Another round of Twitter files has just dropped…and the latest bombshell continues to expose how our government agencies were working with Twitter to promote censorship and prevent opposition.
A new revelation has revealed how Democratic Representative Adam Schiff attempted to use his political influence to ban investigative journalist Paul Sperry from social media platform.
According to journalist Matt Taibbi, Twitter accepted requests “from all over: from Treasury, the NSA, virtually every state, the HHS, from the FBI and DHS, and more.”
Taibbi continued on to report that, “They also received an astonishing variety of requests from officials asking for individuals they didn’t like to be banned. Here, the office for Democrat and House Intel Committee chief Adam Schiff asks Twitter to ban journalist Paul Sperry.”

Twitter CEO Elon Musk was quick to call out Schiff:
Hey @RepAdamSchiff, what’s this?

Ultimately, Sperry was removed from Twitter, although he wasn’t immediately banned, as requested by Schiff.
28.“WE DON’T DO THIS” Even Twitter declined to honor Schiff’s request at the time. Sperry was later suspended, however. pic.twitter.com/9PX2Zw5Nzj

And this isn’t the first time Musk has called out Washington politicians for their corruption on Twitter, as he has previously destroyed Schiff on his lack of intelligence.
Democrat Senator Elizabeth Warren was also targeted by Musk after she attempted to call out Tesla.
The United States has definitely been harmed by having her as a senator lol

Apparently Warren is accusing Musk of abusing power since he took over the social media platform, which is awfully ironic considering the fact that she herself is a member of the political elite class in America.
Warren states in the letter:
“As you know, it is the legal obligation of Tesla’s board to ensure that its C.E.O. is meeting all his legal responsibilities and serving as an effective leader.”
