* Mint Press' Alan MacLeod found that former CIA agents made up some of the top ranks in almost every politically sensitive department at Meta

* He also found that former FBI agents migrated to Twitter in droves

* DailyMail.com has been able to track down many of these former intelligence officials who are now working at top tech companies

Former US government intelligence agents are now working across Silicon Valley in senior roles dedicated to censoring 'misinformation', DailyMail.com can disclose.

A large number of ex-officers from the FBI, CIA, NSC and State Department have taken positions at Facebook, Twitter and Google.

The revelation comes amid fears the FBI operated control over Twitter censorship and the Hunter Biden laptop story.

The Twitter files have revealed the close relationship with the FBI, how the Bureau regularly demanded accounts and tweets be banned and suspicious contact before the Hunter laptop story was censored.

The documents detailed how so many former FBI agents joined Twitter's ranks over the past few years that they created their own private Slack channel.

A report by Mint Press' Alan MacLeod identified dozens of Twitter employees, who had previously held positions at the Bureau, by tracking down their LinkedIn profiles

He also found that former CIA agents made up some of the top ranks in almost every politically-sensitive department at Meta, the parent company of Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp.

And in another report MacLeod detailed the extent to which former CIA agents started working at Google.

It remains unclear whether any of these former agents have worked with their previous employers in a coordinated effort to quash any stories.

But the CIA is prohibited under federal law from 'engaging in any activities for purposes of affecting or interfering with the domestic political process.'

“Sometimes I wonder if some of our Q folks at Free Republic might be populated with the same.”

At this point anyone still spouting that Q nonsense should be summarily booted off the forum. It’s been a deep state con from the start.

What do you think Civ - are they really ‘ex’ CIA or just working undercover?

No one is ever ex-CIA, or so it’s been said.
