Best take on this. Last sentence provides some lulz.

In short, the Biden team requesting that Hunter Biden dick pics be removed from Twitter, and Twitter complying, as they complied with requests from the Trump team(which represented the president) to remove content, is a non-story.

And, the contrarian substacker himself says that there's no evidence the government was involved in Twitter's censoring the Hunter Biden laptop story.

So I'm looking at a well-done nothingburger here.

I hope Grimes fires back by posting Elon's dick.

I think this non-revelation is up there with Maddow "having" Trump's tax returns.

Why didn't Musk give the contrarian substacker any emails related to Trump's campaign or administration requesting Twitter take down content, or did the substacker just not release them? He acknowledged Trump's people requested such things and Twitter took action.

Is it possible Musk and the substacker have some sort of bias in favor of Trump and against Democrats?

This is the guy polling highest in the Republican primary.

But sure, Liz Cheney and Mitt Romney are what's wrong with the Republican party. Lol.

Yes, the author of "Insane Clown President" and the oligarch currently feuding with Trump are both big Trump supporters. This is your brain on polarization.

The contrarian substacker is a prominent anti-anti-Trump left-winger(that book was written in 2016), and Elon Musk let Trump back on Twitter, endorsed Republicans in the 2022 midterm, and seems to parrot Trumpist right-wing nonsense. He's posted numerous right-wing conspiracy theories since he took over Twitter. At the very least they are two men who are vehemently against Democrats and sympathetic or overtly supportive of Republicans. And in the age of Doug Mastriano and Kari Lake, endorsing Republicans in 2022 with no caveat is basically a pro-Trump endorsement.
