The FBI & the Hunter Biden Laptop
How the FBI & intelligence community discredited factual information about Hunter Biden’s foreign business dealings both after and *before* The New York Post revealed the contents of his laptop on October 14, 2020
The mainstream media’s blackout of the Twitter Files is appalling, but word is getting out anyway. A new Harvard-Harris poll finds that 76% of voters think former FBI official James Baker acted out of politics in censoring the Hunter Biden laptop story while at Twitter. (Baker, Twitter’s former deputy general counsel and a key player during the Trump “Russia-gate” timeline, was fired by Elon Musk following revelations regarding his role in handling the release of the Twitter files pertaining to the Hunter Biden laptop story.)

a) Baker demanded Twitter censor the NY Post's Hunter Biden laptop story even though it was 100% accurate;
b) there is no way Baker could have thought the emails on it had been faked or had emerged from hacking given his FBI traininghttps://t.co/G23dr3uVZt
According to FOXNews, the RNC has demanded FEC reopen investigation into censorship of Hunter Biden stories. The RNC claims that by limiting circulation of the New York Post article about Hunter Biden’s business dealings and Joe Biden’s alleged knowledge of those dealings, Twitter violated federal campaign finance law.
In October 2020, the RNC filed the complaint with the FEC alleging that Twitter’s censorship of stories about Hunter Biden’s laptop, his overseas business dealings and then-candidate Joe Biden’s alleged knowledge of those dealings amounted to an “illegal corporate in-kind political contribution” to the Biden campaign.
Author and reporter Michael Shellenberger who helped release the latest installment of “The Twitter Files” from Elon Musk, said internal documents showed former FBI officials were so intertwined with the social media giant, they practically had their own communications system. He also says: “Anyone who reads the Twitter Files, regardless of their political orientation, should share those concerns.”
