His top priority? Firing four of the company\u2019s top executives: CEO Parag Agrawal, CFO Ned Segal, legal and safety executive Vijaya Gadde, and General Counsel Sean Edgett. <\/p>\n<p>By the gnashing of teeth and wailing from Twitter employees, corporate media mouthpieces, and other leftist elites who are quick to defend Big Tech censors, a stranger might think these Twitter heads were unjustly ousted. In reality, Agrawal, Segal, Gadde, and Edgett got what should have come to them two years ago when they knowingly interfered with the 2020 election to help install Joe Biden in the White House.<\/p>\n<p>Twitter <a href=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/2021\/03\/25\/dorsey-says-blocking-posts-hunter-biden-story-was-total-mistake\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">doesn\u2019t like to admit <\/a>who on its staff is ultimately responsible for the suppression of information that makes ruling elites and Democrats look bad, especially ahead of key elections, but it was under the now-fired leadership\u2019s watch that Twitter banned and censored <a href=\"https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2022\/06\/14\/twitter-repeatedly-claims-error-to-disguise-deliberate-censorship-of-conservatives\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">conservatives<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2022\/10\/10\/read-the-florida-surgeon-generals-tweet-about-mens-post-covid-vaxx-death-risk-twitter-tried-to-hide\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Covid-19 jab skeptics<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2022\/10\/06\/twitter-ramps-up-election-meddling-ahead-of-midterms-with-fake-fact-checking-program-expansion\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">election-integrity supporters<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2022\/03\/23\/twitter-is-censoring-federalist-reporting-as-violent-content\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">legitimate reporting<\/a>, and <a href=\"https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2022\/03\/30\/twitter-locked-my-account-for-telling-the-truth-about-rachel-levine\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">those who told the truth about the sexes<\/a>. <\/p>\n<p>Oftentimes, Twitter executed this censorship with undeniable arrogance and no remorse. That\u2019s why when Agrawal openly <a href=\"https:\/\/www.technologyreview.com\/2020\/11\/18\/1012066\/emtech-stage-twitters-cto-on-misinformation\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">admitted<\/a>\u00a0that he believed Twitter\u2019s \u201crole is not to be bound by the First Amendment, but our role is to serve a healthy public conversation,\u201d he wasn\u2019t chided for contradicting the social media company\u2019s supposed commitment to advancing free speech. Instead, he was rewarded with a short-lived spot as CEO and <a href=\"https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2021\/11\/29\/twitter-ceo-jack-dorsey-steps-down-makes-way-for-new-censorship-king-parag-agrawal\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">congratulated<\/a> by Twitter founder Jack Dorsey for his \u201ctransformational\u201d work. Agrawal quickly used that power to <a href=\"https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2021\/11\/30\/12-reasons-twitters-new-privacy-policy-will-make-us-all-safer\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">usher in a new era of partisan crackdowns.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Gadde, who <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=OkQgTY5_cF0\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">handed down the decision<\/a> to ban the sitting president, wasn\u2019t criticized for unjustly removing the sitting president and world\u2019s biggest critic of Big Tech. Instead, her attempts to keep Trump and his campaign off of the internet <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonpost.com\/technology\/2021\/01\/16\/how-twitter-banned-trump\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">were hailed as heroic,<\/a> necessary, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.politico.com\/news\/magazine\/2020\/10\/28\/twitter-vijaya-gadde-free-speech-policies-technology-social-media-429221\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">moral<\/a>. <\/p>\n<p>Big Tech censors like Agrawal and Gadde don\u2019t deny that they manipulated the flow of information in the months leading up to the 2020 election. Instead, they wear their partisan censorship like a badge of pride. That\u2019s why Mark Zuckerberg <a href=\"https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2022\/08\/26\/confirmed-fbi-colluded-with-big-tech-to-prevent-voters-from-learning-about-hunter-bidens-laptop\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">had no problem publicly admitting<\/a> that Facebook was ready to censor whatever information necessary to preserve the elite establishment\u2019s desired outcome for the 2020 presidential race. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe FBI basically came to us and spoke to some folks on our team and was like, \u2018Hey, just so you know, you should be on high alert. We thought that there was a lot of Russian propaganda in the 2016 election. We have it on notice that basically there\u2019s about to be some kind of dump similar to that,\u2019\u201d Zuckerberg said.<\/p>\n<p>The biggest example of that online tampering came in October 2020, weeks before the election, when the New York Post published a series of reports containing<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Musk\u2019s Twitter firings are the first time any Big Tech censors have faced true accountability for their efforts to stop Trump&#8217;s re-election.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":490,"featured_media":1715057,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/cndimages.nyc3.digitaloceanspaces.com\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/IMG_2758-scaled-1.jpg","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[546],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1715054","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-the-federalist"],"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/cndimages.nyc3.digitaloceanspaces.com\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/IMG_2758-scaled-1.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1715054","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/490"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1715054"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1715054\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1715057"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1715054"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1715054"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1715054"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
