Substack writer Matt Taibbi added a "supplemental" thread on Sunday to his latest "Twitter Files" drop on FBI connections with the social media site.

After revealing on Friday that members of Twitter had near constant communication with FBI agents from 2020 to 2022, Taibbi detailed an additional conflict between the federal agency and the social media company when the FBI appeared displeased with Twitter’s responses.

"In July of 2020, San Francisco FBI agent Elvis Chan tells Twitter executive Yoel Roth to expect written questions from the Foreign Influence Task Force (FITF), the inter-agency group that deals with cyber threats," Taibbi tweeted.

He continued, "The questionnaire authors seem displeased with Twitter for implying, in a July 20th ‘DHS/ODNI/FBI/Industry briefing,’ that ‘you indicated you had not observed much recent activity from official propaganda actors on your platform.’"

Although Taibbi noted that "one would think" that report from Twitter would be "good news," FBI agents appeared to "feel otherwise." He emphasized that Chan remarked that discussions within the United States Intelligence Community pushed for "clarifications" withing Twitter on its propaganda monitoring, often using mainstream media articles as sources.

"The task force demanded to know how Twitter came to its unpopular conclusion. Oddly, it included a bibliography of public sources - including a Wall Street Journal article - attesting to the prevalence of foreign threats, as if to show Twitter they got it wrong," Taibbi explained. "Roth, receiving the questions, circulated them with other company executives, and complained that he was ‘frankly perplexed by the requests here, which seem more like something we'd get from a congressional committee than the Bureau.’"

Taibbi revealed that Roth was not "comfortable with the Bureau (and by extension the IC) demanding written answers" and sent out an internal note adding that he believed the FBI’s questions on the subject were "flawed."

In an expanded article on the subject, Taibbi wrote that the questions included, "In what ways and by what measures do you see official propaganda actors as less active than other groups on your platform?"; "What groups are you comparing to official propaganda actors?" and "What quantitative metrics do you use to judge volume of activity on your platform? On what scale? Can you provide these metrics?"

Despite not agreeing with the line of questioning, Roth suggested afterwards that they "get on the phone with Elvis ASAP and try to straighten this out" to disabuse the agencies of any notion that state propaganda is not a "‘thing’ on Twitter."

The most recent "Twitter Files" revealed that as many as 80 FBI agents were assigned to monitor foreign interference on social media following the 2016 presidential election. Taibbi’s new thread also responded to the FBI’s comments on the revelations from Friday.

"The FBI responded to Friday’s report by saying it ‘regularly engages with private sector entities to provide information specific to identified foreign malign influence actors’ subversive, undeclared, covert, or criminal activities,’" Taibbi wrote. "That may be true, but we haven’t seen that in the documents to date. Instead, we’ve mostly seen requests for moderation involving low-follower accounts belonging to ordinary Americans – and Billy Baldwin."

Taibbi particularly highlighted the FBI’s reliance on mainstream media sources over Twitter’s own resources to target "foreign influence" on social media.

"If one didn’t know any better, one would conclude from this passage that the foreign-influence assertion at least in this case was being daisy-chained into existence: public sources cite anonymous official sources, then official sources cite the public sources in their communications with platforms like Twitter. An information loop, pooh-poohing any implication that foreign influence is not a threat, or at least a recent threat," Taibbi wrote in a subsequent Substack post about the Twitter thread.

The Substack writer concluded his Twitter thread promoting more Twitter Files drops from him, Bari Weiss and Michael Shellenberger in the near future.

We have a late candidate for interception of the year in the National Football League, and probably the winner.

The box score will tell you Tennessee Titans' Joshua Kalu intercepted Justin Herbert with around 10 seconds left in the first half, but it was much better than it sounds.

On 2nd-and-10 at the Titans' 25-yard line, Herbert was looking left and deep for Mike Williams to try to give the Chargers a touchdown lead entering the locker room. The ball was sailing out of bounds, though, so Williams had basically no play.

However, Roger McCreary took the leap out of bounds and caught it, but his body was way out of bounds, so at the moment, it was just an incomplete pass. That's when McCreary made the point-blank decision to toss it to his left to a nearby Kalu, who tip-toed in the end zone for an interception and a touchback.

Had McCreary not threw it to Kalu, the Chargers would have likely kicked a field goal to take a 10-7 lead, but instead the Titans were able to take a knee and remain tied at halftime.

The Titans are looking to improve to 8-6 on the season and snap a three-game losing streak, while the Chargers (7-6) continue to fight for their playoff hopes. They entered the day as the eighth seed behind the New England Patriots, who also stand at 7-6.
