Given the machine that our federal, state and local governments have become and the fact they are indirectly in bed with multiple corporations I can't say this surprises me. I am surprised that it takes an offshore news outlet to print it.

Take it for what you may....

Spooks infiltrate Silicon Valley: Facebook is riddled with ex-CIA agents – including President’s briefer who now runs 'harmful content' team – so many ex-FBI work at Twitter they have Slack channel and Google is rife with ex-CIA
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.'

DailyMail.com has now been able to track down nine former CIA agents who are working, or have worked, at Meta, including Aaron Berman, the senior policy manager for misinformation at the company who had previously written the president's daily briefings.

Six others have worked for other intelligence agencies before joining the social media giant, many of whom have posted recently about Facebook's efforts to tamp down on so-called 'covert influence operations.'

David Agranovich, a former intelligence officer at the National Security Office serving at the White House, even seemed to have dismissed the Twitter Files, which have been released over the past few weeks and show an apparently coordinated effort to quash certain stories.

Meanwhile, at Twitter, DailyMail.com was able to find eight former FBI agents working in divisions of 'trust' and 'security,' as well as one man who had allegedly worked 'psychological operations' at the National Security Council.'

Others, though, like Kristie Canegallo, Google's former vice president of trust and safety have gone from their jobs at Big Tech companies to serving in intelligence organizations. Canegallo is now the chief of staff for the Department of Homeland Security.

Much Thanks Flash..still trying to figure out how to get things post here.

My pleasure.
