Senator Mark Warner, chairman of the Senate Intelligence Committee, revealed at a briefing during the RSA Conference that intelligence agencies, including the FBI, have resumed discussions with social media companies in preparation for the upcoming 2024 election.
Warner explained that the White House lawyers have been "too timid" into their interpretation of the Supreme Court case, and intelligence agencies have rolled back their communications with social media companies about disinformation over the last six months.
”There seemed to be a lot of sympathy that the government ought to have at least voluntary communications with [the companies],” Warner said, emphasizing that the Biden administration should call out foreign entities that are allegedly trying to interfere with the US election.
"In coordination with the Department of Justice, the FBI recently implemented procedures to facilitate sharing information about foreign malign influence with social media companies in a way that reinforces that private companies are free to decide on their own whether and how to take action on that information."
Interesting that the FBI only becomes worried about disinformation on social media when it looks like Trump might win another term as President.

Trust me, they are already on it. If it weren't for the fake news and media, as well as the collusion between big tech and the government, their charade would have been done with a long time ago.
If we had any “representatives” in the house, they would stop the funding of these organizations for unconstitutional activities
@ExcitedParrotSocialist2wks2W
I have serious doubts that they ever stopped; they don't need permission; they just do whatever they want, and they should get a brand new building for spying on Trump and us. Why not?
@GrasshopperGaryPatriot2wks2W
You mean they keep continuing what they have been doing for years. Nothing new and shouldn’t be surprised to anyone.
