Twitter’s top ranks were riddled with ex-FBI agents and executives, stitching the company even closer to the federal agency now under fire for leaning on Twitter to meddle in the 2020 elections.
More than a dozen former feds flocked to the company in the months and years prior to Elon Musk’s purchase of the social network in October.
The Post found FBI influence was considerably more significant than just James Baker, the FBI’s former general counsel who later worked in the same role for Twitter. He was recently fired by Musk for interfering in the billionaire’s efforts to come clean about past transgressions at the company.
In some cases, the former G-men and -women held positions that would have put them close to company leadership directly involved in censoring The Post’s Hunter Biden coverage in October 2020.
Matthew Williams spent more than 15 years with the FBI, working mostly out of Seattle, where he served most recently as an intelligence program manager and senior supervisory intelligence analyst.
Williams joined Twitter in June 2020 — the same month as Baker — as a “senior director of product trust,” according to his LinkedIn.
Dawn Burton, a former federal prosecutor who served as deputy chief of staff to FBI boss James Comey, joined Twitter in September 2019 as director of strategy and operations and counsel organization, according to her LinkedIn and Bloomberg.
As a Comey insider, Burton would have been close to the agency’s Hillary Clinton email investigation as well as it’s probe into Russian interference in the 2016 U.S. elections?
Jeff Carlton worked for the FBI, CIA and as an intelligence officer for the US Marines before joining Twitter in May 2021. His now deleted LinkedIn account says he led “Twitter’s Strategic Response Team …

I brought up RICO in my post. I’m all for going after anyone involved in this nonsense. I’m just trying to be legally realistic about it.
The problem is our DoJ, not Elon.(not saying you said so)
The Libtard Secret Police infiltrated all social media they could in order to cheat in the election
I’ve been saying big media, social media, etc., are the communications division for deep state going back decades.
And it turns out that’s exactly what’s going on.
THIS is important information.
THIS is what is wrong in America.
THIS needs to be dealt with.
The problem is our DoJ, not Elon.(not saying you said so)>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>.
THats why I mentioned that several states need to initiate the action in Federal Court. THe federal courts have to hear it then.
Twitter, Facebook, Google etc are all working against the people. That is why the democrats are against Elon Musk purchase of Twitter as he is exposing the corruption.
And Elon has them all by the balls! I bet it stinks like a hippie sweat lodge.
Keep flushing Elon! Keep flushing!
Twitter employees were noodle-arm, sociopaths who couldn’t figure out which bathroom to use.
The low-IQ FBI would have found that working environment attractive.
“senior director of product trust,”....Now WTF kind of title is that and WTF exactly does he do?
BODY TYPE: Gender, age, ethnicity, haircut...
ACCESORIES: shorts, knit shirts, sunglasses, watches...
"Dr. Ben Carson" of SNL, was just wondering that same question!
According to Sundance at Conservative Tree House, Dorsey was pushed aside and the “ex” FIB and CIA agents actually ran Twitter.
Someone should look at HR and see if people intelligence goons didn’t like were fired - or not hired.
I’m guessing the FBI functions just like the KGB of the old USSR. Totalitarian thugs use the same playbook. China’s ‘intelligence’ run their ‘press’ and social media too. Democrats must be so proud. Will that idiot Liz Cheney ‘miss’ this story? Bet on it.
