These Twitter Files are great, but let’s make one thing clear

Not a thing will be done by the GOP. They’ll get on TV with Hannity to proclaim their outrage, maybe even put together an investigative committee, but nothing will ultimately be done.

What should they do? Propose legislation when they only control one house of Congress once January gets here?

McConnell and McCarthy can't get a DC cop to acknowledge their existence.

There’s only one person who is aggrieved enough to get buck nasty on their asses. And as it turns out, if we were to screw our heads on straight we could give him the juice to go at them like a crazed waubanshee. So I say let’s do this, who’s with me!?!? Only cool and wise people allowed though!!

Doing something about it isn't really their jobs. That would be a job for the DoJ, provided anything illegal was actually done.

To quote you from another thread, "you're fricking retarded."

The GOP will have hearings to get their base all fired up and then nothing will happen.

It will be up to Merrick Garland to file any charges and he won't do shite.

Did you ever consider that this entire sale of Twitter to Musk, and these ongoing The Twitter Chronicles is nothing more than an elaborate deception put on by the world's most brilliant and wealthy industrialist in full collaboration with all three letter agencies to once and for all dispel the notion that it was a coordinated, major internal undertaking by a massively corrupt government, and, in-fact, it now shows that it was only a handful, a mere few individual agents who acted rouge, going well outside the boundaries of their leadership's purview, and they acted with duplicity and malice o in their manipulation of the weak-minded leadership at Twitter?

No, Elon Musk isn't going to show us THAT! NOT the REAL story. Nooooooo, he's going to feed us this fable exactly as "they" want the history to be told moving forward into the future.

There has to be a scapegoat, and what better way to do it than to take this universally admired figure and have him tell you and everyone else, "Here's what really happened! Really!"

Everybody is lapping this up, right now. This is all happening by design, so when it all comes down to a couple of low level guys taking the fall, don't be too surprised.


Or......

This is the start of a very bad few days coming at us like a runaway freight train as Musk gets very close to naming some powerful people.

In that case, any of these are possible:

A). The FedGov shuts down Twitter and clamps down on all social media. An in-your-face leftist Totalitarian government is making a huge, unconstitutional power grab. In doing so, they kick off the start of a civil war.

B). Musk, Taibbi and Bari Weiss, one of those three are going to die. Soon. If that does not send the right message, a second one of those three or one of their family members will die in a way that insured death and inflicted great pain as well.

To maintain power, they just perform a little surgical assassination and right that ship right back up. These Twitter Files are not ever going to tell us the real story.

We know that they're lying.
They know that they're lying.
We know that they know that they're lying.
They know that we know that they are lying.

But they still lie to us.

History repeats itself.

Agreed. They will be out for sound bites and nothing more.

We should all pay attention to who is left in DC that is actually a fighter for what is right

Decided to stop by CNN.com and MSNBC.com to see what angle they were going to take on the twitter files that were released today. Not a single story on either about twitter. Lots of Trump stuff though.

I disagree.
When the House changes, they'll control the committees, thus the hearings. I'm not sure if it's possible to keep them out of the news cycle. Even the networks won't be able to sweep them under the rug....we'll see.

Republicans don't have activist groups pounding on them like Democrats do.

Well, with Hannity you don't get to proclaim anything. He proclaims for a long time and then the guest says 'You're right, Shawn' and then Hannity does more proclaiming.

In their minds, standing up to it would equal defending Trump.

Everything going on in DC now is still about moving on from Trump.

Use this lens and then silence makes sense.

They will not do anything that makes it look like a defense of Trump.

They are busy writing Trump indictment scripts.

Jim Jordan will get on tv and be all exasperated, then they’ll launch an “investigation” that will be weak with no teeth whatsoever. Same thing with the laptop. All this shite.

Nothing.

Meanwhile the democrats will impeach Trump again.
