An FBI agent contacted a top Twitter executive hours before The Post published its first exposé about Hunter Biden’s questionable overseas business dealings in October 2020.
The FBI sprang into action just hours after The Post reached out to Hunter Biden for comment about his scandalous laptop — which contained details of the then-presidential candidate’s son and his extensive dealings with Chinese and other foreign business interests – warning Twitter and Facebook executives, without any evidence, that it was a Russian “hack and leak” operation.
A day later, Twitter and other social media companies censored The Post’s article, “preventing it from spreading and, more importantly, undermining its credibility in the minds of many Americans,” the latest release of Elon Musk’s “Twitter Files” revealed Monday.
FBI San Francisco Special Agent Elvis Chan sent 10 documents to Twitter’s then-head of site integrity Yoel Roth and at least one other person on the night of Oct. 13, 2020, via a special one-way communications channel, according to independent journalist Michael Shellenberger. Chan asked Roth and his colleagues to confirm they had received the documents.
Approximately two-and-a-half hours earlier, Shellenberger went on, Hunter Biden attorney George Mesires had called and emailed Delaware computer repair shop owner John Paul Mac Isaac after learning from The Post that the first article based on files recovered from the abandoned laptop would be published the next day.
“I am a lawyer for Hunter Biden and I appreciate you reviewing your records on this matter,” Mesires wrote to Mac Isaac.
It is not clear what was in the documents Chan emailed to Roth, who played a key role in suppressing The Post’s bombshell.
But the timing is uncanny and, as Shellenberger reported, Chan’s action was in keeping with a larger effort by the FBI to squelch speech on the platform

The NY Post reaches out to Hunter about his laptop.
Hunter calls dad, who alerts the FBI.
The FBI goes to Twitter, Facebook, Google, etc and crushes the story immediately.
Leftists instinctively side with evil and against good. Just look at treatment of Biden and family vs. Trump and family.
.
They had full surveillance on Giuliani and Toensing.
And they followed the media conversations
Dad was a private citizen
Why would Trump's FBI listen to him?
Suppose, for the sake of argument that it was a “hack and leak” operation.
So what?
Whoever did the hacking would have been doing a service to the American voters.
Heh.... you’re in rare form today.
Because Trump is a moron who appointed Wray and did nothing about the FBI even while he knew they were totally behind the Russian Collusion story.
The FBI has been doing this before Trump came down the escalator. TWA Flight 800, Hillary Clinton server, Vince Foster, FBI Crime Lab scandal, etc. etc etc.
The FBI acted criminally here. I want Grand Juries seated and indictments issued.

“Suppose, for the sake of argument that it was a “hack and leak” operation. So what?”
Exactly. What matters is whether or not the information is true or not.

Because some private citizens, especially powerful Democrats like say, Obama and Biden, have a stronger control over the FBI than a sitting Republican President does. Obviously.
Obama’s FBI, case closed. It was never Trump’s FBI
Was Hunter’s camera left on, or secretly recording him as he gazed at his laptop screen? Whilst cavorting around in the room with hookers? It’s the only thing that makes sense. only an imbecile would record all the horrible things he was doing.
The DOJ/FBI is America’s KGB
Exact same job, slightly different methods
FBI agents in hell want ice water too.
you say: “Why would Trump’s FBI listen to him?” What in the living hell makes you think that it was ever ‘Trump’s FBI?’
They had to get out front and coverup for their despicable butt buddy and his crooked junkie pervert son
