Hillary Defunds Who?
It’s funny how all of this strange stuff just keeps happening.
It has now been learned that a dark money group which is linked directly to none other than Hillary Clinton targeted companies who advertise on Twitter and urged them to stop doing business with the social media company after billionaire Elon Musk moved in to purchase it.
According to Fox, Accountable Tech sent a letter to Twitter’s advertisers in order to put pressure on them and demanded that they hold “non-negotiable” requirements against Twitter in order to continue doing business.
They said Musk’s takeover would “toxify” Twitter and will threaten public safety.
In the letter to advertisers they wrote: “Twitter has outsized influence in shaping both public discourse and industry-wide platform governance standards. While the company is hardly a poster-child for healthy social media, it has taken welcome steps in recent years to mitigate systemic risks, ratcheting up pressure on the likes of Facebook and YouTube to follow suit.”
The group linked to Hillary Clinton then said, “Musk intends to steamroll those safeguards and provide a megaphone to extremists who traffic in disinformation, hate, and harassment. Under the guise of ‘free speech,’ his vision will silence and endanger marginalized communities, and tear at the fraying fabric of democracy.”
It’s currently unclear just how many companies received Accountable Tech’s letter however the letter was signed 25 other large liberal groups including Media Matters and Black Lives Matter Global Network Foundation.
