Former FBI legal counsel James Baker made another appearance in Monday's latest Twitter Files, the 10th edition, drawing a rebuke for attempting to have former President Donald Trump suspended for telling Americans to not be afraid at the start of the COVID-19 pandemic.

But, that is not all, Twitter CEO Elon Musk vowed Monday, teasing more revelations to come next week on COVID-19 censorship on the platform.

“Much more to The Twitter Files: Covid Edition than this introductory thread,” Musk tweeted. “Follow-up piece to come next week, featuring leading doctors & researchers from Harvard, Stanford & other institutions.”

“(Many of whom were, of course, actively suppressed on Twitter),” Musk added.

Baker, who as FBI legal counsel helped start the now-debunked Russia collusion narrative in the 2016 presidential election, was working at Twitter to help the government block COVID-19 information during the 2020 presidential election cycle.
