In light of concerns about Baker’s possible role in suppression of information important to the public dialogue, he was exited from Twitter today

MORE:

James Baker was the FBI's asset at Twitter. Baker stayed at Twitter to continue running the org on behalf of his deep state handlers and he scrubbed the Twitter Files before Matt Taibbi received them. Elon found out and Baker has just been escorted from Twitter HQ

And you wondered why there were no references found to the FBI and the Hunter laptop





Reporters resumed searches through Twitter Files material – a lot of it – today. The next installment of “The Twitter Files” will appear @bariweiss . Stay tuned

I am shocked to learn that the FBI lawyer who signed off on an illegal FISA warrant containing fabricated evidence meant to deceive the federal courts was also involved in a corrupt scheme to hide evidence about the FBI’s role in censorship of the Hunter Biden laptop story.

So basically the FBI still had their guy in twitter until today. It's going to get a lot worse for Democrats.

The question now is did Jim Baker already destroy documents, even as late as THIS WEEKEND, to cover up what was going on?

somewhat surprised Musk wasn't more aware of this guy's background and fire him in the initial takeover. and anything he may have deleted can be recovered in most cases.

I'd venture to say that depends how he deleted the files. If he used some Government Level deletion, then the data is gone.

Glenn Greenwald:

It's a bit difficult to maintain the US Security State had no role in Twitter's censorship regime when *the General Counsel of the FBI* - centrally involved in Russiagate and all sorts of politicized abuses - ended up as Twitter's Deputy General Counsel, with paws in everything.

Barely a month ago, @lhfang and @kenklippenstein published a batch of previously secret documents proving how centrally involved DHS is in Big Tech's censorship schemes. Yoel Roth admitted he met with them and FBI weekly. None of this it in doubt.

By now, the evidence is overwhelming that the US Security State is heavily involved in pressuring Big Tech to censor. Zuckerberg said this. Twitter execs admitted it. Tons of documents prove it. Only liberal journalists and Dem functionaries try to put this in doubt.

So, no there,- there?!?
Only the dark deep cabal of the FBI could be so nefarious and plant a poison pill behind the Twitter firewalls.

It's like binge watching Netflix...the next episode is coming up...

BREAKING: New Batch Of ‘Twitter Files’ Expose “Secret Blacklists” Of Prominent Conservatives

Journalist Bari Weiss just dropped “part 2” of the bombshell “Twitter Files” that exposes the corruption that ran deep within Twitter under former management. This drop is titled “TWITTERS SECRET BLACKLISTS”, and the internet is going crazy.

She set the stage by confirming the information suppression tactics used by Twitter:

“A new #TwitterFiles investigation reveals that teams of Twitter employees build blacklists, prevent disfavored tweets from trending, and actively limit the visibility of entire accounts or even trending topics—all in secret, without informing users. Twitter once had a mission “to give everyone the power to create and share ideas and information instantly, without barriers.” Along the way, barriers nevertheless were erected.”

She then followed up with two brutal examples of people who were blacklisted for sharing narratives that didn’t align with Twitters far-left overlords:

3. Take, for example, Stanford’s Dr. Jay Bhattacharya (@DrJBhattacharya) who argued that Covid lockdowns would harm children. Twitter secretly placed him on a “Trends Blacklist,” which prevented his tweets from trending.



4. Or consider the popular right-wing talk show host, Dan Bongino (@dbongino), who at one point was slapped with a “Search Blacklist.”



So Dan Bongino had a “search blacklist”. Interesting. Surely that has nothing to do with his conservative views….right? She continued by exposing their “do not amplify” blacklist on TP USA’s Charlie Kirk:

5. Twitter set the account of conservative activist Charlie Kirk (@charliekirk11) to “Do Not Amplify.”



Incredible. I wonder how many liberal accounts they did this to? Probably zero.

She followed up with this tweet in which she explained that Twitter had previously denied that they took such actions:

6. Twitter denied that it does such things. In 2018, Twitter's Vijaya Gadde (then Head of Legal Policy and Trust) and Kayvon Beykpour (Head of Product) said: “We do not shadow ban.” They added: “And we certainly don’t shadow ban based on political viewpoints or ideology.”

7. What many people call “shadow banning,” Twitter executives and employees call “Visibility Filtering” or “VF.” Multiple high-level sources confirmed its meaning.

8. “Think about visibility filtering as being a way for us to suppress what people see to different levels. It’s a very powerful tool,” one senior Twitter employee told us.

9. “VF” refers to Twitter’s control over user visibility. It used VF to block searches of individual users; to limit the scope of a particular tweet’s discoverability; to block select users’ posts from ever appearing on the “trending” page; and from inclusion in hashtag searches.

10. All without users’ knowledge.


Weiss followed up by tweeting the following:

“We control visibility quite a bit. And we control the amplification of your content quite a bit. And normal people do not know how much we do,” one Twitter engineer told us. Two additional Twitter employees confirmed. The group that decided whether to limit the reach of certain users was the Strategic Response Team – Global Escalation Team, or SRT-GET. It often handled up to 200 “cases” a day. But there existed a level beyond official ticketing, beyond the rank-and-file moderators following the company’s policy on paper. That is the “Site Integrity Policy, Policy Escalation Support,” known as “SIP-PES.”

This secret group included Head of Legal, Policy, and Trust (Vijaya Gadde), the Global Head of Trust & Safety (Yoel Roth), subsequent CEOs Jack Dorsey and Parag Agrawal, and others. This is where the biggest, most politically sensitive decisions got made. “Think high follower account, controversial,” another Twitter employee told us. For these “there would be no ticket or anything.”


Then she dropped this bombshell about the Libs of TikTok account:

16. One of the accounts that rose to this level of scrutiny was @libsoftiktok —an account that was on the “Trends Blacklist” and was designated as “Do Not Take Action on User Without Consulting With SIP-PES.”



She followed up by going into further detail on the action against Libs of Tiktok:

The account—which Chaya Raichik began in November 2020 and now boasts over 1.4 million followers—was subjected to six suspensions in 2022 alone, Raichik says. Each time, Raichik was blocked from posting for as long as a week. Twitter repeatedly informed Raichik that she had been suspended for violating Twitter’s policy against “hateful conduct.”

19. But in an internal SIP-PES memo from October 2022, after her seventh suspension, the committee acknowledged that “LTT has not directly engaged in behavior violative of the Hateful Conduct policy." See here:




Weiss then followed up with more context by tweeting this:

The committee justified her suspensions internally by claiming her posts encouraged online harassment of “hospitals and medical providers” by insinuating “that gender-affirming healthcare is equivalent to child abuse or grooming.”

Compare this to what happened when Raichik herself was doxxed on November 21, 2022. A photo of her home with her address was posted in a tweet that has garnered more than 10,000 likes.




23. In internal Slack messages, Twitter employees spoke of using technicalities to restrict the visibility of tweets and subjects. Here’s Yoel Roth, Twitter’s then Global Head of Trust & Safety, in a direct message to a colleague in early 2021:



24. Six days later, in a direct message with an employee on the Health, Misinformation, Privacy, and Identity research team, Roth requested more research to support expanding “non-removal policy interventions like disabling engagements and deamplification/visibility filtering.”



25. Roth wrote: “The hypothesis underlying much of what we’ve implemented is that if exposure to, e.g., misinformation directly causes harm, we should use remediations that reduce exposure, and limiting the spread/virality of content is a good way to do that.”

26. He added: “We got Jack on board with implementing this for civic integrity in the near term, but we’re going to need to make a more robust case to get this into our repertoire of policy remediations – especially for other policy domains.”


Bari Weiss then concludes Part 2 of the Twitter files with this:

27. There is more to come on this story, which was reported by
@abigailshrier @shellenbergermd @nelliebowles @isaacgrafstein
and the team The Free Press @thefp.

28. The authors have broad and expanding access to Twitter’s files. The only condition we agreed to was that the material would first be published on Twitter.

29. We're just getting started on our reporting. Documents cannot tell the whole story here. A big thank you to everyone who has spoken to us so far. If you are a current or former Twitter employee, we'd love to hear from you. Please write to: tips@thefp.com

30. Watch @mtaibbi for the next installment.

They said shadow banning was just a right wing conspiracy. They lied again.

So we now have concrete evidence that a small group of far left radicals
at Twitter have been artificially rigging our political discourse for years. Seems like a monster threat to democracy.

Wanna bet the mainstream libtard fellating media ignore this too?

Agree that there is some account limitations being put in place. Disagree that this in a conspiracy for or against any party. Twitter felt that some of these folks were stoking falsities,lies or gaslighting content.

Why does that surprise anyone that you cannot falsely yell fire in a movie theater and wonder why your not allowed back in the theater or will be on doublesecret probation?

Companies make their rules and if you don't follow them you pay a consequence.
