The basic premise of Jack’s Magic Coffee Shop was to use Twitter as a platform built upon a mission to control and influence public opinion.
As a result of the evolution, the growth of the public-private partnership, content moderation flows through DHS. If the system operators allowed you to see that your opinions were not in the minority, it would be a risk for those in power. The foundation of the mission would be compromised.
Against the backdrop of Twitter triggering suspensions and content removal for any account critical of U.S-Ukraine policy, apparently Elon Musk is perplexed about the system operators of his platform acting to support government and control public opinion.
Either Elon Musk really doesn’t know who is operating his platform, or this is a very public exhibition of Mr Musk pretending not to know. You decide.
State Governments caught censoring “election misinformation” using Twitter Partner Portal to unconstitutionally censor 1st Amendment rights of American citizens
1/After President Trump won in 2016, the Democrat Party pushed the Russia Collusion narrative to delegitimize his administration
Many federal, state, and NGO entities ramped-up censorship efforts online in the name of stopping “foreign interference”
2/California passed Elections Code §10.5, which created the Office of Elections Cybersecurity in 2018 to “educate voters” with “valid information” through empowering election officials (“OEC”)
This mandate quickly and predictably devolved into a political weapon for censorship
The Twitter File #7 release shows an active 2020 political mind-control operation conducted by the FBI in advance of the election. This operation is very similar to what the FBI did in 2016 when it fabricated the bogus Trump-Russia story—the infamous “Collusion Delusion.”
The FBI is spying and using information it gathers to control the American people. In doing this, the FBI is behaving no differently than the secret police of the Soviet Union, the FSB.
Social media is under DHS surveillance, facilitated by platform partnerships and the FBI mission is based on the results. Domestic thought crimes and wrong-speak are a high priority.
…Factually, a solid argument could be made that this specific release shows how the FBI Russiagate effort against Trump needed to exit Washington DC following the 2016 election, and so the majority of FBI’s anti-Trump activity for 2020 shifted to San Francisco.
Former FBI Legal Counsel James Baker was fired after the Russiagate activity started to surface. Baker then becomes the General Counsel at Twitter, able to coordinate and receive ongoing FBI efforts. Baker would be positioned to influence Twitter executives to accept the FBI instructions as well as deflect any internal questions that might arrise about the platform being used as an extension of the FBI.
As noted by James Baker’s email in the file release, Baker also dissuaded the financial concerns by coordinating payments from the FBI to cover the internal costs to Twitter. The FBI was paying Twitter for influence and control operations and James Baker handled that transfer of funds.
On the financial side of the equation, I would be on the lookout for additional information about subsidies on the tech side of the platform operation. Specifically, data processing offsets for Twitter as a result of this DHS/FBI/ODNI relationship. My suspicion for multiple years has been that Twitter tech shifted from an open portal type connection (front of building) to Twitter actually operating on the backbone of DHS servers (back of building).
The massive herd of elephants in the guard tower is we know the FBI was doing this not just with Twitter but also with other social media platforms, MSM, and more. The even bigger and more important question is who is giving the FBI its orders? Who is controlling them? Who is really running this country? No way it’s Brandon. No way its us citizens. ABN
How the FBI & intelligence community discredited factual information about Hunter Biden’s foreign business dealings both after and *before* The New York Post revealed the contents of his laptop on October 14, 2020
In Twitter Files #6, we saw the FBI relentlessly seek to exercise influence over Twitter, including over its content, its users, and its data.
1. THREAD: The Twitter Files, Part Six TWITTER, THE FBI SUBSIDIARY
Facebook currently employs at least 115 people, in high-ranking positions, that formerly worked at FBI/CIA/NSA/DHS:
17 CIA 37 FBI 23 NSA 38 DHS
2. All, but a few, of the former intelligence agents were hired, by Facebook after the 2016 Presidential Election & after the FBI established their social media-focused task force FTIF.
3. As @mtaibbi detailed in #TwitterFiles Part 6, we know there was massive coordination of censorship between the FBI & Twitter during 2020-2022.
This is asymmetric warfare. Many of these people see themselves as soldiers, “combatants against misinfo.” And you can be certain many of them have handlers or superior officers who control battalions and regiments of hostile actors within the borders of USA, working in many other areas besides information-control. Covid has had the grisly benefit of showing anyone who cares to look how deep and dirty this side of our society is, riddled with self-righteous parasites and enemy combatants who are feeding on the wealth of this nation while disrupting all of the societal organizations that created it.

An agent asked Mayorkas to provide his definition of “secure borders” after the secretary publicly said the southern border is “secure” amid record levels of illegal immigration.
“Again, he is lying his ass off saying that ‘no, I never said that,’” the agent who spoke with the DCNF said.
“‘We’re agents, we’ve seen you, we heard you,’” the agent said, adding that Mayorkas again denied making the statement and moved on to another question.
Agents also asked Mayorkas about why his strategy to curb illegal immigration is to increase their holding capacity, according to the agent.
Many of our public figures are in reality not actors or politicians or business leaders, they are enemy combatants, soldiers in an asymmetric war against USA. They lie, they cheat, they steal, and they work diligently at mass mind-control while simultaneously undermining USA through lockdowns, illegal immigration, bad policies, and “diversity” which too often serves to augment only their forces. These people are soldiers without uniforms fighting a war most Americans do not realize is happening though many can feel it. When we do not have the words or conventions to speak about something, that something will drift into a psycholinguistic limbo state where it appears semi-invisible, only partly real. Mayorkas is using this technique on the border by dissembling, denying the obvious, making empty promises. ABN
A new trove of internal communications from Twitter suggests that the FBI maintained persistent contact with company employees in recent years, frequently proposing user bans, including for strident Trump critic and actor Billy Baldwin, and what appear to be satire accounts.
‘Twitter’s contact with the FBI was constant and pervasive, as if it were a subsidiary,’ argued journalist Matt Taibbi, who shared the documents in a Twitter thread on Friday afternoon.
FBI officials, meeting with Twitter executives, told them there was ‘no impediment’ to sharing classified information with them, according to an internal memo.
The files were the latest in a series of documents to be released after Twitter’s new owner Elon Musk gave a group of hand-picked journalists access to the company’s internal records.
‘Between January 2020 and November 2022, there were over 150 emails between the FBI and former Twitter Trust and Safety chief Yoel Roth,’ claimed Taibbi.
‘But a surprisingly high number are requests by the FBI for Twitter to take action on election misinformation, even involving joke tweets from low-follower accounts,’ he added.
Twitter founder Jack Dorsey has admitted that the social media company’s many failures were his fault – before immediately blaming one of the tech firm’s activist investors.
In a blog post published Tuesday, Dorsey owned up to allowing the company to stray from preserving free of speech, but added that he only allowed that to happen when he ‘no longer had hope’ maintaining it after an unnamed investment group bought up stock in the company in 2020.
Dorsey did not specify which company that was, but he was likely pointing to the Elliot Management, which that year bought a majority share in Twitter for $387million under the direction of managing partner Jesse Cohn, who then set about trying to oust Dorsey.
The former Twitter CEO’s comments come as the new chief twit Elon Musk started releasing internal Twitter files from before his take over, which showed that the company actively tried to suppress the tweets of many conservative account-holders.
Jesse Cohn, a managing partner at the $55billion hedge fund Elliot Management which bought a majority share in Twitter in 2020 for $387million
I have been unable to find Dorsey’s blog. In the linked article, Dorsey makes it clear that he lost control of Twitter to a wealthy investor. According to this article, Dorsey wanted to established 3 rules for Twitter, which he believes should apply to all social media companies:
He said that the first rule for social media companies ought to be ‘resilience to corporate and government control,’ as well as only allowing the ‘original author to remove content they produce,’ and finally relying on ‘algorithmic choice’ to implement moderation online.
I’m not going to write extensively about this because I respect your intellectual ability to see the obvious. Questions have been raised about why the Twitter File releases appear to have been structured in a fashion to protect government interests.
Well, the new Bari Weiss website that was set up to launch as an exclusive outcome of the Twitter File release, includes a current contributor and former 2020 control officer of the DOJ who would have facilitated the DHS/FBI contact with social media; the stuff that is transparently missing from the Twitter File releases.
Yes, former AG Bill Barr is a content partner with Twitter File narrative engineer Bari Weiss. Gee, I wonder how that happens?
Oh look, and what a coincidence… they are both promoting Ron DeSantis.
This kind of information reveals the narrative control networks and how they are arranged and interact. Who the players are and how they are connected. At near-the-top levels they all speak with the same voice. At higher levels of control all sides of whatever issue are enfolded into the network as controlled opposition. We can be sure about Barr and quite sure about Weiss but may still wonder about Musk. What role is he playing? Is he controlled opposition, a limited hangout, a red-herring or a real person with an active spirit and imagination? I can forgive his too-early support of DeSantis as maybe he does not understand American politics.
Maybe Musk is fooling his handlers and will dump all the Twitter documents exposing all the crimes just before Christmas. I am willing to wait awhile and listen to him charitably. We can be sure he is under enormous pressure to submit to control. I am certain there is a very large carrot and a very large stick hanging over him and he knows it in detail. And he knows what happened to Ye, whose handler he may even share. ABN
“What they have done against the American people is destroy the Department of Justice… We have to call these people out. At this moment in time Elon Musk giving out all this information is our one chance at getting it all back.” ~ Kash Patel
Patel describes a large and filthy parasitic subculture feeding on USA through its control of DOJ, FBI, and more. Infiltration, usurpation, asymmetric war, call it what you like, this is far more serious than mere government corruption. Today is a test of Elon Musk’s depth. Is he going to expose only some of the evidence to sanitize it, to program the public and fold Twitter into a mind-control narrative that condones parasitism and ruination of USA? Or is he going to deliver all the goods and help resurrect USA? This is a major turning-point. ABN
The entirety of Twitter File #5 release surrounds this internal Twitter dynamic, carefully avoiding any discussion or sunlight from outside government actors who may have been in direct contact with the senior Twitter team.
Indeed, the documents chosen to provide evidence of the debate and decision to remove President Trump are transparently devoid of any inbound government contact to the Twitter organization.
Thus, at the end of Ms. Weiss carefully written expose’, she concludes with this:
See, it’s only “a handful of people at a private company“…. Nothing to see here folks, move along, move along.
1. On the morning of January 8, President Donald Trump, with one remaining strike before being at risk of permanent suspension from Twitter, tweets twice.
2. 6:46 am: “The 75,000,000 great American Patriots who voted for me, AMERICA FIRST, and MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN, will have a GIANT VOICE long into the future. They will not be disrespected or treated unfairly in any way, shape or form!!!”
3. 7:44 am: “To all of those who have asked, I will not be going to the Inauguration on January 20th.”
