"The DNC and Biden Team knew they had friends at Twitter who would do their bidding during the election. And Twitter lied to the FEC about that influence.... But that's just at the surface...." — TechnoFog on Substack
At what point in his arduous take-over of Twitter did Elon Musk realize that the package came with a joker in the deck: James A. Baker, formerly general counsel of the FBI? Did he wonder:
what is this guy doing here? Were there any conversations between the two? Or did Mr. Musk just quietly observe his presence at a remove in nervous wonder, as one might, say,
upon discovering a scorpion in the corner of his hotel room?Mr. Baker, you understand, was notoriously at the center of the
FBI's FISA court fuckery that got the ball rolling in the
Crossfire Hurricane operation,
Act One of RussiaGate, as well as the
Alfa Bank caper concocted by Hillary Clinton (disclosed this year by special counsel John Durham), and probably every other sedition pie the FBI cooked in its oven in those years, considering Mr. Baker's position as
chief legal advisor to Director Chris Wray. When the alt-news media caught onto Mr. Baker's nefarious activities, he became inconvenient to the agency, was re-assigned to some nebulous task (polishing Mr. Wray's cuff links?), and quit in May, 2018. He landed temporarily — or was he, rather,
parked out-of-sight? — at the shadowy R Street Institute, an Intel Community cut-out, one of its countless PR channels in the DC Swamp.
