Twitter Files reveal how federal censors made mail-in ballots sacred — boosting Biden
NY Post ^ | December 12, 2022 | By James Bovard

Elon Musk’s Twitter Truth Squad is exposing the FBI’s role in suppressing free speech before the 2020 election. But the FBI was practically a bit player in a far greater federal conspiracy to censor any American who cast doubts on the mail-in ballots that made Joe Biden the 46th president.

That conniving doesn’t mean the 2020 election was stolen. But the bureaucratic racketeering was a travesty of political fair play.

The FBI pressured Twitter to target an Oct. 26, 2020, tweet from a former Republican official who wrote that “between 2% and 25% of Ballots by Mail are Being Rejected for Errors,” journalist Matt Taibbi revealed.

But that tweet was more accurate than the “New Truths” federal overseers imposed. When New York City relied on mail-in ballots for a June 2020 primary, up to 20% of ballots were declared invalid. The Daily News labeled the primary snafus a “dumpster fire.”

Yet by Election Day 2020, mail-in ballots had become immaculate. This Orwellian triumph was due in part to “censorship by proxy,” as law professor Jonathan Turley put it.

The Cybersecurity Infrastructure Security Agency, created in 2018 as part of the Department of Homeland Security, gave grants to several private entities that formed the Election Integrity Project in mid-2020. That project, working closely with the feds, classified 22 million tweets as misinformation and affected “hundreds of millions of individual Facebook posts, YouTube videos, TikToks and tweets,” thanks to what it bragged of as “huge regulatory pressure” from government, per a Foundation for Freedom Online report last month.

Almost two-thirds of Biden’s votes came from absentee or mail-in ballots, and he won owing to 43,000 votes in three swing states. Democrats exploited the COVID pandemic to push through electoral changes that opened the floodgates to unverified mail-in ballots.

“censor any American who cast doubts on the mail-in ballots”

They got FReepers with this. And Hannity and Levin.

Rush rolling over in his grave.

Its a common sense drill. At this time, the truth is what we’re not allowed to say.

Let’s be honest, the FBI/DHS operatives, past and present, at Twitter are in your face Biden/IC, Inc. Commissars. Education, press, tech, labor, entertainment, they are everywhere, as pervasive as in the USSR.

You don’t launch a cover-up if there wasn’t a crime.

"safe and effective"

"free and fair"

"all lives matter is racist"

What a sick and twisted world in which we find ourselves.

It’s the only way the party could get their puppet in the WH and look at all the damage done in two years and the parasite invasion marches on.

Going to be a very busy 2023 to save 2024.
