WE WERE RIGHT! New Twitter Files Confirm There Was “Very Little” Russian Activity On Platform; Here’s What We Know…
On Monday, new batches of Twitter Files confirmed that there was actually not very much “Russian” propaganda on the website at all. In fact, one of the leaked emails showed that Twitter took down a whopping – wait for it – 345 accounts linked to Russia. Note, these accounts also had very low reach and low follower account.
Not quite the story we were told, was it?
15. Indeed, Twitter executives *repeatedly* reported very little Russian activity.
E.g., on Sept 24, 2020, Twitter told FBI it had removed 345 “largely inactive” accounts “linked to previous coordinated Russian hacking attempts.” They “had little reach & low follower accounts." pic.twitter.com/hy7hPahChS

Another leak from the Twitter files proved this point further:
14. Were the FBI warnings of a Russian hack-and-leak operation relating to Hunter Biden based on *any* new intel?
No, they weren't

Yet despite all of this, Yoel Roth was pressured to censor the story anyway:
12. And yet, during all of 2020, the FBI and other law enforcement agencies repeatedly primed Yoel Roth to dismiss reports of Hunter Biden’s laptop as a Russian “hack and leak” operation.
This is from a sworn declaration by Roth given in December 2020.https://t.co/IvTjyYw9iR pic.twitter.com/5iq2ATB3bW
