A TWITTER FILES bombshell just dropped revealing how a foreign, dark money group (CCDH) targeting the free speech of US citizens may have been indirectly funded by the US government, military, and taxpayers themselves. Moreover, CCDH is part of a vast Censorship Enterprise which knowingly called for the suppression of true stories and content related to injuries from the experimental mRNA jabs.
In a remarkable example of the media acting as a proxy for NGOs like the Center for Countering Digital Hate (CCDH), newly released emails show that the Financial Times gave Twitter until the end of the day to provide a “steer” on whether the so-called “disinformation dozen,” of which I am included, should be deleted from their platform as urged by CCDH.
The clear message in the email above from the Financial Times/CCDH: either Twitter delete the twelve accounts held by the so-called “disinformation dozen,” or brace for bad headlines. Incidentally, our 13-year old GreenMedInfo.com Twitter account was deleted only two weeks earlier immediately after I called out CCDH for publishing a digital hit list with my name on it. Moreover, CCDH’s campaign to deplatform 12 US citizens was revealed to be a ‘faulty narrative, without evidence,’ on August 18th, 2021, when Facebook VP of Content Policy revealed that CCDH’s statistics were inaccurate by an astronomical margin of 300 fold. It should be noted that not a single retraction or correction from CCDH, a government agency, nor several thousand media outlets has occurred since this came to light.
Matt Taibbi, the four time NY Times bestelling author and American journalist, has done extensive reporting on the so-called TwitterFiles, revealing a ‘vast Censorship Industrial Complex’ at play between the US government, NGOs, and the commercial media, together which conspired against and succeeded in depriving countless US citizens of their first amendment rights.
Taibbi gave testimony on the subject to the House Judiciary Committee on March 9th, 2023, at the Hearing on the Weaponization of the Federal Government on the Twitter Files, summarizing his findings as follows:
“We learned Twitter, Facebook, Google, and other companies developed a formal system for taking in moderation “requests” from every corner of government: the FBI, DHS, HHS, DOD, the Global Engagement Center at State, even the CIA. For every government agency scanning Twitter, there were perhaps 20 quasi-private entities doing the same, including Stanford’s Election Integrity Project, Newsguard, the Global Disinformation Index, and others, many taxpayer-funded.
A focus of this fast-growing network is making lists of people whose opinions, beliefs, associations, or sympathies are deemed “misinformation,” “disinformation,” or “malinformation.” The latter term is just a euphemism for “true but inconvenient.”
Undeniably, the making of such lists is a form of digital McCarthyism.
Ordinary Americans are not just being reported to Twitter for “deamplification” or de-platforming, but to firms like PayPal, digital advertisers like Xandr, and crowdfunding sites like GoFundMe. These companies can and do refuse service to law-abiding people and businesses whose only crime is falling afoul of a distant, faceless, unaccountable, algorithmic judge.
As someone who grew up a traditional ACLU liberal, this mechanism for punishment without due process is horrifying.
Another troubling aspect is the role of the press, which should be the people’s last line of defense.
But instead of investigating these groups, journalists partnered with them. If Twitter declined to remove an account right away, government agencies and NGOs would call reporters for the New York Times, Washington Post, and other outlets, who in turn would call Twitter demanding to know why action had not been taken.
Effectively, news media became an arm of a state-sponsored thought-policing system.”
In Tweet 24 of yesterday’s TwitterFiles release, Taibbi revealed that this elaborate network of state-sponsored censorship was, in cases, taxpayer funded:
“The difference is, these campaigns are taxpayer-funded. Though the state is supposed to stay out domestic propaganda, the Aspen Institute, Graphika, the Atlantic Council’s DFRLab, New America, and other “anti-disinformation” labs are receiving huge public awards.”
Remarkably, this tweet helps to answer an ongoing question as to who is behind the CCDH’s defamatory campaign to target US citizens like myself for villification, deplatforming, and threats of class action lawsuits; a campaign so powerful and well funded that it recruited 14 State Attorneys general, the CEOs of Twitter, Facebook, and Google, the White House press secretary, the Surgeon General, and the president of the United States (Biden), as well as the entire world’s mainstream media outlets to parrot CCDH’s narrative that twelve US citizens were responsible for “killing people” by sharing our opinions and publically available and even government-sourced information on vaccine risks.

Is CCDH, a ‘Foreign, Dark Money Group,’ funded by the US Government and Taxpayers?
CCDH’s Chair of the Board, both in the US & UK, is Simon Clark, a resident senior fellow at the Atlantic Council’s Digital Forensic lab, which describes itself as an organization which “has operationalized the study of disinformation by exposing falsehoods and fake news, documenting human rights abuses, and building digital resilience worldwide.”
As you can see above in Table 2, the Atlantic Council is literally paid by the US government and defense contractors taxpayer money. This is all the more concerning given that the CCDH has been identified as meeting the Commission on Countering Extremism’s own definition of so-called “hateful extremists.” You can learn more about this by reading the investigate series here: The Center for Cancel Culture and Digital Hypocrisy Part 1 and Part 2.
CCDH’s suspect behavior, e.g. a foreign NGO producing a digital hit list and orchestrating the defamation and canceling of American citizens, was called out by Senator Josh Hawley on July 20th, 21, when he tweeted “For days now, the Biden’s Administration has said 12 people are “guilty” of spreading #COVID19 “misinformation” on social media. Who compiled this list for them? The Center for Countering Digital Hate. A foreign dark money group”

Indeed, we may now have an answer. CCDH appears to have domestic ties to the US government (and it’s taxpayer base) via the Atlantic Council, and perhaps still as of yet unknown actors.
BOMBSHELL: True Content About Vaccine Side Effects Targeted for Suppression
Perhaps even more newsworthy than a foreign influence operation to crush free speech being enacted against US citizens funded by their own government, is the revelation that a project called the “Virality Project” created in partnership with Stanford Internet Observatory, NYU, University of Washington, Atlantic Council’s DFR Labs,1 to name a few, recommended that multiple platforms take action against “stories of true vaccine side effects,” and “true posts which could fuel hesitancy.” [Tweet 32, March 9th TwitterFiles] Taibbi notes: “None of the leaders of this effort to police Covid speech had health expertise.”
In tweet 33 of yesterday’s TwitterFiles release, Taibbi writes: “This is the Censorship-Industrial Complex at its essence: a bureaucracy willing to sacrifice factual truth in service of broader narrative objectives. It’s the opposite of what a free press does.”
Indeed, what we see here is an unconscionable example of an agenda that I have been speaking out about since I created Greenmedinfo.com in 2007, namely, the underreported and unintended, adverse effects of medical interventions such as vaccination, and the intentional suppression of information on their risks, without which informed medical choice and consent is not possible, and the violation of our basic human rights inevitable. More specifically, I raised awareness about the anticipated harms associated with the mRNA jabs on Dec. 6th, 2020, reporting on the FDA’s “DRAFT Working list of possible adverse event outcomes” associated with the imminent rollout of COVID-19 vaccines subject to FDA safety surveillance, showing that death, as well as 21 other conditions (most of which are possibly life-threatening), are listed as possible adverse outcomes of the COVID-19 vaccines.
