columnist and free speech champion barry weiss began dropping more of those internal twitter files that showed justhe
12:02 am
how dedicated the company was to suppressing dissentinressingg voices. for years this was going on . the liberals of last century, do remember, they used to relish in all these old stories about how conservatives blacklisted pro communist sympathizerss of. but look who's doingng the blacklisting now. tonight, we learn that, well, we'd be otherwise known as before elon. wise kno >> they would have teams of twitter employees build blacklists. they would prevent disfavored tweets from trendingm tren and actively limit the visibility of entire accounts. or even trending topics all in secret without informing users . well, now to their busy band of censors. they gave this an innocuous sounding the name. they this outfit, they called it the strategic response team. "tha global escalation team, it included. and check us out the head of legal policy and ironically, j
12:03 am
trust vijaya ghadi, the globalad head of trust and safety. euille wrath and subsequent ce jack dorsey and parag agarwl and others. now, there was a concerted effort then to cover it all up. writing on twitter's official blog in july of 2018, the jagadeesh insisted that we do not shadow van and we certainly don't shadow van based on political viewpoints or ideology. and over tims ore, this twitter >>ec became more indignant. >> one of the biggest problems with censorship is the fact that you push peopleyo underground and you don't know what's goingu don' on . wor >> and this is something>> lau i worry about. oh, comera on , only thing that kept that woman up aatt night ws the possibility thatwoul conservative voices would somehow slip through the corporate censors. now, the first name mentioned mi on this twitter blacklist released tonight was someoneonee the angle first introduced to the national audience duringd
12:04 am
covid stanfords. dr. jay bhattacharyaur. ry he was one of the three authors of something that came to be kno known as the great baringtonrino declaration, which contendedof i with mountains of evidence that lockdown's were not justde e but dangerous, especially for our kids. that lockdown itself is not costless to left to life. and if you think about it, it, people have delayed cancer treatment. they've delayed going to the doctor because of even heart with severe heart disease, parents have not vaccinated their children. the lockdown costs will in lawsr ,in even the shortt to intermediate term, have larger a longer health conseq consequences for us here. >>ue right. according to his weiss, twitters deemed his research so dangerous that it secretlym placed him on ona trans blacklit . thank you,klis joe mccarthy, whh prevented his tweets from trending. vely in dr. bhattacharyya will join
12:05 am
us exclusively in just a few moments. now, remember, we just learneda a few weeka s back that this was all occurring at the same time, dr. anthony fouche, his daughter, worked as an engineer at twitter. and other names listed by weiss include prominent conservative such as charlie kirk and dan bongino since angle is pretty much the first nationale platform to slam the lockdown's, i suspecckdown't my own name will pop up on some suppression list eventually. >> i hope so.y. during the spring of 2020,elieve i myself notice and i believe i said it on the angle thatach f the reach of my own tweets m seemed to be oddly declining. but frankly, i think it was obvious to all of us .r question and one of the many questions lingering tonight is whether there was any contact between public health officialcontacs and twitter execs that encourage censorship of course,l for public safety.ic of course, when any of us questioned big tech's motives or practices during this time,otives and well, we wl
12:06 am
treated like paranoid conspiracy theorists. tyou would hear all of these congressional republicans being like, why am i being shadowland ? >> what have you been, bei my friend?ng all of these things like that. s and now we realize that that was a canard. a >> and the right talks about censorship and shadow banning,>> which there's been no real proof of, no real proof of. well, the only thing held up was legitimate public debate and scientific discourse, of course. th debate and there's plenty of. and it was worst, by the way, than just mere suppression. toward the end of weiss'sweiss' thread tonight, it becomes t clear that some within twitter leadership developed something of like a goshipd complex in eay 2020 one , you'll wrath again. ironically, the global head of trust and safety then unwittingly fingered dorsey for approving of the censorship and even use the word integr.a to describe what they were doing. we gotwe jac gotk on board with implementing this for civic integrity in the near
12:07 am
term. the neabut we're going to neede a more robust case to get this into our repertoire of policy recommendations. especially for other policy domains. oh, what does that mean? twitter's mission originally was to give everyone the powerss to creatioe and share ideas i and information instantly without barriers. >>de but we see now, without a a doubt, that all that was just a marketing campaign because bebarriers were an integral parr of their strategy to control sar and dominate the public square. now, imagine elon musk haduld never bought twitter, would never know anything about any of this. will it cost forty four billion dollars? rrupt, but now we see just how corrupt, how cutthroat and how devious big tech is . and that's the angle. ed dr. >> joining j me now is the aforementioned dr. jayssor o
12:08 am
bhattacharya, stanford university professor of medicinecine, doctor bhattachara ,your reaction tonight? this is blockbuster afte r secretlyetly you were placed on this trends blacklist, it feels likeeels l some novel froikm the nineteen fifties where the house e houn-american committee is meeting to to decide who to oppress. and i'm some sort of like movie star from in hollywood that blacklisting because i'm a communist or something. it's ridiculous.t or som. and it really hurt public. health. if we had an open discussion orhave the schools would not have c closed in the fall of 2020. if we had an open discussion, the lockdown's would have been lifted much earlier becaus beene data and evidence behind them was so bad. twitter, by suppressing scientific discussion, harms science, harm children and harm the american public. and i really do wonder how i ended up on the blog. i joined twitter in 2020 one in september.20se 2020 one who who told twitterpt0
12:09 am
to put me on a blacklist.21. i reallyo pua want to know. >> well at this point i think it is incumbent upon congress.ks dr. bhattacharyya, especially i kevin mccarthy. if he becomes the next speaker to drop all the formality here,e bring these people to congresshp and find out what reallyen happened. that means the calls, the texts, the emails, all between whether it was anthony fauci or someone else at nih, anything it evennih, soe touched on . this issue has w to be brought to the public light, in my view, because this it's haver you now or b ever been a member of the great barrington declaratio n feel like that? and you're such a nice guy. >> okay, thank you. i appreciate that. at i just i think from a publict policy point o f view, if yout did, i look at what the government did, i suspect ver y stronglythis b that there wasut some government direction on this. i've been involved with this ths
12:10 am
lawsuit that been brought by the missouri and louisianauin attorney general's offices against the bush administration. and we've uncoverea 's officeainst the d tremendous evidence that that there wereens federal agencies e that were tht were directing social media companies what to censor, even e who to censor.n wh now, i if that is actually the case that that that this blacklisting was directed by the government against american citizens, that'sil a direct violation of my civil rights. it's a direct violation of the first amendment. >> and every american shouldbe be outraged. well, the twitter gatekeeper's doctor about a shariah everywhere, of course, just a short while ago, disinformation consultant. that's her name. that's her title. melissa ryan downplays all that we learned tonight. and tonight'arn tonighs editione twitter files. we learned that despite getting ing access to all twitter's infoacc barry weiss didn't bother to read any of twitter's policies posted on its website. r'both she and musk should mus be embarrassed by this embarrassing.
12:11 am
my question is , where i is anthony fauci tonight? why isn't he speaking out aboutn prominent physicians being having their voices suppressedt ? >> i mean, i think a lot of the leadership of silicon valley, a lot of the a lot of the people who give advice to silicon valley and to the government about about thes theboute content, moderatit policies, they've gone wayhe too far . it's one thing to say to suppress violent threats against people is absolutely appropriate. but then to turn aroundpeople and then decide that they're goinropriate g to suppress discussions about basic scientific policy. i mean, i wasn't saying anything that was threatening people. other and maybe tony fauci and not not physically, just his ideas. we needed to have a discussionun wide open scientific discussion about the right policies were covered . imagine how different that all the small businesses stayed open, all the people that wouldn't have missed their cancer screenings, all the kids that wouldn't
12:12 am
be depressed and suicidal, thata all the learning loss,ll they could have been avoided if we just had an open scientific discussion. this was not a free, fair kind of discussion. it wasn't science that happened it was somethied hap the scienc it was not actually science we followed. it was something else entirely. ng else entithe censorship thatt i think led to the tremendously bad policies we've had over cogat and the failure that we've seen over the last three years. >> i'm going to take it further. i think this shadow bannin: gng actually could have. well, did a few steps removed. t it led to death. i mean, i think kids, because of these lockdowns, the mentalwn s, thehealth evidence that is pg up now all across the country, suicide, depression, anxiety, self-harm, everything we're seeing thahing we t came out ofe lockdowns, we couldn't talk about it. talwithout getting suppressed.e ca you were called a conspiracy theorist and so was i . i mean, it's basically a propaganda operation, right?
12:13 am
so how do yoo you what do you wt do you do when you have a thing like the internet where you can't really stop the information from spreading? what what you do is yoading.u yu chbteaux ban, you send out signals that this person is off limits. don't evendon' think about thi their ideas. it's like this sort of sly way of trying to get your way without actually arguing over facts. arguing overn saying i mean, i a instead of and it's also telling laura , instead ofver fa arguing over facts, they usect these techniques because use th they knew their arguments were not strong enough to survive the light of day. i mean, it's a really just don't know how to process it. i mean, i grew up in the u.s.. n i was born in india, grew up ina the u.s. since i was four. buve always thought aboui alwat united states as a free country, but it really hasn't felt that way. thest ite past three years. >> and i think now we're what th starting to see what the parameters of that are. i think we really need to have a national conversation that brings us back to the american r commitment to free speeceeh
12:14 am
rights, the american commitment to to open discussion and sort d of honest dealings. and i thinink the silicon vallet twitter crowd,te i mean, i think they behaved very badly. but i wonder, laura , if this d actually is at the direction oif the american government, then we have an even broader discussion to talk about. then i think we're justssion scratching the surface. and i think this these tactics that twitter employed pre mosque, they're being used ind a hole on a whole series of medicag l issues right now. we've talked about them on the angle, whether it's sex change operations or there's an entire effort to suppress speech or an honest discourse. and doctors are afraid sh to sk out. doctor , about it. shah, you gave an enormous amount of of information to us aner the last two and a half years. we're eternalla halfy grateful u . and i know you're planningou w to do tv tonight. th we really appreciatere. thank you. joining mer now is newt gingrio
12:15 am
,former housx e speaker and fox news contributor newt, the my question to you is , whyy can't we learn about everyonet who was shadow band now? well, just minutes ago, elonp al tweeted, twitter is workingon a on a software update that will show your true account status. so, you know, clearly,o ifon w you've been shadow band, the reason why you were and how to peel it note, i mean, should any of this exist in any iteration at this point? out look, i think all of it ought to come out in the open.is and , you know, you it's amazing that here is a firstre a generation, first generation immigrant to america who is doing more to uphold american values. the first amendment, your rightc of free speechh, than anybody we've ever seen. i mean, it's from remarkable what he's done so far . i hope he'll have the courage to continue and let it all out there. i mean, people deserve to know what was going on . and then the challenge comes
12:16 am
to facebook and to good to google to match that kind of openness because frankly, they've been at least as bad for google in some ways has been worse, i think, than than was twitter. and so these these systems are so gigantic. they are s, theyo powerful aul and there's so muc,h in everybody's lives thatth they have to be transparent orey we're going to have to do something pretty dramatic to limit their capacitamaticy. >> well, i mean, isn't this nowa beyond obvious that congress does have to step in here? i mean, republicans alwaysre wae to take a hands off approachyo to big business. but we've seen and you and i have talked about this thatusins time and again, big businesss,, not the 80s anymore. haths become diametrically opposed to the american tradition of fre e speech, sec second amendment, parental rights, et cetera, entalt ceter, and the weakness in the disinformation campaigns. >> all of that is part of it. i look, what you're seeing is isog what originally fascism was all about. all
12:17 am
which is the idea that bigtogetr government gets together t with big business to control the country against small o controbusiness and against individuals. and i think what we're going to find out where we'reo beginning to find out is that the fbi was deeply involves d in all this. we're going to find out, i think that the center forceco diseasntrol,e control, the dr.mr fauci who remember is a publicpc official. he's not just a celebrity.nt he is a government officialia with certain obligations i thi and certain responsibilities. and i think we're goinnkg to fi ouout t all of these people were violating the first amendment, behaving illegally, and that this is a much deeper and bigger mess than people realize. deeper now. i want to play this moment from this ex twitter safety chief, this guy, al rauf, just two weeks ago defending the twitter protocols. it we had a system of governance. he was rules based. themsforced our rule was rules as written. we changed our rules in writing. we did it transparently. and when that system ofy, you governance went away, you don't
12:18 am
you don't need dad a head of trusttwitter and safety. >> note for twitter leadership lem thto claimat t that they were transparent. i mean, now with everything we're saying, it's just it'snsiv just offensive. e.laura , i don't quite know for reasonable people how you get across the idea these people are just liars. it's not complicated. liars. they're liars. they lie all the time.the, they have total contempt fory c the rest of us .brthe rule they think they can break. the rules and get away with it. they think they are somehow this elite that's above us and e that we're too stupid to know d what they're doing. and i think weoi are all toois often and this is a case where, by the way, i think kevin mccarthy is showink g the right leadership with people like adam schiff, who was chairman olike adaf thee intelligence committee, just routinely lied to the american people, totally misinformed them. well, there ought to be a consequence and we ought o to start with simple, old fashioned language. these people are liars. these pethey ought to be ostrace
12:19 am
they ought to be kicked out of polite society. if there is such a thing w anymore.e sh but we shouldn't kid ourselves. i don't needouldn't any complex explanation when i'm looking at a total lie. >> if it wasn't just dr. jay bhattacharya who is targeted by twitter censorsay, coming up, i talk with charlie kirk, who is one ocof the biggest conservative counts that was blacklisted by twitter. details on how it all went down next. >> did you know that every time you drive in traffic, you're likely sharing the road with a sleepy driver? that is incredibly dangerous. sleep deprivation and insomnia affect up to 70 million people per year. and it's about time that we bring that number down with relaxium sleep. after years of watching patients struggle, i developed the formula for relaxium sleep relaxium sleep addresses. the root of the problem by balancing levels of neurotransmitters in the brain and by restoring the natural sleep cycle. the relaxium has been a miracle for us since and the risk is improved. our marriage.
12:20 am
i don't even know how we lived for thirty years without it, because now i know this man differently than i knew him before. >> not sleeping actually slows down your thought process. lack of sleep can lead to very serious overall health issues. with relaxium there's no second cup of coffee needed, no doctor's appointment necessary. and it's safe to take every night and it can start working from a very first night, just like it did for me. in a double blind placebo clinical trial. relaxium sleep help people fall asleep. one hundred and 40% faster. stay asleep over two hundred percent longer and wake up feeling refreshed if you're at home and all you're doing is flip flop and you're not getting calm enough to go to sleep, take relaxium sleep. it'll work. i promise. you it'll work. that's one of the many reasons i take relaxium . and so should you call now for a risk free opportunity to get

12:22 am
i think, of course, as a nutritionist, it's best to get all you can from your diet. but it wasn't till i started taking balance of nature that i started noticing a difference. so that's when i thought, okay, there's something about balance of nature that i need to tell the world about. so here i am. jump start your journey to better health for the new year and get twenty five dollars off, plus a free fiber and spice when you use discount code. >> fox news, sean breaks down the big stories like no one else. crisis after crisis, joe b if you run a small business, you need the most from every investment. that's why comcast business gives you more. more innovation... with our new gig-speed wi-fi, plus unlimited data. more speed... from the largest, fastest, reliable network... and more savings- up to 60% a year on comcast business mobile. all from the company that powers more businesses than any other provider. get started with fast speeds and advanced security for $69.99 a month for 12 months. plus ask how to get up to a $750 prepaid card with qualifying internet. well, we fell in love through gaming.

12:24 am
just say back in 2019, axios called my next guest, charlieca kirk, one of the biggest conservative megaphones on twitter. and in doing so, they unwittingly put a target lp on his back . now, in the lead up to the 2020e election, he noticed a massive drop in engagement and he felt h like he was being targeted, even censored. turns out he was right.ight included. idence the second dro tp of twitter files was evidence that charlie was one of the main accountse wn blacklisted on twitter, labeled by the twitter censors d by tand leadership as do not amplify. charlie kirk, founder of turning point usa, joins me now. charlie, have yoveu tried to get in touch with the new twitter team to get more details about a what happened and how this all went down of attempted through public discourse? i've attemptec discourse with elon and first i want to sa with elon? and first, i just want to sayy a i'm very happy that hesing t is releasinghi this informationd
12:25 am
in some ways i feel vindicated because i've been talking about thisthis for a couple of years endlessly. and people say, oh, yeah, okay,e sure, you're censorensd? twitte nor , actually , twitter single out our account and gavet a threat tag of do not amplify.t and so i would love to meet with elon or anybody on the twitter team and find out to what extent this was was done, when it was done and forrt what reason. but, laura , what i'm reallyabou curious about is , werey they told to do this by the fbi, by the doj, by the cdc,e you see, laura , back in20 whe the spring of 2020 when you were doing wonderful coverage about the danger of lockdowns and potential other treatments. i watss tweeting a lot of segments from your show. i was tweeting outgs i things i heard on your show from dr. atlas and the threat of lockdowns. and i could only imagine that what i was doing on twitter wasr "odirect threa wt to the kind of one size fits all consensusne that the cdc, pfizer , astrazeneca wanted to present on social media and so our engagement went anywhere
12:26 am
from one hundred twenty thousand tweets a day, downweet to eight hundred read tweets a day, basically suffocating our entire twitter account in hl the highly consequential year ofy 2020. r item remains a mystery. i can assume and speculate that i think they were evenwe more powerful actors behind this, thatrful a gave twitter or pushed twitter and said, hey, silence that charlieaid, guy. yeah, to that point, charlie,, elon musk confirmed today thatis some political candidates in the u.s. and elsewhere werewhile themselves subject to shadow banking while they were running for office. now, we don't have detailsnninge which candidates there were, the i think we can make a guess here. pretty informed guess of whichtr side of the aisle they weree on . correct. onyeah. >> i mean, yes, we know thater t twitter basically acteedd as ado democrat super pac, bucrt we'rew looking at here and it's important to reiterate the context is an unprecedented twenty firstiterate century technological interference operatiochnologin happening witt even realizing the extent of it. and i think a lot of
12:27 am
your viewers right now on the angle have feel like i'm losing my country, but w i know we're in the majority. why does it feel as if we're t our opinionst push and views out? and thanks to ellen's courage, m and bravery of releasing these knles, we now know tha ct the mediumows of which we have to express our opinions, it's not a fair playing field. pla it's direcit'st interference. and i mean, this. republican congres s coming into january , if they are notnot wi willing to look into thills and demand subpoenas and testimony and have criminal anreferrals, i mean, they willng be worthless from the beginning. they. eed to go after this. this is the great interferencee operation of a generation that ,in my personal opinion, is only further delegitimize the integrity of the twenty twenty election. when we talk abouty of the the , story, covid and all of the heterodox opinions weren't able to be shared in that consequential year. >> well, i think the the phrase shadow banning, i don't think we should use it. this is pure censorship.
12:28 am
yes. banning kind of sounds like, it r, it's not s bo great, but is it really that bad? adi think we get we get caught p in the left wing. trappes of of their , you know, semantic massaging, you know,gio they're verbal massaging off what they're doing, whether it's to our kids d or in thismae case, to free speech. maybe it's t to gun rights. it's gun safety., gu it's not anti second amendment legislative move. so this is censorship. >> ythey targeted you. i assume the angle was targetede and prominent doctors i mean, we bhattacharyya on our showd last night, jay bodycheck and peter mccullough, we had both of them on two of the mostn renowned thinkers on these issues, cardiologist's, of course, mccallan epidemiologist ,one of the most published e cardiologists in the unitepidhe states . i mean, if they can do it for t to him, as i said, they cahen du to anyone. and lo course, they did it to you and lord knows who isy really directing this or suggesting it strongly from the biden or the trump administration.
12:29 am
yeah, that's right.me t >> what's done in darknesso will come to light and we have to make a pledge. this will never happen again. we need a restoration of the public square and these people in charge in the regime in the biden administration. the otherwise, they knew what they were doing was unethical and wrong. g waunethicathey temporarily bem it. but now we have to mak e suree people are legitimately held accountable for what i believe is the unethical and probably criminal nature ofe suppre the suppression and censorship of millions of voices. >> now, election tampering. charlie, great to see you. thank you. and then there was the twitterrf effort to suppressfo one hundred laptop story and that saga, we found a familiaraa character who was also deeply involved in russia gate. >> we explain it next. the ministry of changed the world forever. it's one thing to read about the life of , but to make the story of truly come to life. i knew i had to see it for myself as we go on this journey, we're joined by experts along the way. >> really know this is the

12:36 am
see is that is interesting, you know, coincidence. and, you know, it'sn. a distraction. >> she's getting better reading, but that's her best defense. now, it makes sensr bee. all u they're rushinndg to sweep it al under the rug after we learn one familiar name was involvedt that was submerged kind of in jask's big reveal, james baker. no, not the former secretary of state, this baker.e now, you may remember that he was at the heart of the russia collusion hoax while he was general counsel for the fbi. it was there in 2016 where he linked up democrat hitman fbi michael sussmann with top fbi investigators. 2020 stay with me in june of 2020 in the middle of that contentious presidential election, twitter conveniently announceidentialtion, twd that g on board as deputy general counsegeneral l. the s now, ichn the scheme to suppress "thenew york post report about one hundredth laptop came to baker's desk. he claimed i t was reasonablewere
12:37 am
for twitter to assume the materials were hacked. of course, it was this formeratt intel buddies who launder that little narrativetl. now, it's important to remember that at no point did the posttho claistm to have thame obtained hack materials. >> joining mmae noterialw is mia devine, "new york post" devimnist, fox news contributor, author of laptop o from keeps getting more .ell. and mike davis, founder, president of the internet accountability project . inw, a lot of people watching might kind of remember this baker characterrememb, buty is he important? and it's just come on come o, te is just a coincidence. right? i mean, so he goes to twitter's twitter's employments for the top top executive. james baker was a good friend and ally of, of course, james comey. it was baker a beike as the topr at the fbi who wrote the memo that exonerate free exonerated really hillary clinton. he was behind all the russia
12:38 am
collusion hoaxes to try and get rid of donald trump. and in the end, in 2018, christopher basically threw hima out of that general counsel role. and he shortly afterwards resigned and he showed up at twitter, strangely enough, just five months before the twenty twenty election. >> eio and he was, of course, rt in the center of the decision to censor the new york post.cenr he, of course, you won't be surprised to know he was on the side of censorship to oro on the side of caution. mikeell, they also turned out, mike , to the fbi warned twitter during these weekly meetings before the twenty twenty electio forn to expect ht and leak operations by state actors lea involving hunter and likely in october, according to that sworn declaration by twitter's former head of site integrity, joelio roth.
12:39 am
how is that important? >> well, it's amazing that webi have these big tech platforms, i facebook, twitter, google, colluding with the fbi, with the governmen, t to censor silence, platform conservatives ,others with whom they disagree, including the oldest newspaper in america, the new york poste olar . and it was this jim baker who just happens to be the forrest gump of all theseese scandals. platdfothe guy behin the russian collusionws up with sussmann. and then hate shows up at twittr and he's he's the guy pushing the censorship of the new york post. >> and by the way, miranda,he cs this kind of he calls himself, a i guess, a former republican .r now, this guy, matt dowd,y he's saying that this was alla kind of a good thing, that twitr >>itter did this watch this. >> what amazes me is the elon wa musk might have been a little more time reading the first amendment and what it saidand wh, because his immediae thing was this was a violation v of the first amendment when it'siorst amen far as i can telo government authority told twitter not to do something. it was amazing to me that all
12:40 am
of these sort of fox news or whoever else jumped on this without evered on th fullyy understanding that it was basically meaningless. what happened in thas whatt thig actually turned out to be a good thing. >> l? anda well, i guess maybe he doesn't understand that if the fbi goes to twitter and instructs themem or persuades them to print punk and post story to pre censor it, then that is a violation of the first amendment. i do agree in one sense that elon musk did not released no anything that was really useful when it comes to the fbi's intervention. and i wonder if that is because james baker is still there. and i assume that elon musk hadv to get his release of variousar documents cleared by twitter's lawyers before they went to matt taibbi. so maybe t twitter's lawyers
12:41 am
only allowed one little email from james baker, had all the identifying the date, the time, all seane dates, from which was very interesting. and the other thing abou te ot james baker, that we need to remember is that he also between the fbi and twitter, went to work for the lawfareworr blog, which is attached to the brookings institution, where a numberkings in of the fifty one former intel operatives who signedte that dirty letter,r that dishonest letter, saying saying that our stor biat our story and biden's laptop was a russian disinformation operation. so he's connected to them as well. he's jonatha as wen turley callm the kevin bacon of russian collusion, six degrees of separation, or james baker. all right. they tried to kind of deflectato from the twitter revelations. u i think miranda's right. they need the raw data to come out, but they're doing it by saying, well, trump is thee u guy who's anti constitutionhis o

12:53 am
i think the perfect example is this story where we are learning so much about what twitter did to suppress free speech and debate about the biden family business bin its possible corruptio that was in this biden laptopbi story and learningla details. wa need learning who was involved, how muchs democrats were involved in suppressing this news that americans hadsu ppericans every right to know be t from themy was kep by these b bad actors. >> mike , i want to go to you,g because as youto read what matt taibbi is releasing with his sub stackat, number nine point number nine is that celebrities and unknowns like could be removed or reviewed at the behest of a political party. okay, then it goesl part on to y both parties had access to these tools. for instance, ins 2020 requests from both the trump white house and the biden campaign werehonoe received and honored. but the system wasn't balancedt because twitter itself, taibbi goes on to say, was of
