The smoking gun here, is that both teams had a backchannel to report offending tweets for policy review..
So both Trump's and Biden's people had an extended version of the "report tweet" button that everyone gets.
That's it, that's the smoking gun, unless I'm missing something. It's hard to read Taibi talk so excitedly while saying so little

No, I read that, it's just devoid of relevant information.
Taibi is assuming that special favours were given to the left but if he really had found that in the documents, he would have shared that.
Instead he's showing employee donations out of their salary.
that Twitter donates nearly 100% to Democrats and gives them special attention.
No - you're wrong.
Look at the block of disclaimer text which Taibi cut off in his screenshot
https://www.opensecrets.org/orgs/twitter/summary?id=D000067113
It says
NOTE: Organizations themselves cannot contribute to candidates and party committees
Twitter is not giving money, those are employee who donate out of their salary.
The amount is 900k per year to dems.
That's roughly NINE high wealth employees maxing out their contribution. Or of courses it could be more than nine twitter employees giving less then their maximum. By the way - your front line trust and safety folks at twitter are on less than 50k per year and are unlikely to be donating much if anything. I know at my work, if you're not middle-managerial then you cannot participate in the pac.

Taibi and you are assuming without any evidence whatsoever
That this is a relevant chunk of twitter corp.
That this includes trust and safety decision makers.
That their choice in political donations affected their work.
That this has any bearing whatsoever on Biden and trump's backchannels.
I don't think you replied to me thinking that this was some silver bullet. I don't think you believed that 1-4 are totally true. I just think you're a troll. So stop trolling, troll

Why do you think Taibi trimmed his screenshot to hide that fact from you, if it doesn't change anything?
And how are you accounting for these four things?
That this is a relevant chunk of twitter corp's headcount.
That this includes any trust and safety decision makers.
That their choice in political donations affected their work or decision making.
That this has any bearing whatsoever on Biden and trump's backchannels, or any of the same staff were involved
