Ex-CIA agent who signed ‘spies who lie’ letter tried to hide Twitter job after Post cover

 A former CIA agent who signed the October 2020 open letter that dismissed The Post's bombshell reporting on Hunter Biden's laptop emails as Russian disinformation worked on policy enforcement at Twitter as recently as last year and did not disclose her role to Congress, new "Twitter Files" reporting shows.

Nada Bakos alerted her senior policy team - including now-former Twitter head of trust and safety Yoel Roth - that her photograph was one of 20 on The Post's March 19, 2022, cover highlighting 51 former intelligence officials who cast doubt on the authenticity of the laptop, according to an email sent the same day and obtained by Substack journalist Texas Lindsay.

"Hi All - I wanted to make you aware of the NYPost cover that I was 'featured' on related to the Oct 2020 story about Hunter Biden's emails when he was on the Board of the Ukrainian Gas company, Burisma and a letter signed by 100s of former IC officials," Bakos wrote in an email that listed her title as a senior policy domain specialist of site integrity.

Getty Images for HBO Bakos is widely believed to be the inspiration for Jessica Chastain's character of Maya in the 2012 film "Zero Dark Thirty," but has denied the rumors, saying Chastain's character "Appears to be an amalgamation of women I knew and worked with." Neither Bakos nor X immediately responded to a request for comment.

A senior fellow at the Foreign Policy Research Institute, Bakos has also written articles for the Washington Post and other outlets criticizing former President Donald Trump for firing FBI director James Comey in May 2017 and arguing his tweets made him sensitive to Russian intelligence operations.

Fauci Files Reveal Pfizer Helped Biden Rig 2020 Election

 Pfizer secretly colluded with Joe Biden's team to help him rig the 2020 election against Trump, according to new Fauci documents. In his new book, "On Call," Fauci admits that Albert Bourla, the CEO of Pfizer, called him the night after Biden was declared the winner of the election, to inform him of Pfizer's "Game-changing results" from the rigged mRNA trial. "On November 7, after the absentee ballots were counted, Joe Biden was declared the winner of the presidential election. It was the very next night that Albert Bourla, Pfizer's CEO, called me away from my neighbors' fire pit to inform me about the game-changing results from the Pfizer mRNA vaccine trial. I finally thought we had truly turned a corner in defeating this terrible disease." Today reports: In another interesting tidbit, Fauci discusses Trump's FDA Commissioner Stephen Hahn declaring that he would not go along with the Trump Administration's plan to roll out the vac...

  Multiple U.S. states governed by Republicans are withdrawing state funds from BlackRock's management, as they disapprove of the ESG investment policies of the world's top asset manager, the Financial Times reports.

The Biden-Harris White House Has An Iranian Spy Leaking U.S. Intelligence In It

 The question is, how did classified intelligence from the United States, showing Israeli military movements that suggest broader action against Iran, get to Tehran? The answer raises uncomfortable questions for the Biden-Harris White House, which has opposed Israel every step of the way in responding to Hamas, Hezbollah, and Iran. Defying Biden got Israel the entire leadership of Hezbollah and Hamas, with the ultimate threat still looming: Iran and its nuclear program. Operations against Iran are being assessed also because Iran has started firing ballistic missiles into Israel, targeting civilian centers across the country. If Israel is close to launching a broader offensive against Iran, leaking U.S. intelligence would be a way to both try and deter Israel and give more warning to Iran. In 2012, similar allegations were made against the Obama administration when U.S. intelligence leaks showed that Israel was working towards using "Azerbaijan as a base of operations in the event...
