Michael Shellenberger puts out more Twitter Files. He tells us that the FBI took Hunter Biden’s laptop in Dec 2019 and they knew it didn’t come from hacking. The FBI spent 2020 telling Twitter that a “hack-and-leak” involving Hunter would occur in Oct 2020. The FBI was spying on Giuliani when he gave laptop to New York Post.
Please allow time for these files to load from Twitter. All twitter images are below the tweets so you do not have to go to twitter to see them.

We don’t know if the FBI agents who warned Twitter of “hack-and-leak” operation involving Hunter Biden knew that a) FBI had Biden’s laptop, or b) Giuliani was giving it to NY Post

But they didn’t need to know that. They could have simply been following orders.
And the fact that the FBI waged a disinfo campaign grossly exaggerating Russian influence, even though they knew the source of the Hunter Biden info was a computer repairman in Delaware, is the reason for a Special Counsel + Congress investigation.

It *appears* as though FBI employees and former employees worked together to cover up evidence of criminal activity on Hunter Biden’s laptop, perhaps with political motivations, and interfered in an election. That *appearance* is enough for a Sp. Prosecutor & Cong. investigation.

Perhaps the FBI agents who hyped a Russian hack-and-dump involving Hunter Biden didn’t know about the laptop or the surveillance of Giuliani. Perhaps FBI found no criminal activity by Hunter Biden. If so, great! But then we need to clear FBI’s name through an investigation.

But if FBI agents had, in fact, been engaged in a influence operation aimed at influencing the election, through the manipulation of mainstream reporters and senior execs. at Twitter & Facebook, we need to root them out, reckon with the implications, & de-politicize the FBI.

If the above is true, then this is, by far, the worst scandal in the history of the FBI.
— Michael Shellenberger (@ShellenbergerMD) December 21, 2022
We simply can’t let our highest law enforcement organization interfere in an election in the ways that FBI agents appear to have done.
The evidence laid out in this Twitter thread is sufficient to trigger a Congressional investigation and/or a Special Prosecutor to DoJ. There is much more evidence out there. A large, independent, and professional team must go get it. https://t.co/FrAAdZHf6l

There’s a lot of noise around Twitter right now but it’s clear that @elonmusk has performed a vital public service in allowing thes Files to come to light. At a time when his legal team is swamped with other issues, they have taken time to get us all the docs we request.
