Elon Musk’s single tweet reveals his next target and it’s huge. Learn about Elon dishing out the dirt on Anthony Fauci. More from Dave Rubin.
Now, we are learning the very dark and dangerous past of Yoel Roth, one of Twitter’s chief censors, who formerly served as the head of Twitter’s trust and safety team. What a strange position to hand over to a raving lunatic leftist who clearly had an axe to grind against conservatives, Republican politicians and, particularly, former President Donald Trump.
Musk over the weekend shared a few of Roth’s past tweets and what appear to be an excerpt from his PhD thesis about Grindr, the LGBTQ social media app.
Roth is quoted as saying that the app is possibly too “lewd or hook-up-oriented” for people under age 18, but that providers should “focus on creating safe strategies … for queer young adults” that aren’t just about hook-ups Said Musk, “Looks like Yoel is arguing in favor of children being able to use adult services in his PhD thesis.”
Fake news journalists squawked that Musk was putting Roth’s life in danger. Meanwhile, the University of Pennsylvania drew fire for blocking the Roth dissertation on the university’s website. More from The Quartering.
Here is the second installment of The Twitter Files, this time released by another journalist, Bari Weiss. We learn much more about the variety of tools that Twitter used to bury, censor or blackball those whose tweets fell outside the approved scope. Mainly, we’re talking about conservatives, although it remains to be seen worldwide who might have been the targets of such Leftist discrimination.
Weiss brings us highlights of some well-known cases, like Twitter’s persistent censorship of Chaya Raichik and her account @libsoftiktok, which was suspended six times. But we also learn about tools used to shadowban pesky accounts. These accounts could be placed on a “Trends Blacklist,” a “Search Blacklist” or a “Do Not Amplify” list.
What most of us term shadowbanning, Twitter termed “visibility filtering.” One senior twitter employee told Weiss, “Think of visibility filtering as a way for us to suppress what people see to different levels. It’s a very powerful tool.” More from Dobie_Tejas.
Bari Weiss releases the second batch of the Twitter Files, providing direct evidence of Twitter’s massive censorship operation. Prior to Elon’s purchase, Jack Dorsey and Vijaya Gadde assured America this was not happening. Christopher Wray warns about another influence operation, TikTok.
In part III, we learn about the censorship and removal of Donald Trump from Twitter. New details forthcoming Saturday and Sunday, so stay tuned.

Elon Musk promised to return free speech and transparency to Twitter and said he was releasing internal documents related to Hunter Biden’s laptop. But then the company’s top lawyer— ex-FBI general counsel James Baker — was found hiding, and maybe destroying, key pieces of evidence implicating Twitter, the FBI, and perhaps the Bidens, too.
In this jaw-dropping new episode of Over The Target Live, Lee Smith speaks with Miranda Devine, author of the bestselling book, Laptop from Hell: Hunter Biden, Big Tech, and the Dirty Secrets the President Tried to Hide, about the future of free speech. More from The Epoch Times.
U.S. Rep. James Comer, R-Kentucky, vows to subpoena three Twitter employees when he convenes the U.S. House Committee on Oversight and Reform in January. Comer will take over as chairman of the committee now that Republicans have won the U.S. House.
“They will testify,” says Comer, speaking of the trio of Twitter employees who collectively made the decision to ban most tweets that mentioned the Hunter Biden laptop story ahead of the 2020 general election.
The censors, who collectively hid the news to try to ensure a Biden victory, included James Baker. He’s the former counsel for the FBI, where he also was involved in crafting and publicizing the phony Russian collusion charges against former President Donald Trump. He later joined Twitter as its Deputy General Counsel, although he lost his job Tuesday. As Elon Musk put it, “In light of concerns about Baker’s possible role in suppression of information important to the public dialogue, he was exited from Twitter today.”
Baker will share the House witness stand with Yoel Roth, Twitter’s former head of site security, and Vijaya Gadde, Twitter’s ex-chief of legal affairs. Will be interesting to hear their excuses, or see whether they just plead the fifth! Here, Comer appears on Fox News with Sean Hannity.
