, D-Calif., after he accused the Twitter Files author of "gaslighting" Americans by tweeting emails detailing the Federal Bureau of Investigation's communication with the social media giant.

Taibbi's response comes after he released a new version of the Twitter Files, outlining Twitter's previous communication with "other government agencies."

Previously, Taibbi tweeted multiple internal files between Twitter workers and FBI employees as part of the sixth installment of the Twitter Files.
