Social Media Coordination Between DOJ and FBI Is Not Limited to Twitter: Devin Nunes

The Epoch Times Header

The social media coordination between the Department of Justice (DOJ) and the FBI isnโ€™t limited to Twitter, former Congressman and current CEO of President Trumpโ€™s Truth Social, Devin Nunes, alleged in an interview that aired on Newsmakers by NTD and The Epoch Times on Dec. 14.

The Twitter Files, a collection of internal emails and communications made public by Twitterโ€™s new owner, Elon Musk, confirmed what many Conservatives have alleged for years. Namely, Twitter was shadow-banning accounts that didnโ€™t fit a specific ideology and suspending accounts that bucked the chosen political narrative, Nunes claimed.

But, the most concerning revelation in the Twitter Files, according to Nunes, is that the DOJ and the FBI had informantsโ€”whether paid or volunteersโ€”that put forward a specific directive to Twitter, and that is likely happening on other social media platforms.

โ€œThe coordination that the Department of Justice and the FBI clearly had with Twitter? I donโ€™t think it stops there,โ€ Nunes stated.

โ€œIt seems like they were either running informants, or had paid informants, or had volunteers, where they were actively sending information on behalf of the government on who to look into, or who to ban, and that sort of thing.

โ€œThe bigger issue is, Twitter is one thing, but what about Facebook? What about Instagram?โ€

Censorship and Shadow-Banning

According to Nunes, Trump developed Truth Social because, before Musk bought Twitter, Trump recognized that there was absolute control over public discourse in the United States.

Furthermore, that control led to shadow banning and suspending social media accounts, so those accounts couldnโ€™t criticize the controlling regime in the proverbial public square.

And while Nunes further stated that heโ€™d recently discussed the Twitter File drops with Trumpโ€”and in general, Trump is glad Musk purchased Twitterโ€”Trump still believes Musk needs to release all of the Twitter Files to the public and not go through cherry-picked journalists.
