Twitter Files Part III: Twitter Worked In Coordination With U.S. Government To Censor Content During 2020 Election

The third installment of the so-called “Twitter Files” released Friday night showed that federal agencies were in contact with Twitter during the 2020 presidential election and were involved in censoring content on the platform.

The thread, which journalist Matt Taibbi took nearly three hours to post in full, contained a great deal of valuable information, but also some significant errors — ranging from appearing to not accurately describe some of the content to calling Rep. Jody Hice (R-GA) a “congresswoman” to calling Mike Huckabee the former governor of Arizona.
 

Despite these errors and others, much of the information that was released was stunning as it confirmed long held suspicions about things that were going on at the company, including the revelation that executives sometimes went against their own policies when determining to censor former President Donald Trump, as well as the fact that all the censorship appeared to come solely from the political Left and government entities and was aimed at the political Right.
