Investigative journalist Paul Sperry told Breitbart News on Thursday that he was permanently suspended from Twitter without any explanation shortly after he tweeted about the FBI’s raid on Mar-a-Lago.
“No warning, no explanation, reason given, just this notice: ‘Your account is permanently suspended’ as I was trying to post a tweet,” he told Breitbart News in an email.
He said the suspension happened not long after a tweet of his on August 9 at 12:13 p.m. EST went viral that said:
DEVELOPING: Investigators reportedly met back in June w Trump & his lawyers in Mar-a-Lago storage rm to survey docs & things seemed copasetic but then FBI raids weeks later. Speculation on Hill RBI had PERSONAL stake & searching for classified docs related to its #Spygate scandal.
Sperry said, “In other words, the FBI may be covering its own tracks while using the [Presidential Records Act] as a pretext for the Mar-a-Lago search,” he wrote.
“It’s worth noting that the current deputy general counsel at Twitter is also the former general counsel at FBI HQ under Comey. His name as you may know is James Baker, and he was the top attorney who reviewed the fraudulent anti-Trump FISA wiretap warrants for probable cause,” he added.
“I doubt he is involved in monitoring content at Twitter, but I am told some sensitive content is brought to his attention. I am also told Twitter is now monitoring offsite influence of tweets and has ability to track the sharing and receiving of tweets down to the individual,” he said.
Sperry, who is currently senior staff writer for RealClearInvestigations and a New York Post columnist, has covered the Russia collusion hoax and the FBI’s role extensively.
