‘Kill Musk’s Twitter’: UK Labour Party’s US election interference aiding the Democrats – Paul Thacker

On this episode of Going Underground, we speak to Paul Thacker, founder of the Disinformation Chronicle and the 2021 British Journalism Award winner. He co-authored the ‘Election Exclusive: British Advisors to Kamala Harris Hope to Kill Musk’s Twitter’ article with Matt Taibbi. He discusses how Sir Keir Starmer’s Labour Party’s has interfered in the US election, trying to aid Kamala Harris in her efforts to win the presidency against Donald Trump, the nefarious history of the de facto Labour Party vehicle Center for Countering Digital Hate in the UK (CCDH) and its growing influence in the US, how the CCDH and its CEO, Imran Ahmed, are now attacking all of the enemies of the Democratic Party such as RFK Jr. and Elon Musk, the CCDH’s tactics to kill Musk’s Twitter/X by smearing him and stopping advertisers from using the platform, the media pushing Musk in the direction of Trump and the Republican Party, the Trump campaign’s letter of official complaint against Starmer’s Labour Party and Harris for accepting illegal foreign national contributions, where the CCDH’s money comes from and Ahmed’s close ties to the Democratic Party, the growth of the censorship industry on social media through ‘fact-checking’, X being the Democratic Party’s censorship toy before Musk bought it and the media’s total vilification of Musk after previously praising him for years, how legacy media outlets became mouthpieces for the Democratic Party subsequently resulting in a severe decline of public trust, and much more.
