It was surprising to me to see that the various political parties are in direct contact with people at Twitter to remove stuff, and I consider myself fairly well informed.

- prawn 4y agoI've run a forum for almost 20 years. There are reporting tools that most people use, but regular reporters (either a contentious personality or just a regular and conscientious user) often just contact me directly after the email address was revealed previously. Seems completely obvious that media reps from every political party would have some direct line or priority tool to report things. They have this with newspapers and TV networks as well. They plead their case or make a legal threat, or appeal on personal grounds. As another "VIP contact" example, look at Musk supposedly directly contacting Kanye regarding his ban. The average user just sees a block screen. That seems fairly unremarkable to me.
