Twitter Files: Jack Dorsey urges Elon Musk to ‘release everything without filter’

Published

on

The fallout continues as Elon Musk keeps pursuing transparency

Ex-Twitter boss Jack Dorsey is calling on the new CEO Elon Musk to make all the ‘Twitter files’ public.

The move comes after the company’s former deputy general counsel James Baker was fired for his role in suppressing the Hunter Biden laptop story.

Baker is accused of being part of a ‘deep state’ at the social media platform and sabotaging or obstructing the recent efforts by Musk in releasing information to the public.

Twitter’s former deputy general counsel James Baker is also former counsel to FBI director James Comey.

The situation allegedly came to Musk’s attention on Tuesday after revelations that Baker was delaying the release of files showing government collusion with Twitter to journalists Matt Taibbi and Bari Weiss.

In a Tuesday thread Taibbi wrote, “On Friday, the first installment of the Twitter files was published here. We expected to publish more over the weekend. Many wondered why there was a delay.”

“We can now tell you part of the reason why. On Tuesday, Twitter Deputy General Counsel (and former FBI General Counsel) Jim Baker was fired. Among the reasons? Vetting the first batch of ‘Twitter Files’ — without knowledge of new management.”

Ohio Republican Congressman Jim Jordan promised investigations into this and other Big Tech firms colluding with government officials to suppress information.

“I am very concerned about the government influencing big tech in this collusion we now see big tech, big media, big government all working to keep information from with the people,” Jordan said.

When asked about this story during the White House daily press briefing, press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said she will not comment of things that happened during U.S. President Joe Biden’s presidential election.

Fed faces critical leadership transition as Trump nominates new chair amid economic uncertainty and potential rate cut discussions.


The U.S. Federal Reserve is entering a critical period as it prepares for President Donald Trump’s upcoming nominee to lead the central bank. Markets are closely watching how the Fed will navigate this leadership transition amid ongoing economic uncertainty.

The Fed’s two-day meeting could result in a modest quarter-percentage-point rate cut. However, future policy decisions will hinge on key economic projections and inflation trends, leaving analysts debating how much room the central bank really has to maneuver.

Trump is pushing for lower interest rates to boost the housing market before the midterms, but this could complicate the next Fed chair’s path. Data delays from the recent government shutdown may also affect the Fed’s decision-making this week, adding another layer of uncertainty.

Paramount’s $108.4B bid for Warner Bros reshapes media landscape, likely facing antitrust hurdles amid board’s Netflix preference.


Paramount has launched a staggering $108.4 billion hostile bid to acquire Warner Bros Discovery, shaking up the media landscape. The proposal, supported by Jared Kushner’s investment firm and Middle Eastern funds, offers $18 billion more in cash than Netflix’s recent $72 billion deal for the same assets.

Warner Bros’ board is currently reviewing the Paramount offer but continues to recommend the Netflix deal. Analysts warn that a merger of this scale could face intense antitrust scrutiny, potentially delaying or even blocking the deal.

Paramount argues that its acquisition would boost competition and provide stronger support for the creative community, promising a new chapter in Hollywood consolidation.
