Recently Taibbi said that the reason they haven't mentioned any suppressed leftist accounts is that they haven't found any so far. (in conversation with Russell Brand)
I don't think Taibbi's seen the files Baker hid the deepest. I'm still soft blocked (can't log back in without a ph#), and if anyone can find the tweet I did calling out Mook as a liar when he first pointed fingers at Russia the Saturday before the 2016 DNC convention, I'd appreciate the link.
The online Left was handled differently in part, I think, because many of us were former/current bloggers and had a much deeper understanding of what our numbers should look like and were subjected to different suppression strategies.
Nice find but the one I'd like to see is from the last Saturday in July, 2016.
I do remember that exchange with the former Mpls mayor. I was very aggressive about pushing back on Russiagate, not that hardly anyone ever saw my links or tweets even when I engaged with bluecheck elites.

I found two, Mark. The earliest is April 2017.
