    Elon Musk is vowing more Twitter revelations to come Sunday — albeit delayed "another day or two" — after outing President Joe Biden's administration for directing political censorship operations at Twitter.

    There are "more smoking guns" to reveal, Musk promised Saturday night on the Twitter Spaces audio platform.

    He also noted the ire he is bringing upon himself for exposing the political bias on the social media giant, preemptively saying, "I do not have any suicidal thoughts...

    …”We're just gonna put all the information out there try to get a clean slate we will be iteratively better and it will force other media companies to also be more truthful or else they'll lose their readership," Musk told a live Twitter Space Question and Answer session, watched by tens of thousands of users, the New York Post reported.

    Musk said he is not getting into the minutiae of the Twitter files, leaving it to journalists he entrusted with the reporting on it, Matt Taibbi and Bari Weiss.

    But Musk noted there has been "a very different standard applied to Republican candidates in the U.S. versus a Democrat candidates" in a U.S. election meddling campaign….

    What we have long known or at least suspected has now been proven true. In fact, it’s actually far worse than our worst fears come true. Thank God for Elon Musk.

    The double standards in the mainstream news media and big tech social media in their dealings with democrats compared to Republicans is duly noted and documented

    I am looking forward to Truth Social, Parler, Fox News, Newsmax, Breitbart etc. applying the same standard to Republicans and Democrats.

    I found it weird that the MSM folks were so silent over the weekend. It's like they feel if they ignore it, the message won't get out. So, isn't this really the proof of their own willingness to censor news to protect themselves given their collisional and likely criminal behavior here?

    I will be waiting for Elon's revelations just like I was a few days ago.

    I think a few years back he was saying he would have people on Mars a few years from now, or that the TESLA would be fully autopilot by 2018, so i've learned to take Elon's hype with a grain of salt.

    Are you suggesting they don't? Do you have any evidence or proof of your inference here?

    They didn’t conspire with the government and law enforcement to silence and censor the other side like the msm and big tech social media did.

    Oh, totally. Everyone knows that someone asking to take down a penis picture on Twitter is totally conspiring.

    What is most amazing about these revelations, aside from them being total nothingburgers, is the Trump White House did the same thing as the Biden campaign.

    Yet MAGA fans seem to gloss over that in favor of trying to support bad conspiracy theories.

    https://www.businessinsider.com/twi...-trump-white-house-biden-remove-posts-2022-12

    "Both parties had access to these tools. For instance, in 2020, requests from both the Trump White House and the Biden campaign were received and honored," he said, adding that "celebrities and unknowns alike could be removed or reviewed at the behest of a political party."

    Seems like democrats are a bit nervous about these revelations. Good thing Musk bought twitter or this would all be buried.

    Haha, Hannity had the Trump WH on speed dial. No, nothing to see there.

    This is MAGA. Screeching about Twitter. Pointing to nonexistent CRT. Yelling about Hunter's laptop.Outrage over drag queens.

    Yet nothing about how to go about the business of the country.

    MAGA is simply quixotic.

    The news that Baker was reviewing the “Twitter files” surprised everyone involved, to say the least. New Twitter chief Elon Musk acted quickly to “exit” Baker Tuesday. - M. Taibbi

    We can now tell you part of the reason why. On Tuesday, Twitter Deputy General Counsel (and former FBI General Counsel) Jim Baker was fired. Among the reasons? Vetting the first batch of “Twitter Files” – without knowledge of new management. - M. Taibbi

    Even now, Twitter is cleaning house and getting rid of people who are trying to cover up the corruption and the disinformation about the role they played in the 2020 election. Jim Baker has been fired after vetting files without the knowledge of Management. Maybe Twitter should sue Baker and maybe the DOJ will indict Baker for his role in working with government agents to lie and cover up the Hunter Biden laptop story.

    Lol, they're not going to do that. Just as CNN and CNBC won't.

    He's setting himself apart from the pack and trying to gain back public goodwill pissed away by his predecessors.

    I find it weird that government collusion to censor thoughts they don't agree with is not being called a threat to democracy by the left. Have you noticed how that phrase isn't being said now that the elections are over?

    Kinda like finding that illusive cure for cancer we all heard about. I don't think anyone has mentioned that since the 2020 campaign season ended.

    If Musk has visions of people on Mars or fully auto piloted cars, at least he's in the business of making rockets and cars that are somewhat automated.

    of course he has no proof, otherwise he would have posted it. The thing is he said it, and if other libs read it they'll believe every word of it until their dying day. It's called the CNN effect.

    how about a story by the NY Post pertaining to a laptop which was already in the news, well, maybe not CNN, but I'm talking about real news.
