Those Twitter Files were released on December 19 in a lengthy thread by author Michael Shellenberger.
Part 6 of the files, which were broken down by journalist Matt Taibbi, revealed that "Twitter’s contact with the FBI was constant and pervasive as if it were a subsidiary."
"Between January 2020 and November 2022, there were over 150 emails between the FBI and former Twitter Trust and Safety chief Yoel Roth," he revealed.
A "surprisingly high number are requested by the FBI for Twitter to take action on election misinformation, even involving joke tweets from low-follower accounts."
Musk also said on Tuesday that he was in favor of seeing a new Church Commission, an idea put forward by investor David Sacks. The Church Committee of 1975 was a US Senate select committee that investigated abuses by the Central Intelligence Agency, National Security Agency, Federal Bureau of Investigation, and the Internal Revenue Service.
"We need a new Church Commission to investigate why the FBI and Intelligence Community are engaged in social media censorship, including the suppression of the Hunter Biden story," said Sacks, to which Musk replied, "hear, hear!!"
