Elon Musk Releases 'Twitter Files' Confirming Employees Were Censoring for Dems in 2020"...Slowly, over time, Twitter staff and executives began to find more and more uses for these tools. Outsiders began petitioning the company to manipulate speech as well: first a little, then more often, then constantly..." -Matt Taibbi [LifeSiteNews.com] Newly-minted Twitter owner Elon Musk on Friday honored his promise to release the so-called "Twitter files," internal records revealing the big tech platform's censorship practices and the backstory behind the suppression of the Hunter Biden laptop story just ahead of the 2020 presidential election.

"It was based on contacts. Because Twitter was and is overwhelmingly staffed by people of one political orientation, there were more channels, more ways to complain, open to the left (well, Democrats) than the right," Taibbi said, confirming conservatives' longtime suspicions that right-wing voices and entities are more regularly targeted on social media than their left-wing counterparts. Taibbi then jumped into the story about Twitter's involvement in suppressing the Hunter Biden laptop story. "Twitter took extraordinary steps to suppress the story, removing links and posting warnings that it may be 'unsafe,'" Taibbi wrote...
