• Twitter boss Elon Musk fired general counsel James A. Baker for allegedly attempting to suppress the release of internal documents related to Twitter’s censorship of the Hunter Biden laptop scandal.
• “In light of concerns about Baker’s possible role in suppression of information important to the public dialogue, he was exited from Twitter today,” Musk wrote in a tweet on Tuesday.
• Musk added that Baker’s explanation of the events surrounding the laptop saga were ‘unconvincing.’
• Journalist Matt Taibbi, who released the first batch of internal files about the Hunter saga on Friday, claimed that Baker had been fired in part for ‘vetting the first batch of “Twitter Files” – without knowledge of new management.’
