1. #TwitterFiles & #FacebookFiles A deep dive into how Twitter & Facebook became willing partners with The Deep State
Should Facebook & Twitter hiring practices, along with their close ties to FBI, CISA & other Government Agencies be a focus in @Jim_Jordan investigation?
2. At a September 5, 2018 Senate hearing, @Jack stated, “We’ve really strengthened our PARTNERSHIP with Government Agencies since 2016.”
Jack requests regular meetings with “Twitter’s Law Enforcement partnerships” & asks for a “single point of contact” with the Government
3. Twitter was not pressured at all. @jack went to Congress requesting more help expanding their already existing "partnerships" with Law Enforcement & Government.
7. At this same Senate hearing, Facebook COO Sheryl Sandberg testified that Facebook receives “hints from law enforcement” on censorship of “fake news.”
She also states that Facebook coordinates with other social media firms in this effort
8. Since 2018, Facebook hired over 100 former FBI/CIA/NSA/DHS.
11. Brian testified that, since 2018, CISA had regular meetings between “Federal partners” and social media platforms.
The purpose of the calls was to discuss misinformation & threats on social media platforms.
12.“FACEBOOK WAS THE INDUSTRY LEAD”
Brian testified that prior to the meetings, he would have private “coordination calls” with Facebook to “set the agenda”
Was Facebook’s new hire, Ex-CIA Aaron Berman, CISA’s primary contact at Facebook?
Did he help "set the agenda"?
13. Twitter, Microsoft, Google, Reddit, and others, all participated in the Facebook/CISA led conference calls.
14. @elonmusk, after you slammed CISA for running a propaganda platform, do you still allow Twitter to participate in these monthly, misinformation sharing, calls with CISA?
15. Conference calls between CISA, social media companies & other government agencies were held monthly, sometimes bi-weekly
16. What other Government Agencies participated in the meetings led by Facebook & CISA?
DOJ, FBI, ODNI & DHS
17. Elvis Chan (familiar name from #TwitterFiles) was the FBI’s point man in the Facebook/CISA led meetings with social media platforms.
18. Outside of the monthly CISA conference calls, we know FBI’s Elvis Chan & other agencies bombarded Twitter with requests to censor what they deemed as misinformation.
19. Flagging of “misinformation” sharing with social media platforms started in April 2022, ahead of the 2022 Midterms Election.
20. Twitter was in direct contact with EIP (Election Integrity Project). EIP was founded in 2020 to identify election misinformation ahead of the 2020 Presidential Election. CISA(DHS) farmed out most of the misinformation flagging to EIP
21. EIP is run by Stanford, University of Washington, Graphika & The Atlantic Council with the goal to identify mis/disinformation & share their findings with 15 social media platforms. For more info @kanekoaTheGreat’s thread:
22.The Deep State, Democrats & MSM were outraged by the election of @realdonaldTrump. Starting around 2018, there was an aggressive concerted effort to make sure he was not re-elected.
23.The Deep State used a two-pronged approach to achieve their goals:
💥Partnerships between Social Media and Government (CISA)
💥Social Media hiring of 100’s of former Intelligence Agents. Former CIA agents now manage misinformation censorship at both Facebook & Google.
24. After achieving their goal of getting Trump out of office, this Social Media/Deep State partnership is now ostensibly being used to censor & socially engineer our views on COVID, vaccines, climate, race relations, Russia/Ukraine War, etc.

1. After learning that Twitter employs at least 15 former FBI agents, I searched Facebook. What I found is alarming
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
Thread🧵
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.
Who is controlling “misinfo” censorship at Facebook?
Is there similar coordination between Facebook & the Intelligence community?
