Jonathan Turley and Michael Shellenberger Sweep the Leg out From Under FBI Response to Twitter Files

The response by the FBI to the damning information in the Twitter files has been less than satisfactory.
Their first response suggested that the contacts with the social media platform were all just completely normal contacts, that they weren’t asking Twitter to take any action against the Americans who were then subsequently censored.
The FBI regularly engages with private sector entities to provide information specific to identified foreign malign influence actors’ subversive, undeclared, covert, or criminal activities. Private sector entities independently make decisions about what, if any, action they take on their platforms and for their customers after the FBI has notified them.”
They claimed they weren’t asking social media or any of the private sector entities they were contacting to “take action” against anyone.
“We are providing it so that they can take whatever action they deem appropriate under their terms of service to protect their platform and protect their customers, but we never direct or ask them to take action,” the FBI officials said.
