1/7 🚨 BREAKING: The U.S. State Department just filed a sworn record in federal court calling the UK-based Center for Countering Digital Hate (CCDH) and its CEO Imran Ahmed 'a key collaborator with the Biden administration on weaponizing the national security bureaucracy to censor U.S. citizens.'"
Not our words. The government's.
Certified under penalty of perjury. Signed by Secretary Rubio personally.
Here's what this means for every American. 🧵👇
2/7 For 4 years they told us nobody coordinated anything.
The government was "just sharing views." The platforms were "just enforcing policies." CCDH was "just publishing reports."
3 weeks ago, CCDH told a Florida court it never even COMMUNICATED with the White House.
21 days later, the State Dept called its CEO a "key collaborator."
Both are now in the federal record. Only one can be true.
🔥 See it for yourself — what they told the court vs. what the government found:
3/7 CCDH's own leaked internal docs listed their priorities:
☠️ "Kill Musk's Twitter" 🇪🇺 "Trigger EU and UK regulatory action"
These aren't the words of a "watchdog." They're the objectives of a foreign organization running what its own staff called "black ops" against Americans.
And the State Dept confirmed they SUCCEEDED.
Read @thackerpd and @mtaibbi's original reporting on CCDH's leaked memo and election interference: disinformationchronicle.substack.com/p/election-exc…
4/7 Their targets included RFK Jr. — now the Secretary of HHS. @SecKennedy @RobertKennedyJr
CCDH ran "black ops" to deplatform him. They lobbied Google to demonetize American media. They pressured every major platform to silence the people in his orbit — during the exact period he was building a political movement.
That's not content moderation. That's ELECTION INTERFERENCE by a foreign NGO.‼️
5/7 Remember Murthy v. Missouri? The Supreme Court said those plaintiffs couldn't prove the specific chain from government → platform → their injuries.
Our case — Finn v. Global Engagement Center — was built to fix that. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.usco…
Our names were on the list. The government cited the list. The platforms acted on the list.
🚨Now the State Dept's own sworn record confirms the chain. This is the case Murthy couldn't be.
6/7 CCDH's CEO accused us of "profiting from causing death." He also encouraged comparisons of the "disinformation dozen" to sexual predators, mass murders and a criminal network under Parliamentary privilege: sayerji.substack.com/p/when-parliam…
He never retracted it. Never substantiated it. Never corrected it.
Instead he REPEATED it in a second federal court filing — while telling a different court it was just "publication of reports."
The State Dept says he "successfully led efforts to lobby" and "pressure U.S. companies to restrict speech."
That's not publishing. That's an operation.
7/7 We are 6 people and a volunteer legal team against Google, Meta, CCDH, and the federal government.
If we win, the precedent protects EVERY American from government-coordinated censorship.
If we lose, the blueprint survives for the next crisis and the next inconvenient voices.

The Secretary of State just proved us right. Help us finish this — together.
🇺🇸If you believe in freedom of speech, due process, the freedom to assemble, and our constitutionally-supported rights as Americans, share this widely! @unhealthytruth
