Elon Musk Claims ‘More Smoking Guns’ Are on the Way From Twitter

New Twitter CEO Elon Musk said that there will be “more smoking guns” after he and a journalist released “The Twitter Files” late last week that revealed how Twitter’s previous management censored a New York Post article about Hunter Biden before the 2020 election.

“We’re just [going to] 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 said Saturday during a Twitter Spaces event. There was, he added, “a very different standard applied to Republican candidates in the U.S. versus Democrat candidates” by the company’s management before he bought it two months ago.

Musk said he believes there are “more smoking guns” from Twitter that he wants to reveal. He did not elaborate.

“It’s frankly the behavior that is to be expected from an organization that is based in San Francisco which is far left,” Musk said in the Twitter Spaces event, according to media outlets over the past weekend.

Musk appeared to have provided the internal files to journalist Matt Taibbi, who released them Friday night, and former New York Times journalist Bari Weiss. Both operate Substack pages.

In a lengthy Twitter thread, Taibbi posted screenshots of internal conversations amongst Twitter employees that indicated certain posts were flagged for removal by members of the Democrat National Committee and then-candidate Joe Biden’s campaign.

“More to review from the Biden team,” the employee said, while another Twitter worker replied with “Handled these.”

Taibbi wrote that the move to censor the NY Post’s report, which included blocking sharing of the article in direct messages, was “made at the highest levels of the company, but without the knowledge of CEO Jack Dorsey, with former head of legal, policy and trust Vijaya Gadde playing a key role.”
