The FBI won’t name other social media companies it pays
By Cindy Harper | Reclaim The Net | December 25, 2022
The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) has refused to indicate the exact social networks it has paid. This follows recent revelations verifying that the bureau paid Twitter at least $3.5 million.
Representatives for the FBI already spoke to Fox News and said that the substantial Twitter payment was a “reimbursement” for expenses and costs of its requests. The representatives indicated that the payment was to compensate the social media platform for acting in accordance with legal “requests.”
The FBI stated that the group had compensated social media platforms beyond Twitter as well. The news network requested the names of other companies that the FBI had paid for these purposes. The federal agency, however, was not willing to provide further information regarding the matter. The representatives did say, though, that the FBI has to offer reimbursement for any and all reasonable expenses that tie in with the acquisition of information that is essential for legal processes.
“While we are not able to speak to specific payments, the government is required to provide reimbursement for reasonable expenses directly related to searching for, assembling, reproducing, or otherwise providing the information responsive to the legal process. This requirement is set by federal law and the courts are the final arbiters of what is reasonable compensation,” the FBI officials said.

It looks like out “unelected rulers” are using our tax dollars in every possible way to spy on American citizens illegally and we are sitting down and taking it without mu8ch of a whimper. Where did the FBI and all those other agencies and NGOs get their authority to reach that deep into our pockets and that far into their power grab? If all this does not stink like totalitarianism, people are beyond reach by any logic at all and have earned their slavery.

The FBI, CIA, MSM, etc are all part of America’s Ruling Elite, who look after America’s Rulers.
Americans are famous for mocking National Health Care systems in other countries, because it
is “Socialism” which they have been trained to think of as ‘Communism’. All the other countries that have national health care systems think that “NATIONAL HEALTH CARE” is wonderful.
Americans have been trained to Care more for their rulers than for themselves. From the outside looking in, it is weird.
WAKE UP, AMERICA. You’re getting screwed, by your OWNERS. They only have contempt for YOU.

Very true! A couple of years ago I received dental care in Athens, Greece at a cost of about $2,700 in total. This same care was quoted to me in the Seattle area and by two different dental offices at $8,000 to $12,000. That is robbery, and merely represents the general attitude of the Healthcare industry in America.

The American people have been “Duped” into believing that National Health Care is “FREE” and therefore “Socialism”(Which it isn’t) because, Americans TAXES will pay for it. (Not Americans who have access to TAX EVASION).
