Former FBI Counsel Tries to Censor 'Twitter Files'

Former FBI Counsel Tries to Censor ‘Twitter Files’

December 7, 2022

Twitter deputy counsel Jim Baker was fired from the company yesterday for “vetting” Twitter’s files on Hunter Biden’s laptop before the information was passed on to journalists.

Baker used to be the Federal Bureau of Investigation’s general counsel. Unknown to Twitter ceo Elon Musk, he had been hiding information from the journalists Musk was working with. One of these journalists, Bari Weiss, said, “My jaw hit the floor,” when she discovered who was responsible for passing on the files.

While at the fbi, Baker was involved in fabricating conspiracy theories to target President Donald Trump.

Baker is a controversial figure. He has been something of a Zelig of FBI controversies dating back to 2016, from the Steele Dossier to the Alfa-Server mess. He resigned in 2018 after an investigation into leaks to the press.
