Elon Musk, who has not been on the agenda since the day he bought the social media platform Twitter, became the agenda of the world with the last disclosure of the company’s former management. In his last post on Twitter, Musk, within the framework of his disclosures under the name Twitter Files for about two weeks, “The government paid Twitter millions of dollars to censor information from the public.” used the phrases.
FBI PAID MILLIONS OF DOLLAR FEES
According to the information in the Twitter Files section 7, Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) officials have paid millions of dollars in overtime wages to Twitter staff and employees on other social media platforms “to meet censorship and other demands.”
“The fact that the FBI paid Twitter millions of dollars for staff working overtime for its impact campaign,” Musk, an independent journalist named Michael Shellenberger, reposted in his tweet series. He gave his statement and shared the screenshot of the internal correspondence documenting that the secret service paid $ 3 million 415 thousand 323 from 2019 to 2021.
“So the government is paying Twitter to censor people,” Musk said of one of his followers. “Not only to Twitter, but also to other social media companies.” gave the answer.
In another post, Elon Musk asked House Intelligence Chairman Adam Schiff, “As the Speaker of House Intelligence, have you approved the secret state censorship that directly violates the US Constitution?” posed the question.
Targeting US newspapers, Musk said, “Newspapers just search the internet and print it.” he wrote.
TWITTER FILES
For the past two weeks, Elon Musk has been supporting the disclosures of a group of journalists who have been researching and posting Twitter’s internal documents.
These threads of tweets, dubbed the “Twitter Files” by Twitter’s new executive and independent journalists, are considered an effort to prove that Twitter’s former administration deliberately silenced conservatives because of their political views.
Independent journalist Michael Shellenberger retweeted by Elon Musk yesterday, in the Twitter Files Section 7, FBI San Francisco Special Agent Elvis Chan put pressure on Twitter executives on some issues, especially the Hunter Biden file, the son of US President Joe Biden. He shared that he was trying to give direction.
Musk previously fired Twitter’s deputy general counsel and former FBI general counsel James Baker, citing his concerns over his “possible role in suppressing information important to public dialogue.”
