Desperate Dems relentlessly pushed ‘Russiagate lies’ despite Twitter warnings, damning new files show

Another edition of the Twitter Files dropped Thursday courtesy of Matt Taibbi, revealing behind-the-scenes details regarding the “Russiagate” scandal that gripped former President Donald Trump’s administration.

Critics have long maintained that the “Russiagate” scandal was a hoax perpetrated by Democrats to discredit Trump, but it was unclear until now what, if any, role Twitter played in its propagation.

“At a crucial moment in a years-long furor, Democrats denounced a report about flaws in the Trump-Russia investigation, saying it was boosted by Russian ‘bots’ and ‘trolls,'” Taibbi explained.

“Twitter officials were aghast, finding no evidence of Russian influence: ‘We are feeding congressional trolls.’ ‘Not any…significant activity connected to Russia.’ ‘Putting the cart before the horse assuming this is propaganda/bots,'” he continued.

Critics of the platform may be shocked to find that Twitter was very hesitant to pursue the Democrat line of thinking, unable to come up with verifiable evidence.

“On January 18th, 2018, Republican Devin Nunes submitted a classified memo to the House Intel Committee detailing abuses by the FBI in obtaining FISA surveillance authority against Trump-connected figures, including the crucial role played by the infamous ‘Steele Dossier’,” Taibbi continued.

“The Nunes assertions would virtually all be verified in a report by Justice Department Inspector General Michael Horowitz in December 2019,” he wrote.

However, these facts would continue to be contradicted by left-leaning media outlets.

“On January 23rd, 2018, Senator Dianne Feinstein (D-CA) and congressman Adam Schiff (D-CA) published an open letter saying the hashtag ‘gained the immediate attention and assistance of social media accounts linked to Russian influence operations,'” the tweet thread continues.

“Connecticut Senator Richard Blumenthal followed suit, publishing a letter saying, ‘We find it reprehensible that Russian agents have so eagerly manipulated innocent Americans,'” Taibbi added.

Taibbi included additional, shocking information in subsequent tweets:
