A new trove of internal communications from Twitter suggests that the FBI maintained persistent contact with company employees in recent years, frequently proposing user bans, including for strident Trump critic and actor Billy Baldwin, and what appear to be satire accounts.

‘Twitter’s contact with the FBI was constant and pervasive, as if it were a subsidiary,’ argued journalist Matt Taibbi, who shared the documents in a Twitter thread on Friday afternoon.

FBI officials, meeting with Twitter executives, told them there was ‘no impediment’ to sharing classified information with them, according to an internal memo.

The files were the latest in a series of documents to be released after Twitter’s new owner Elon Musk gave a group of hand-picked journalists access to the company’s internal records.

‘Between January 2020 and November 2022, there were over 150 emails between the FBI and former Twitter Trust and Safety chief Yoel Roth,’ claimed Taibbi.

‘But a surprisingly high number are requests by the FBI for Twitter to take action on election misinformation, even involving joke tweets from low-follower accounts,’ he added.

On November 6, 2022, FBI Assistant Special Agent in Charge Elvis Chan forwarded Twitter staff a lengthy list of accounts for review, including Baldwin’s

In one email from November 6, 2022, FBI Assistant Special Agent in Charge Elvis Chan forwarded Twitter staff a lengthy list of accounts for review.

Chan wrote that the FBI believed the accounts were ‘violating [Twitter’s] terms of service by disseminating false information about the time, place or manner of the upcoming elections.’

The list of accounts had been sent to Chan by the FBI’s National Election Command Post, which compiles and forwards complaints, indicating that the list may have been based on community tips submitted to the FBI.

The list included Baldwin, the brother of actors Alec and Stephen Baldwin, as well as what appear to be several satire accounts and the right-wing news and commentary outlet Right Side Broadcasting Network.

A Twitter employee responded to Chan on the morning of November 8, indicating which accounts had been suspended.

Baldwin’s account was not suspended in the action, and Twitter also spared several other accounts that the FBI had named, including RSB Network.

That email exchange took place after Elon Musk took control of Twitter in late October.

It’s unclear what Baldwin tweeted that landed him on the FBI list.

The actor is an outspoken liberal and frequent critic of Donald Trump, so the incident does little to bolster the central allegation of the so-called ‘Twitter files’ releases, namely that Twitter covertly suppressed conservative voices.

However, it does illustrate the close relationship FBI agents forged with Twitter employees, and raises questions how and why the bureau sought bans against individual Twitter users.

On September 16, 2020, Stacia Cardille, Twitter’s director and associate general counsel for the company’s global policy legal team, wrote a memo to her boss, Jim Baker, Twitter’s deputy general counsel.

She summarized a monthly 90-minute meeting she had had with representatives of the FBI, Justice Department, Department of Homeland Security, and Office of the Director of National Intelligence to discuss election threats.

Cardille told Baker the meeting would soon become weekly.

In her memo, she writes: ‘I explicitly asked if there were any impediments with the ability of the government to share classified information or other relevant information with industry.

‘FBI was adamant that no impediments to information sharing exist.’
