EXCERPT:

TAIBBI: "Right, because that foreign influence task force only refers to the people in the FBI, DHS and the Director of National Intelligence Office. But actually, this includes people in a variety of agencies, both federal and state. We’ve seen requests from basically all 50 states, most of those go through DHS to Twitter. So, I would estimate that personnel somewhere between 500-1,000 people. That's just based on what we’ve seen so far. It may be more than that."
