    You read the three and you don't see a strong resemblance to what's happening today? EO's to take over anything the Gov want in the name of NATIONAL SECURITY... Pretty friggin weird my friend

    Uh huh... is that why it took someone from the Department of Homeland Security to get a minor's sexually explicit video taken down? LINK: Elon Musk Says Child Sexual Exploitation Content Is a Top Priority (businessinsider.com)

    And don't try to ignore the fact that the Hunter Biden laptop story was claimed as Russian disinformation when it came out before the election. (by the FBI in point of fact)

    Who was in charge of the executive branch when the FBI made that claim?

    Who chose the head of the FBI at the time that claim was made?

    Yea, that is going to happen from time to time. It doesn't mean we are heading to Ayn Rand's dystopia.

    There is plenty of Handmaid's tale stuff going too, it doesn't mean we are heading towards Margret Atwood's dystopia.

    The power of the government regardless of status can be intimidating. This was clearly shown by the threat Sen. Markey posed at Musk.

    If you recall there were hearings over Twitter's 230 status.

    Then you have the FBI telling the Twitter team to be on the look out for stories regarding Hunter's laptop. What did the FBI want Twitter to do other than to squash any mention of it?

    Come on man, open your eye! The DNC has the majority of the media in their back pocket, "Elon" will prove more later, IF he doesn't magically disappear! The great reset, the digitizing of the U.S. dollar and one world currency and most of all ESG! Atlas Shrugged covers that at length, if you'd read the series, you would no that :)

    Irrelevant. But I'd LOVE for you to try and explain how Trump would order/endorse censorship of a story that would put Biden in a bad light.

    I don't think anyone ordered a cover up to help the Bidens.

    I think the FBI was doing it's job.

    The people who seem to think the FBI was acting politically seem to be ignoring the fact that the FBI had a Republican director hand picked by the Republican president.

    The FBI had a Republican director that was hand picked by Trump. It's pathetic to act like they were working for Biden.

    Yea, Republicans have been in charge of the FBI since it came into existence.

    Seems like you don't like how Republicans have managed the FBI.

    Then why were "Twitter" approached by the FBI? You really think Trump was having them contact Twitter and squelching the Hunter stuff LMFAO :)

    Is it possible they had actual reason to believe that Russian misinformation was a threat?

    Doesn't matter! Trump had no control over Washington. We know that, even his own party was stabbing him in the back..

    Trump had no control? Why would anyone support such an impotent man for office?

    Maybe you should read those Twitter Files instead of thinking you know the answer.

    Obviously you don't know much about the swamp. It was FBI agents at the top that was going after Trump. They conspired to get a bogus FISA warrant to spy on his campaign and administration. Do you really think they were afraid of the "Boss"? Hell! Even Comer admitted he took advantage of Trump's administration during the early days.

    Was Comey working for Trump or against Trump during these times?
