Twitter CEO Elon Musk said today that former Twitter deputy general counsel Jim Baker was fired for allegedly suppressing info “important to the public dialogue.”

on Tuesday that former Twitter deputy general counsel Jim Baker was fired. Taibbi said that one of the reasons Musk fired him was for “vetting the first batch of ‘Twitter Files’ without knowledge of new management,” which would presumably include Musk.

WASHINGTON, DC – MAY 19: Former FBI general counsel James A. Baker departs United States District Court for the District of Columbia following a full day of giving testimony on May 19, 2022 in Washington, DC. Taibbi explained that the process by which he and reporter Bari Weiss reported on the Twitter Files came from a lawyer close with Twitter’s new management; however, Weiss was shocked to find out that Baker was in charge of releasing the files.Taibbi explained that Baker is a controversial figure given his involvement with the Steele Dossier involving allegations of the 2016 Trump campaign allegedly colluding with the Russian government.

He wrote, “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.”Baker has been featured repeatedly in the Russian investigations launched by the Justice Department, including the hoax involving the Russian Alfa Bank.

Go Elon

He should have been arrested.

Well done! VW day! (victory world) Thank you Elon.

Hope someone backed that up before he deleted the juicy stuff

Elon how did you not know he was on the payroll ? Elon

This isn't just Twitter and the infiltration of the FBI and the DNC is rampant in the social media world.

If he was vetting data to destroy it, Musk should sue him.

He should never work for any public platform. traitor to the constitution and the country

Dems are radiation chemicals and toxic waste land.

elonmusk ..how many more Moles do you have? Hope Baker didn't delete any files? Your reply is appreciated.

Let me guess: Elon is an anti-semite now. Seems like a popular smoke-screen.

The judicial system of the United States has been destroyed by the Democratic Party, and the law enforcement agencies have become the SS of the Democratic Party. The United States has become a dictatorship, and the numb Americans only know how to eat, drink and have fun!

elonmusk and those files that were suppressed by Baker will be released…..eta please.

It seems like the folks leaving Twitter made no effect on its operations. Were they all monitoring/censoring accounts?

I’m still trying to wrap my head around the twitterfiles being released in part to show collusion between the DOJ/Biden campaign for info suppression and then you have one of the suppressors proofing the release This wasn’t a red flag to anyone at Twitter

❤️

'Allegedly' is a very convincing word.

'{[Allegedly]}'

The dirt is so deep. Thank you Elon.

Should be arrested for treason!

Good!
