Former CIA analyst Robert Baer appeared on CNN to discuss Elon Musk’s decision to restore banned Twitter accounts.
Elon Musk this week announced he will be offering a “general amnesty” to banned accounts provided that they have not broken the law or engaged in spam.
Should Twitter offer a general amnesty to suspended accounts, provided that they have not broken the law or engaged in egregious spam?

Musk’s ‘free speech’ approach to running Twitter is a major threat to the Deep State-media complex because they can no longer control the narrative.
Former CIA analyst Bob Baer on Saturday said Musk restoring banned Twitter accounts will give a voice to Vladimir Putin.
”Putin is going to be all over Twitter if there’s no regulations on this, fake accounts, spoofed accounts … And so when he’s talking about the popular voice, Musk, he’s really talking about Russian intelligence,“ Baer said.
No serious person believes this.

Bob Baer called freedom of speech “nonsense” and repeated the misconception that shouting “fire” in a crowded theater is ‘unprotected speech.’
The former CIA analyst said Putin will use Twitter to save himself in Ukraine.
“It’s not right. And you know, this freedom of speech is just nonsense because you can’t go into a movie theater and yell ‘fire.’ It’s against the law. What Putin is going to do and the Russians is they’re going to use this as a vehicle to save himself in Ukraine,” Robert Baer said.
Bob Baer actually said this with a straight face and the CNN host nodded in agreement.
