Fox News contributor and civil rights attorney Leo Terrell asked in a tweet yesterday how many former FBI agents are currently employed at Twitter.
In response, Twitter owner Elon Musk responded by telling Terrell that he is “generally pro-FBI,” although he didn’t give Terrell a figure.
Terrell wondered in the tweet, “Question for @elonmusk : How many former #FBI agents are currently employed at @Twitter ?”
Musk replied, “To be clear, I am generally pro-FBI, recognizing, of course, that no organization is perfect, including FBI.”

Some conservative Twitter users, still stinging from the raid of former President Donald Trump among other things expressed their displeasure with Musk’s response.
Former GOP Congressional candidate Lavern Spicer called it a “Rare Elon L.”
Rare Elon L.

Commentator Jason Meister asked Musk, “Are you aware of the FBI’s involvement in the Governor Whitmer fednapping, the unsolved pipe bomb investigation, and January 6th?”

Trump-supporting Twitter user Jen Waidner explained, “I think many of us used to trust the FBI… The CIA… The DOJ… The DOD… I can’t think of one that I trust anymore ….not one.”
After another user told her, “I trust NONE of them,” Waidner added, “We can’t! Oh I forgot the IRS and CDC… Even though the CDC is actually privately owned and not a government agency as most people think it is… Yes, it is hard to trust anyone after this complete nightmare our country has been put through. Why would we.”

While it is unclear why Musk chose to respond but not actually answer the question, it seems that he is in the process of draining the Twitter swamp so it is good for him to be made aware, in our opinion.
