Gotta love how NYT rushes to the defense of the FBI even after what Twitter Files has exposed along with the Horowitz IG report. That rag really has turned into Pravda. It's quite sad.

#6 Danforth - You clearly haven't even perused the reporting. But you sure as heck watched every last second of the J6 show trials with zero cross examination of any witness. But I digress.

I remember a time when the left was wary of powerful government agencies like the FBI and CIA. Now, the left acts as their mouthpieces.

I honestly don't think I've ever seen you post a comment of any value. It's remarkable, when you really think about it. Your contribution to discussion on this site is below zero.

You are a complete loser.

"Oh and don't bother with any of them silly Congressional subpoenas.
Those mean absolutely nothing now. Thanks to Trumpy's republicans.

You are probably correct because the Biden DOJ is extremely politicized and would never prosecute a contempt of congress charge on any of it's perceived allies. However, if it's a foe who defies a congressional subpoena, this happens:

"Stephen K. Bannon Sentenced to Four Months in Prison on Two Counts of Contempt of Congress"

#13 I never said anything of the sort. I had very low expectations for what Durham would produce.

It's not my fault that your memory is terrible.

The deck was and is stacked against him. As it is, the IG uncovered all sorts of corrupt acts and the media yawned.

It truly is amazing how authoritarian the left has become - the hippies of the day were very anti-establishment. Now that they have most of the power they've become what they used to abhor.

You keep saying Twitter Files are a flop.

What are you basing that on? Are they pulling a Dan Rather and using fake documents to back up their reporting?

#25 IG's don't indict.

Clownshack sure loves to bootlick the FBI.

#41. So they are lying? What's contained in the screenshots is meaningless?

Zweig, Schellenberger, Weiss and Taibbi are all hacks and are helping Musk create a false narrative?

You do realize that in response the FBI admitted that it has regular complication with Twitter and other platforms, right?

complication = communication

#45. I understand narratives. I also know they are shown to be narratives with counter factual evidence. I am not aware of a single mainstream outlet that has reached out to Musk so they can do their own reporting. Nor am I aware of any outlet reaching out to current or former employees asking about what's been revealed. I wonder why that is.

#14 if you don't know what is wrong then you are beyond help.

That was addressed to 46 Fat fingers.

" Has Musk offered them access to the "Twitter files"? Without that access, I can understand why no outlet is reaching out to current or former employees. I hope none of them has been asked to sign a nondisclosure document."

He has given 4 journalists access. Given the scope one would assume other outlets would be chomping at the bit to dig in and would be begging for access. Nothing but crickets so far.

"

I asked in #7 and you never answered. Are you saying that the FBI should not be allowed to have any communication with social media companies? Or not be allowed to have communication with any companies in general?"

I'm not going to do your work for you. We now have ten news dumps as to s what has been going on. Twitter Files are open to the public.

Here is a fairly balanced take on this issue

With the Twitter Files I do understand skepticism given the self promotion by rolling the reporting out on Twitter itself and giving the reporting a flashy name.
