BREAKING: Elon Musk Fires Twitter’s Deputy General Counsel James Baker “In Light of Concerns” About His Role in Suppression of Hunter Biden Laptop Story

On Tuesday, Twitter owner Elon Musk fired the company’s deputy general counsel and vice president James Baker, who reportedly helped hold back a story about incriminating material found on Hunter Biden’s laptop just prior to the 2020 presidential election.

Baker, a former member of the FBI’s general counsel, also had a role in spreading the Steele dossier’s bogus claims of Trump-Russia ties, the Washington Times reported. This made his efforts to suppress potentially harmful information on Democrat Joe Biden particularly irksome to conservatives and free speech advocates.
“In light of concerns about Baker’s possible role in suppression of information important to the public dialogue, he was exited from Twitter today,” Musk said in a tweet.
Baker was sacked after Musk revealed Twitter’s internal deliberations ahead of the decision to ban the laptop story published on October 14, 2020, by the New York Post.

Musk gave access to Twitter’s internal communications to journalist Matt Taibbi, simultaneously allowing him to share his findings publicly. What ensued was a 41-Tweet thread from Taibbi, focusing on Twitter’s collaboration with the U.S. Democratic party – ‘The Twitter Files’.
According to Matt Taibbi, “Twitter took extraordinary steps to suppress the story, removing links and posting warnings that it may be ‘unsafe’. They even blocked its transmission via direct message, a tool hitherto reserved for extreme cases, e.g. child pornography.”

Taibbi’s further findings reveal that Twitter executives responsible for banning the story did so referring to Twitter’s ‘Hacked Material Policy’. However, as a former Twitter employee states “Hacking was the excuse, but within a few hours, pretty much everyone realized that wasn’t going to hold. But no one had the guts to reverse it.”

Elon Musk said he asked James Baker to explain his decision to censor the Hunter Biden laptop story.
“His explanation was… unconvincing,” Musk said in response to a Twitter user.

Twitter has been facing immense change since new owner, billionaire Elon Musk, took over the social media company. Some of the changes include reinstating accounts that have been earlier banned, firing thousands of the company’s employees and what is most astounding, bringing to light Twitter’s collaboration with “connected actors” to delete or ban accounts unfavourable to the powers that be.

Mr Musk gave access to Twitter’s internal communications to journalist Matt Taibbi, simultaneously allowing him to share his findings publicly. What ensued was a 41-Tweet thread from Taibbi, focusing on Twitter’s collaboration with the U.S. Democratic party – “The Twitter Files”.

Matt Taibbi’s report starts with a short account of what Twitter was intended to be and how slowly, as the moderation powers of Twitter staff grew, the main goal of the company became stained with overreaching moderation.
“By 2020, requests from connected actors to delete tweets were routine. One executive would write to another: ‘More to review from the Biden team.’ The reply would come back: ‘Handled.’,” Taibbi wrote.
