1/ Matt Taibbi falsely says @nytimes report by @nytmike @mattapuzzo @MarkMazzettiNYT was “untrue” and “wrong”. This is false, another #TwitterFiles failure cc @elonmusk. The story was 100% accurate. Receipts:

2/ Carter Page, named in the report as a possible Trump official, who has met with senior Russian govt sources admitted himself that he had done so, meeting the Russian dep PM in July 2016 #TwitterFiles

3 / Paul Manafort passed polling data to Russian intelligence officer Konstantin Kilimnik dni.gov/files/ODNI/doc… - again Manafort admitted as much. IMO, that’s @nytimes 2, @mtaibbi and #TwitterFiles 0

4/ @GenFlynn is also in the report. Perhaps @mtaibbi has forgotten Flynn was literally paid by @Russia to attend a banquet with Putin, and. @DrJillStein. Peskov was there too. Perhaps the Twitter Files would like to persuade us that Putin is not a “senior 🇷🇺 govt official”?

5/5 in short, everything in the report is accurate. #TwitterFiles technique appears to be loudly, falsely and - most important- *repeatedly* saying negative reporting on Russia was “wrong” with zero evidence, when it was in fact correct. #TeamPatriot “We Bring Receipts”
