Episode notes

CNN's John Sutter looks at how the Twitter files have been received. Are people thrilled that this information has been released to the public or are they furious? I think what we see ends up being a kind of war shock test for your political beliefs, he says. Even though there isn't clear proof that Joe Biden was forcing Twitter to take down Trump, this is enough. There's like enough smoke there that we see conservative sort of claiming there's fire.

Maybe not, but you’re going to be hearing about them for a while anyway. Republicans are saying they’ll use them to investigate the Biden administration.

This episode was produced by Amanda Lewellyn and Victoria Chamberlain, edited by Matt Collette, fact-checked by Laura Bullard, engineered by Paul Robert Mounsey, and hosted by Noel King.
