Notable Quotes
“This has to be the craziest oversight. So they're trying to release the Twitter files, evidence that the FBI was involved in suppression of information on Twitter. There is a portal for them to use on Twitter and Facebook to manipulate and censor information.”
— Tim Pool · opening segment on Twitter Files
“When this guy is ousted from the FBI, he eventually finds his way to Twitter. And then get this. It was in 2018 that Yoel Roth of Twitter said he got in contact with the DNI, with DHS, with FBI. And then sure enough, this disgraced establishment deep state FBI guy gets a top lawyer position for Twitter.”
