Twitters former head of trust and safety claimed Friday night that Twitter CEO Elon Musk was putting peoples lives in danger by revealing internal company documents showing how employees censored conservatives and a negative news story about then-presidential candidate Joe Bidens son.

Yoel Roth, Twitters former Sr. Director, Head of Trust & Safety, complained about Musks decision to release internal company communications through journalist Matt Taibbi about the companys censorship of the New York Posts Hunter Biden laptop story during the 2020 presidential election.

Taibbi tweeted out screenshots showing that company officialswere in regular contact with Democrats and censored content that Democrats wanted removed.

Publicly posting the names and identities of front-line employees involved in content moderation puts them in harms way and is a fundamentally unacceptable thing to do, Roth posted on Mastodon.

Musk said that he decided to release the information because it was necessary to restore public trust in the platform after it censored the Hunter Biden story.

One of the tweets published by Taibbi showed that Democrats flagged content from conservative actor James Woods to Twitters content moderation team for removal.

Woods joined Fox News host Tucker Carlson as Taibbi was releasing the internal information from Twitter.

Ive been a target of these people for six years. They have destroyed my career, Woods said. They have destroyed my livelihood. Theyve destroyed my faith in this country that my family has defended in the military since the Revolutionary War.

I can guarantee you one thing, more than anything else youll ever hear in your life, I will be getting a lawyer. I will be suing the Democratic National Committee. No matter what, whether I win or lose, I am going to stand up for the rights of every American, he said. Im not a celebrity, Im hardly recognizable anymore because my career has been destroyed by these very people.

If I have to be the flag-bearer for this, then so be it. Ill be proud to do it, Woods added.The government of the United States conspired to take my free speech and throw it in the gutter. And theres something that they should fear more than anything they have ever imagined in their wildest dreams. The most dangerous man, these corrupt, vile vermin is an American, whos not afraid of him, and Joe Biden, and all those rats who work with you at the DNC, to close down my speech, I am not afraid of you. And Im coming for you.
