In addition to confirming more of the basic construct behind Jack’s Magic Coffee Shop, Twitter File Release #8 also reveals that Twitter officers are carefully curating information to protect their interests. When information is curated to protect political interests, it puts a question mark behind all prior releases.
In release #8, the basic outline is showing how the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) and U.S. State Department (DoS) work with the social media platforms to amplify messaging and create specifically anonymous government accounts intended to spread propaganda globally. [Twitter File Release #8 Here] The government then asks the platform engineering side to boost the messaging of the government accounts and use the internal tools to promote government users. Essentially, social media propaganda.
The United States intelligence apparatus was/is actively using and working with the Twitter platform to align with U.S. government interests. The govt was coordinating, instructing, assisting and benefitting from the relationship. Pro govt positions were amplified, and information adverse to the interests of the Pentagon and State Dept was removed, hidden, throttled.
Unfortunately, as admitted by Twitter File #8 Author Lee Fang, a writer for The intercept, “The searches were carried out by a Twitter attorney, so what I saw could be limited.” There is no ‘could be‘ in that statement. The searches were limited, specifically time limited putting all of the scrutiny on the timeline when Donald Trump was in office.
CTH has no vested interest in this pretending nonsense. We all know, hell, its public record, the use of Twitter and Facebook as a tool to advance U.S. foreign policy began during the Obama administration. There are dozens of mainstream press accounts of Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton reaching out to Twitter and Facebook for support during the ’11/’12 Arab Spring. This is not controversial, it happened.
However, the current release uses a carefully applied time filter only showing DoD and DoS use of the platform (to assist foreign policy) starting in 2017, when President Trump took office. This is intentional. The origin of the practice starts with Barack Obama.
Let me be very, very clear. This release of information was filtered to avoid revealing that President Obama was the originator of this activity.
Twitter is trying to protect President Obama because, beyond the ideological alignment, the monopolistic social media system – a partnership between the U.S. government and Big Tech, was essentially designed as a purposeful oligarchical system. As long as each platform Oligarch retains the code of omerta the system survives.
Within that design, if any one oligarch turns against the group interest, he/she becomes a target of the system. Remaining in alignment with the group is why Twitter lawyers carefully filtered out the trail to former President Barack Obama. The One is always protected.
Barack Obama established the partnership between government and social media, and within this release Twitter is protecting Barack Obama.
This release is so over-the-top-obvious in its intent to protect the Obama legacy, that the nature of the DoS/DoD admissions within it become almost secondary.
Twitter gave approval & special protection to the U.S. military’s online psychological influence ops. Despite knowledge that Pentagon propaganda accounts used covert identities, Twitter did not suspend many for around 2 years or more. Some remain active.
In 2017, a U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) official sent Twitter a list of 52 Arab language accounts “we use to amplify certain messages.” The official asked for priority service for six accounts, verification for one & “whitelist” abilities for the others.

The Obama administration first created the public-private partnership with Twitter and Facebook to support the “Arab Spring” uprising.
As a consequence, Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak was the first elected official to be taken out by former President Obama’s deployment of Twitter as a community activist tool for revolution in 2011. In direct and consequential ways, Egypt was the BETA test for a process that surface a decade later in the United States during the 2020 election.
Using and influencing social media was a tool created by the Obama state department, as noted years ago in Mic.Com:
[…] In countries like Egypt, Tunisia, and Yemen, rising action plans such as protests made up of thousands, have been organized through social media such Facebook and Twitter. “We use Facebook to schedule the protests” an Arab Spring activist from Egypt announced “and [we use] Twitter to coordinate, and YouTube to tell the world.” The role that technology has taken in allowing the distribution of public information such as the kinds stated by the aforementioned activist, had been essential in establishing the democratic movement that has helped guide abused civilians to overthrow their oppressor. (link)
(NationalPulse) The most popular Twitter hashtags in the Arab region in the first three months of this year were “Egypt”, “Jan25”, “Libya”, “Bahrain” and “protest”.
Nearly 9 in 10 Egyptians and Tunisians surveyed in March said they were using Facebook to organise protests or spread awareness about them. All but one of the protests called for on Facebook ended up coming to life on the streets.
These and other findings from the newly released second edition of the Arab Social Media Report by the Dubai School of Government give empirical heft to the conventional wisdom that Facebook and Twitter abetted if not enabled the historic region-wide uprisings of early 2011. (link)
Fast forward to 2020, and those same elements deployed against the Egyptian government were deployed in the United States in a coordinated public-private partnership with Twitter, Facebook and social media.
The U.S. government control over these social media platforms is ultimately what lies at the heart of the latest Twitter Files release.
And it goes much deeper… much more purposefully deeper.
The ideological interests behind the 2010/ ’11 “Arab Spring” uprising were the same ideological interests behind the 2020 “Black Lives Matter” protests/uprising. Not merely similar people, but the exact same people.
The exact same group of U.S. people who were promoting the mid-east Arab Spring in 2010/’11 are the same people who promoted the 2020 Black Lives Matter protests. The same politicians; the same media voices; the same newspapers; the same social media activists. Almost every participant, and their support for the uprising ’10 -vs- ’20 was identical, including the platforms deployed.
In the background of the Arab Spring, the root control organization was The Muslim Brotherhood. Considering all of the connective similarities and considering the U.S. advocates for the brotherhood were the same voices advocating for BLM; the BLM movement as an extension of the same overarching ideology becomes clear.
It is not an esoteric intellectual exercise to compare the two movements because we were not only talking about a similar level of protest, but we also saw an identical set of actions in both groups. Not only were the advocates the same voices, but the behavior also to remove and destroy common cultural connection/heritage was the same.
The Brotherhood is essentially the umbrella organization for a multitude of Islamic factions. In essence, the Muslim Brotherhood represents political Islam. Similarly, if you look at the structure of Black Lives Matter, they too represent an umbrella-type structure for a network of individual political grievance groups. Both groups represent a cultural revolution by the results of their activity.
In 2010 the Brotherhood had al-Qaeda and militant factions within ISIS. In 2020 BLM had the New Black Panthers and militant factions within Antifa.
In 2010 the Brotherhood tore down statues and symbols they identified as culturally oppressive to their political views. In 2020 BLM tore down statues and symbols they identified as oppressive to their political views.
In 2010 the Brotherhood burned books, destroyed history and removed their cultural opposition by force. In 2020 BLM promoted burning books, destroying history and cancelling their cultural opposition by force.
In 2010 the Brotherhood used social media to organize their political activity and Big Tech facilitated by setting up local networks for protest. In 2020 BLM used social media to organize their political media and Big Tech facilitated by deploying all local networks to assist.
In 2010 the Brotherhood attacked the police and framed their Islamist movement as oppressed by law enforcement. In 2020 BLM attacked the police and framed their movement as oppressed by law enforcement.
In 2010 the Brotherhood destroyed the notions of secularism and viciously attacked any form of Christianity, including burning churches. In 2020 BLM advocated against secularism and viciously attacked Christianity – including the burning of churches, while conspicuously never criticizing any element of Islam.
In 2010 the Brotherhood was very strategic as they hoodwinked moderate Islamic supporters into voting them into power. Once in power they removed all of the institutional systems, government offices, judges, constitutional balances, local elections, and anything that would impede their ultimate stranglehold on power. Sharia Law replaced common legislative law. As a result, the ordinary population was brutalized, property was taken by force; businesses were taken by force and the Islamic regime now controlled every element of their lives.
In 2020 the approach of the BLM movement appeared very strategic as they also hoodwinked a multitude of supporters, voters and even corporations, by defining their victim class and role. Donations to the BLM group funded Joe Biden. Much like the 2010 Brotherhood approach, grievances were made personal. Bonds between families and friends are severed by force and demands to adhere to the movement’s ideology. Now look at the severity of what policies are being advanced.
In 2010, despite the visibility of the radical elements of Islam, Egyptian candidate Mohammed Morsi ran on a platform for change as a moderate. He was supported by Obama, Clinton and the social media messaging deployed by the U.S. government. Once he achieved victory Morsi governed as a hardline leftist.
In 2020, despite the visibility of the radical leftists (BLM, Antifa), U.S. candidate Joe Biden ran on a platform for change as a moderate. He was supported by Obama, James Clyburn and the social media messaging deployed by the U.S. government. Once he achieved victory Biden governed as a hardline leftist.
These strategic political similarities are not coincidental.
As you can see from above, the use of social media had both an international and domestic value as considered by those in the Obama sphere who constructed the partnership with government. Twitter’s curation of the timeline is intended to hide this ‘Bigger Picture.’
Any chance the countries will file charges against Twitter execs and put out interpol warrants for arrest?
I just saw where Elon appointed DJT Jr. as CEO of Twitter! Anyone else see this?
Sorry probably fake news. Would be nice though.
That would be a dumb move. Don’t trust any of his kids. Elon could appoint one of his kids. Probably would do a better job than the previous bunch.
Every sob who has participated should be held to account!!!!
Every penny spent on investigations and court costs due to the fake allegations/ scams
should be repaid to the USA and all victims; especially President Donald J Trump.
That’s PRESIDENT Donald J Trump!
We ALL know President Trump IS the legitimate President who was cheated out of the 2020 election and we lost thanks to mike pence, the biggest traitor in the history of this country.
Wish this was on the front page of the New York Times.
That picture with Obama says it all.
We’re so screwed as this despotic regime of criminals abuses every lever and branch of power, big corporate, academia and media to attack our country, we the people and the rightfully elected, still-sitting President, Donald J. Trump. It’s treasonous beyond anything imaginable. Shame on our country, beat into submission by an unelected, crooked cabal of rats.
Yes, our federal government has become ILLEGITIIMATE. It NO LONGER SERVES the PEOPLE or the WORLD with anything that is moral or virtuous. It only serves itself, especially the military industrial and intelligence industries. Thanks to Trump and Musk they have been FORCED out of the SHADOWS so everyone can see their CORRUPTION and LARGESSE.
Now the question is what can be done to rid America of this no longer a SHADOW government. They’ve already assassinated one president and removed two others from office with their FRAUD and CORRUPTION. They are the true enemies of the Constitution.
Don’t worry, folks; luckily, the MSM is all over this. Sharing it far and wide….
Oh, nevermind, foolish me. That was the Jan 6th sham committee talking points and how the border is secured, and any mention contrary is dangerous and misinformation pushed by cartels.
Sorry, but one can quickly see how I mixed up the two.
Talk about a damn clown world.
The sad part is – all of us have internalize this for years — but even now, no more than 10% of the rest of the masses will…
Happen to agree….but I’m just one old lady, and have not power to help. Just want to let you know, that there is at least one more of us.
You can help. A lot — if thousands to millions of us would.
You are online — so you can Tweet + Facebook Message + Send Emails + Send Snail Mail… And even just a $5 donation a week to a different Worthy Org would cause a positive tsunami of funds to those doing the daily hard work —– if more + more + more of us did it.
—- What they now call Color Revolutions + Arab Springs are Regime Change Operations that have been carried out for a long time…
It does not mean Armed Revolution + does not at times in end in bloodshed.
In its basic but effective form — it is just — Everyday People putting together their Collective Strength but all of them doing at least 1 or 2 Useful Things each day.
We mock the Leftists for being Activists on TikTok + Twitter + Facebook ——– but look what % of people in the West think today that — Males can get Pregnant….
Truth defeats Lies in the end ———- if everyone is Speaking Truth to Power…..
You + every one of us can add up to making a paradigm shifting difference…
If you are a Christian – you know – Radio Ministries have survived many decades primarily by —– small $ donations by regular listeners on a regular basis.
Thru the Bible is still flourishing — updating to new languages + dialects every year + moving into video in many countries + sending out solar panel powered collections of the 5-year series + anything new they can come up with….
J Vernon McGee died in the late-1980s…
I meant 10% of the other side… Those dedicated to the Left are lost.
I didn’t believe Yuri Bezmenov on that point — but now do…
What does Musk say about this??????
Church Committee
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Church_Committee
The Church Committee (formally the United States Senate Select Committee to Study Governmental Operations with Respect to Intelligence Activities) was a US Senate select committee in 1975 that investigated abuses by the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA), National Security Agency (NSA), Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), and the Internal Revenue Service (IRS). Chaired by Idaho Senator Frank Church (D-ID), the committee was part of a series of investigations into intelligence abuses in 1975, dubbed the “Year of Intelligence”, including its House counterpart, the Pike Committee, and the presidential Rockefeller Commission. The committee’s efforts led to the establishment of the permanent US Senate Select Committee on Intelligence.
The most shocking revelations of the committee include Operation MKULTRA involving the drugging and torture of unwitting US citizens as part of human experimentation on mind control; COINTELPRO involving the surveillance and infiltration of American political and civil-rights organizations; Family Jewels, a CIA program to covertly assassinate foreign leaders; Operation Mockingbird as a systematic propaganda campaign with domestic and foreign journalists operating as CIA assets and dozens of US news organizations providing cover for CIA activity.
It also unearthed Project SHAMROCK in which the major telecommunications companies shared their traffic with the NSA (while officially confirming the existence of this signals intelligence agency to the public for the first time).
Senator Frank Church 1975 – “If This Government Ever Became A Tyranny”
Maybe the next House Ways and Means Committee can vote to acquire and release Bronco Bama’s taxes and find out how he went from a cheap renter in Chicago to a multi millionaire home owner in 8 short years of government service?
And Pelosi’s.
Don’t look now, but all this domestic political abuse and lawlessness is about to put America and much of the world on edge as the Biden WH and McConnell and his collaborators effectively motivate Russia to accelerate the rollout and deployment of the new ICBM Sarmat (Satan2) and the Zircon hypersonic, both of which are spec’d to be unstoppable. It gets worse as the NeoCons and DoS want to stage a ‘red flag’ so that one of these monster weapons gets lit! Stolen elections have very real consequences!
And Christmas Day/Sunday would be the perfect launch day since their hatred of God tops their list. During a blizzard on Christmas Day is a Soros dream come true.
The Ukraine Conman just landed in Washington, DC onboard Air Force Two.
Noisy pipsqueak wouldn’t have done this with President Trump in office.
Wow. That picture does have some depth to it and some possible interpretation, doesn’t it? Facial and body language— and quite a change of wardrobe, too.
Shame on United States military officers for obeying orders from this organized crime syndicate in Washington DC.
The U.S. military could put an immediate halt to these unconstitutional and lawless crimes if current U.S. military officers took seriously their allegiance to the U.S. Constitution .
The corrupt and traitorous FBI would quickly fold like a cheap suit in the face of a serious U.S. military intervention to save the Republic.
“…I will defend against all enemies, foreign and DOMESTIC?”
Are these now meaningless words in the oath sworn by America’s military officers?
Is this the shameful legacy of our fathers’ and grandfathers’ sacrifices?
The so-called “Justice Department” is thoroughly corrupt. Judges are mostly cowards. We cannot look to these criminals to save the U.S. Constitution and the nation.
We no longer even have elections we the people can trust.
There is obviously no Republic left to save if the nation’s patriots choose to do nothing to stop this widespread treason against our constitution and laws.
These government tentacles are far reaching.
FBI paying Twitter for info not tied to a criminal investigation is off the rails.
How many times are we finding FBI paying for info/informants they have no right to obtain?
And then there’s the folks who shepherded Jan 6 protestors into the Capitol….and never charged?
“.. if any one oligarch turns against the group interest, he/she becomes a target of the system.”
This is how the Mafia rules! Is this the “transformation” Obama spoke of and what got the interest of many from his hidden and locked away university thesis?
It summarizes how Washington DC and institutions seem to work now; like the Mafia! But the “head” is not POTUS!
If any one judge, bureaucrat, politician or general turns against the group interest, he/she becomes a target of the system.
Also explains the obscenely Un-American treatment of the J6 prisoners, Donald Trump, Gen Flynn, and many others.
It’s time for a Convention of States.
Obama is such a worm.
Death to traitors like Obama and the rest of his ilk. You’ll reap what you sow,you pig’s.
Our downfall began with the degenerate Obama . An atheist , homosexual , communist. The Trump election was a fluke. A miscalculation of the filthy criminal democrat globalist. Now , under the thumb of an senile gangster pedophile , we the people wander our increasingly desolate nation. Leaderless and without a national direction. Absorbed with media, drugs, and porn. Not noticing that our nation has been invaded and overrun with third and forth world barbarism.
if ever a George Washington or better yet a George Patton was needed , they are needed now. God help us.
