🔥🔥🔥 Breaking thread!🧵

Our elections have been globalized!

The World Economic Forum is involved in our elections thru partnerships in joint projects with the Global Cyber Alliance (GCA). Along with many other countries too.

This is concerning because:

🔸This was used for our 2020 election and later ones.
🔸Our elections are operating under the GLOBAL CYBER ALLIANCE.
🔸The WEF thinks one party rule is desirable and pushes China as a role model.
🔸 The Center for Internet Security (CIS) shares an address with the US branch of the Global Cyber Alliance.

So who are SOME of the Global Cyber Alliance partners?

Premium Partners:

♦️DHS CISA (Not listed but they are in the GCA meeting video.)
♦️Crowdstrike (Election machine and server security.)
♦️ICANN
♦️Microsoft
♦️ The Center for Internet Security (CIS or Cisecurity)
♦️Craig Newmark Philanthropies
♦️CentralNic Group PLC
♦️TIKTOK (China owned)
♦️Omidyar Network
♦️Etc

Some other partners:

♦️MITRE Corp
♦️Chertoff Group
♦️Brennan Center
♦️Alliance for securing democracy aka Hamilton68
♦️US Secret Service
♦️ MIS-ISAC (Multi-State Information Sharing & Analysis Centers)
♦️Universal Postal Union
♦️National Security Institute
♦️Belfer Center (China ties)
♦️Pen America a nationwide community of more than 7,500 novelists and journalists etc.
♦️Alliance4Eu (In doc)
♦️Plus tons more including globally!

Founders and Funders:

♦️Manhattan District Attorney
♦️Hewlitt Foundation
♦️City of London Police
♦️NY Metro Infragard (citizen alliance with FBI.)

A few extra concerns and highlights?

🔹The Brennan Center is also involved, so recall my mega thread on their massive election involvement!

🔹The World Economic Forum worked on the DQ framework. The IEEE Standards used to secure both ours and global election networks.

🔹Alvin Bragg (Manhattan DA) is a member. You click that partner link and it takes you to Alvin Bragg’s page.

🔹I have video of a July 2020 GCA America meeting with some US involved parties including; GCA, DHS CISA, Alliance For Securing Democracy, Mitre, Brennan Center, and CIS. A few highlights?

◦They don’t want a repeat of the 2016 elections.
◦They were concerned with paper ballot fraud.
◦Performed election roundtables, tabletop practice exercises, and what they called, “election dress rehearsals”.
◦Used MITRE SQUINT™ app to spot social media posts featuring election disinformation.

Following will be sub threads with all evidence and other pertinent information. So please keep watching for updates.

And of course, there could be even more added.Image

Let’s begin with the easiest, since this will be my most difficult thread to do, ever.

Brennan Center is a partner with the Global Cyber Alliance and was responsible for many election changes and self appointed responsibilities. The list is massive!

Some thread highlights?

🔸They said the 2020 election had a $4 billion dollar cost. How?
🔸 Their attorneys filed or intervened in lawsuits in Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Texas.
🔸Brennan Center was involved in audits in at least 2 states.
🔸They worked with Zuckerbucks Center For Tech and Civic Life and the National Vote at Home orgs.
🔸They worked with MANY Democrat groups, this was not bipartisan in my opinion.
🔸Plus tons more!
⚡️⚡️⚡️ Boom!

Honestly, I think I understated the World Economic Forum’s involvement with the Global Cyber Alliance which is involved in every aspect of our elections. It sounds like they are actually PARTNERS!

Read this thread! OMFG!
🔥🔥🔥 BIG BADA BOOM INSIDE!

This here thread 🧵 has more on the WEF partnered Global Cyber Alliance (GCA). Including orgs involved and their team. And even an awesome document!

A highlight is that Alvin Bragg’s Manhattan DA office is a FOUNDER/FUNDER of the GCA! 😵‍💫
Well bless lil Klaus Schwabs heart. He wants to establish one party rule globally just like the love of his life, China.

Considering the World Economic Forum is partnered with the Global Cyber Alliance that’s now a part of ours and global elections, we should be very worried.

The US and Brazil both ended up with dictators we didn’t ask for in my opinion.
Here you will find all videos related to the WEF partnered Global Cyber Alliance June 29 event. Watch for updates, and it could also include other events in the future.

Highlights so far? Pre election forwarning of a provisional ballot surge, election delays were purposeful, and Craig Newmark saying that this operation was to defend against OTHERS, and not just foreigners.
This history thread on the WEF partnered Global Cyber Alliance takes a few interesting twists.

🔸It was started by the Manhattan DA office Sept 2015.
🔸Hillary had 50 intelligence officials to assure narratives join her team the same month on Sept 25, 2015!
🔸Stephan Halper and Russian attorney, Veselnitskaya were both green lighted that same day (Sept 25, 2015).
🔸April 29, 2016 CrowdStrike, and GCA executive, Shawn Henry, was called in when the DNC discovered the intrusion in its system.
🔸May 4, 2016 GCA joined with M3AAWG whose members include Georgia Tech and Neustar Inc.

And as always, check for updates!
⚡️Breaking! Cisecurity aka the Center For Internet Security (CIS), that worked with DHS CISA for election security, didn’t just share an address with the Global Cyber Alliance (GCA).

CIS was actually involved in the creation of the Global Cyber Alliance!

I absolutely have no idea how I missed something so major!

“The City of London Police, Manhattan District Attorney and Center for Internet Security (CIS) were jointly establishing the Global Cyber Alliance (GCA), an international, cross-sector, non-profit organisation designed to confront, address, and prevent malicious cyber activity through the establishment of a strong network of cyber experts
and sharing of key information.

🚨 Folks, this may be my most massive find ever!! Serbian Otpor visited the Open Government Hub! And Otpor training is directly linked to its director too! This is a government ran org folks, this is serious.

This is Part 3 of my series on the Open Government Hub and the Open Government Partnership.

Recall the Hub (OGH) was at the same exact address as the Open Government Partnership (OGP). And the Global Network Lead of the Obama Foundation, Nada Zohd, is a director at the hub.

Well, the Hub (OGH) had a Serbia Otpor Founder, Ivan Marovic, at one of their events! They also had the Rhize (Linked) CEO and Director of global training there too.

Now read this:

“In 2016 Ivan Marovic designed and developed Global Coaching Corps for Rhize, a US based organization and did their fellowship.”

Do you know who is a board member of Rhize? None other than the Obama Foundation Global Network Lead, and Open Government Hub director, Nada Zohdy.

And get this, they even mentioned how the Otpor model was adapted for the United States!

Just remember that Obama’s OFA and Indivisible used Otpor for the resistance. Otpor defined is the resistance.

So now we have BOTH OFA and the Obama Foundation linked to Otpor!

And don’t you forget that Nadas hub report (doc), said that that the Open Government Partnership is an “inside the beltway affair”.

Here it is!

Rhize x Open Gov Hub: How Movement-Building Is Reshaping Social Change

Thursday, January 17, 2019

At: Open Gov Hub

“We invite you to join a conversation with Erin Mazursky CEO of Rhize and Ivan Marovic a co-founder of the Otpor Student Movement of Serbia and Rhize's Director of Global Training about the way that today's social movements are reshaping approaches to social change.

Over the last eighteen months, Rhize launched its first regional coaching network in eastern and central Africa with the idea that investing in local knowledge and leadership, we could create a new model for scaling support to grassroots movements.

The impact far surpassed expectations -- with an investment in 8 coaches in 5 countries, Rhize managed to provide support to 25 movements, over 1500 activists, and develop close to 70 new trainers equipped to support emerging movements in just one year. The impacts have provided tangible impact like helping a small Nairobi community gain access to potable drinking water to the emergence of a women's movement in Uganda to catalyzing a true community of peers and mentors that support one another with solidarity.

Join us for a conversation about how this model is being adapted in additional contexts like the U.S. and Thailand. And how it can have broader implications for the social change "sector" and how we think about supporting civil society in this age of movements.”

Have I finally found the holy grail?

Serbian Otpor is used by the CIA for regime change.

Ivan Marovic biography:

- Serbian Otpor Co-founder
- Rhize Otpor training
- African Coaching Network
- United States Institute of Peace
- International Center On Nonviolent Conflict

“Ivan Marovic is an organizer, software developer and social innovator from Belgrade, Serbia. He was one of the leaders of Otpor, a youth movement which played a critical role in the downfall of Slobodan Milosevic, Serbian strongman in 2000.

Since then he’s been advising numerous pro-democracy groups around the world and became one of the leading educators in the field of strategic nonviolent conflict. In the last two decades Ivan has been designing and developing learning programs on civil resistance and movement building, and supporting the development of training organizations, such as Rhize and the African Coaching Network.

In 2016 Ivan designed and developed Global Coaching Corps for Rhize, a US based organization, and implemented their Fellowship Program which is in its third year; he helped establish African Coaching Network, a network of trainers working in several African countries.

Ivan has also been recruited by United States Institute of Peace to head the development of their Coach-Mentor team within SNAP (Synergizing Nonviolent Action and Peacebuilding Program), one of USIP’s newest programs. What all these projects have in common is the development of learning communities and transnational networks of educators and practitioners of civil resistance and movement building.”

🔥Breaking! The Obama admin operated GLOBALLY within the federal government during the Trump presidency! Part 1.

How you may ask? Well, through the Open Government Partnership (OGP).

Let me get into some details. Meet Nada Zohdy, she’s the one who resurrected the OGP for Joe Biden. She was also responsible for overseeing this gov org for 7 years prior to her leaving July 2022. She operated this thru the Open Government Hub.

This hub was the back scenes of radical leftist activities. 3 other orgs, at least, shared the same address as the OGP. One being the Open government hub that Nada frequented.(See part 2)

Nada is the Global director of the Obama Foundation. And she ran the Open Government Hub under Trump. Oh yeah, surprise!

This woman hates the populist right. She organized over 40 leftist civil society orgs in coordination with the FEDERAL GOVERNMENT, at her beck & call during the Trump admin. The Trump Admin WAS PART OF THE RESISTANCE!

Trump let the OGP wind down, but never closed it. This was Nadas baby, then she handed it off to the Biden admin who resurrected this, & incorporated it into his Global Summit For Democracy in order to rule the world. What we are seeing today, is a global coup upon populists, which is us.

What we have here is gov led, radical leftist everything.

The Biden White House has regained control of the OGP, like when it started, but here’s some recent past history:

“OGP has bounced between a number of federal US agencies & entities, including: the National Security Council, the Office of Information & Regulatory Affairs, the General Services Administration, the Office of Science & Technology Policy, the Office of American Innovation, the Office of Management & Budget, &, most recently, the State Dept.

This instability has weakened leadership for coordination between implementing agencies & made civil society interaction difficult. In addition, IRM reports have documented ambiguity about whether the OGP process exists primarily as a foreign affairs exercise or a credible domestic reform process.”

“Senior ownership of the OGP process within government, led by the White House, is vital both to enable interagency government coordination & commitments, & to signal to civil society leaders that this is a worthwhile process for them to prioritize.”

In part 2, you will see that the below authoritarians are conservatives:

“2021 & 2022 provide an opportunity, unprecedented in recent decades, to turn back the tide of authoritarianism internationally. In particular, there are a variety of regional, global, & economic meetings where good governance & rule of law are central themes. This includes the recent OECD Anti-corruption Summit, the Group of Seven meeting, a special session of the United Nations General Assembly, OGP’s 10-year anniversary summit in Seoul, &, importantly, the Biden Admin’s planned Summit for Democracy.”

And this is where we get to the Biden admin being a GLOBAL LEADER:

“The final key ingredient for an improved US OGP process is making explicit, deliberate LINKS between DOMESTIC & INTERNATIONAL policy efforts whenever possible, to the mutual benefit of domestic & global reformers. This is an important product of the transformed political context & America’s ongoing democratic crisis. Biden globalization :

Multiple interviewees clearly stated that OGP can indeed be used to assert American leadership on many issues that require global cooperation.”

Bidens globalized courts:

“Criminal Justice, Civil Justice, & Broader Access to Justice Reforms

“Many participants called for a paradigm shift that reallocates resources away from police, militarization, and mass incarceration and towards equitable justice reforms for marginalized
communities. This includes rethinking justice- related data, clemency, criminal treatment of immigrants, policing, and sentencing.

I’ll give the history of the OGP started under Obama, and source this doc. Then look forward to part 2.Image
Image
Image
Image
Things are going to get harry later on. But in the meanwhile here’s the documentation on the resurrection of the Open Government Partnership.

It seems that Nada, the Global Network Lead of the Obama foundation, has been listed as a director of the Open Government Hub in multiple places.

So it wasn’t just for this report. It was for 7 years as of July 2022 and including the Trump admin.

But in this report, it mentions the Open Government Partnership hired her to do it.

Interestingly, The Open GovernmentPartnership and the Open Government Hub both shared the same address. 😹(See next post)

“Open Government Partnership (OGP) hired the author (Nada Zohdy) as a consultant to conduct a series of five roundtables with American civil society organizations to understand what a meaningful next U.S. OGP Action Plan with the Biden Administration would look like. The result is this report”

“Nada Zohdy is the director of the Open Gov Hub (OGH), at Global Integrity. OGH is the world’s first meeting
place and innovation hub that promotes transparency, accountability, and civic participation worldwide, by fostering resource sharing and collaboration across a network of 50 member organizations and 13 global affiliate hubs. She has been a consultant on civic engagement and democracy reform for the World Bank, the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD), the Participatory Budgeting Project, and the Democracy Fund.“

Now let’s deal with that sticky subject of addresses. Government led websites that pretend not to be.

I’ve poured over web pages, and these orgs all came up. They all shared the same address at the same time.

1. Open Government Partnership.



2. Open Government Hub



3. Global Integrity



4. Open Data Enterprise



5. And we can’t forget Defending Democracy, tho I see no address listed, its ran by the Open Government Hub and Global Integrity listed above at the same address.


Boohyeah! 👊🏻 Now let’s move on to part 2.archive.is/o6qHU

🔥 Breaking! Bidens global disinformation censorship plans further exposed! They are purposely targeting us!

A new document I found that changes everything! Biden is pushing a global anti populism & disinformation censorship scheme! And they are involving the UN’s SDG!

A little history first:

Recall I exposed Bidens 2021 & 2023 Global Summits to gain control of the internet & news. Their plans included using the, “International Fund for Public Interest Media”, with up to $30 million in USAID funding. The overall plans were to use the Internet & news to increase the, “truth”.

Anywho this was created by the NED etc funded, Omidyar Luminate & UK gov ran BBC Media.

(USAID? NED? UK Gov? Global censorship collusion? Essentially a CIA and leftist ran program, what can go wrong for conservatives? 👀)

This Biden initiated global censorship plan happened at the same time as the US and UK etc developed ministries for truth.

~Now for the goods:

I found the early planning document for this before Biden used it, & censorship & pushing “trusted media” was heavily built into the plans. With populism lumped in with authoritarian regimes.

They also discuss how Covid disinfo was a cluster-f without this marvelous plan in place.

1. Populists (republicans) are a bad thing, & there are too many of us on social media with disinfo:

“The people who feel most left out of society, both economically and politically, are those who often have least access to trusted, & trustworthy, information & platforms for democratic expression.

The rise of authoritarianism & POPULISM has often exploited & CAPTURED MEDIA SPACES best positioned to fill these gaps.”

2. They need to control the source of info to promote change in social norms & make you punish naughty political incumbents. Like perhaps Trump & Bolsonaro?

“Giving voters accurate
& credible information from trustworthy sources such as independent media or oversight institutions can CHANGE the prevailing SOCIAL NORMS, thereby reducing asymmetries & increasing voters’ willingness to PUNISH INCUMBENTS for poor performance, & bad practice such as corruption.”

3. You need to only get trusted information for elections. What happened in 2020?

“Elections are increasingly susceptible to MANIPULATION by those adept at exploiting big data (& those who pay for such manipulation). HATE SPEECH is on the rise & social cohesion, already often weak in fragile states, is increasingly undermined.

MISINFORMATION & DISINFORMATION has
become endemic, & access to trusted & trustworthy information from domestic media has declined.”

4. So let’s push trusted media only because disinfo is what’s dividing us:

“The arguments and evidence supporting the role of independent media in strengthening democracy & development are longstanding, widely acknowledged & largely accepted by the international democratic & development communities.

The COSTS TO DEMOCRACY & development when information & communication spaces are populated BY MISINFORMATION & DISINFORMATION, are fragmented & polarized, & when PEOPLE LOSE TRUST in the information they can access are only beginning to be assessed.”

“The VOID CREATED by weak or ABSENT TRUSTWORTHY NEWS & information is being filled by untrustworthy information.

5. This mentions issues with Brazil & WhatsApp.

COINCIDENTALLY, something did happen in Brazil with WhatsApp for their last presidential election.

“Evidence is growing that people in resource-poor settings are increasingly turning to PRIVATE SOCIAL MEDIA NETWORKS for their news – sources that have often been IMPLICATED IN spreading rumour & DISINFORMATION.

A recent report found that 53% of people in Brazil got their news from WhatsApp,”

“People in [resource poor] countries are far more likely to be part of WhatsApp groups with people they do not know than those in the West, which helps to explain
why countries like these are so prone to the spread of unchecked misinfo & disinfo.”

To be continued along with sources.Image
Image
Image
Image
🔥Overwhelming evidence of the Biden admins global censorship plans:

1. This page on the Covid Pandemic really hit home on their plans. Essentially they are saying, “wow we could have really used the International Fund for Public Interest Media to control the info”.

“If an International Fund for Public Interest Media (IFPIM) as outlined in this Feasibility Study already existed it would be ideally placed to both resource and coordinate a response to these media and informational elements of the current
crisis.”

“The pandemic further accentuates the critical need for widespread public ACCESS TO TRUSTWORTHY INFORMATION especially in times of crisis. The Director General of the World Health Organisation (WHO) has called the crisis an “Infodemic”, where MISINFORMATION is fueling both the spread of the virus and complicating the response.”

“The CAPACITY TO GENERATE TRUSTWORTHY NEWS AND INFORMATION is being further undermined by the pandemic. Public interest media capable of PROVIDING THAT INFORMATION is facing an “extinction event” as
advertising and other income collapses in the wake of the COVID 19 crisis.”

2. The United Nations SDG are involved and mentioned often in this document.

“The Fund will also need
to explain or measure its impact on helping to achieve the SDGs (extending beyond SDG 16.10, ensuring public
access to information). Such issues will be a key role for the IFPIM Board’s proposed Donor Liaison Committee.”

🔥 Some amazing coincidences!

Inside the document they discuss Brazil India and South Africa WhatsApp disinformation.

Well here’s a Misinfocon document that discussed invading private WhatsApp, Signal, and Telegram messages. And of course South Africa, Brazil, and India come up. An amazing coincidence eh?

On a later date, you will learn about how folks private messages were invaded for disinfo reporting and propaganda circulation for Brazil. And ordered by Alexandre de Moraes. Even more coincidental evidence.. 😹

“The void created by weak or absent trustworthy news and information is being filled by untrustworthy information.

Evidence is growing that people in resource-poor settings are increasingly turning to private social media networks for their news – sources that have often been implicated in spreading rumour and disinformation. For example, a recent report found that 53% of people in Brazil got their news from WhatsApp, 52% in India and 49% in South Africa. “People in [resource-poor] countries are far more likely to be part of WhatsApp groups with people they do not know than those in the West, which helps to explain why countries like these are so prone to the spread of unchecked misinformation and disinformation,” argued Nic Newman at the launch of the Reuters Digital News report in London in June 2019.”

Gee, is it no coincidence that Australia PM Anthony Albanese was at O’Bidens summits to create worldwide disinformation efforts amongst other things?

Alliance for the Future of the Internet:

“The U.S. proposes that countries would launch the new Alliance in December 202l with a call to action and high-level vision statement issued on the margins of President Biden's Summit for Democracy.“

“The second is the need to reassess of the aspirational vision of the internet that prevailed from the 90s through the 00s, in light of challenging developments including a world-wide misinformation epidemic, the concentration of power among a small number of dominant tech companies, and the rise of cyber-attacks and other security concerns.

It is time for a group of like-minded countries from both the developed and developing world to develop and promote a new and better vision of an open, trusted, and secure internet that promotes core democratic values and respect for human rights.”

The ultimate Alliance would involve countries signing on to an agreed Charter, which would include political commitments to align domestic legal regimes with Alliance principles and norms.

I’ve reported extensively on this. Whoever is running Biden is trying to influence journalists and the internet globally.

Part of this is pushing and rewarding “credible”sources of information while harming those who don’t.

I’ll reference my work.

This here thread references the News part, and the Internet is linked at the end.

The Biden admin has essentially led the globalization of our news and internet. Resulting in mass global censorship.
This is addition information on the Biden admins Global summit and its links to Samantha Power, Omidyar, and USAID.

Bidens International Fund for Public Interest Media is a huge part of this, and its founding partners are Omidyar’s Luminate and the UK gov funded BBC Media.

Luminate also partners with the just exposed Global Disinformation Index. And is funded by the left and the National Endowment For Democracy (NED).

Omidyar’s Luminate wants to:

“Rein in the unchecked power of the Big Tech companies & social media platforms to disseminate toxic narratives”

🔥Breaking! The National Endowment For Democracy (NED) AND the State Department’s USAID has funded the New York City Bar Associations charitable fund.

“Association of the Bar of the City of New York Fund, Inc. Supporting Independent Judges and Judicial Independence.”

They get additional funding from

- Soros Open Society
- Ford Foundation
- United States District Court, Eastern
District of New York
- NYS Unified Court System Office of Court Administration
- NYS Unified Court System Judiciary Civil Legal Services Funds
- Plus more

The City Bar Fund has four programs:

- The Cyrus R. Vance Center for INTERNATIONAL Justice

- The City Bar Justice Center

- The Office for Diversity and Inclusion

- The Lawyer Assistance Program

On Jan 11, 2021 The Bar Association of NYC and the Task Force on the Rule of Law proclaimed that Trump should be removed from office and criminally investigated along with law enforcement actions for the events on Jan 6.

With respect to the President’s, “extortionate” telephone call to the Georgia Secretary of State on January 2:

“Our Association urges that a thorough and vigorous investigation of the matter be conducted by the United States Department of Justice, the United States Attorney for the Northern District of Georgia, the Georgia Attorney General and the District Attorney of Fulton County, Georgia.”

On April 1, 2024, they put out another statement in support of Justice Juan Merchans unconstitutional gag order on Trump:

“Trumps statements were “threatening, inflammatory, denigrating, and [that] the targets of his statements ranged from local and federal officials, court and court staff, prosecutors and staff assigned to the cases, and private individuals including grand jurors performing their civic duty,” which resulted in fear on the part of targeted individuals and increased security resources needed to protect certain individuals and family members thereof.”

So the NYC Bar Association gets Federal funds and is calling for Trump to be charged, gagged, and arrested? And also, should the NED and USAID be involved with the US justice system?

Does anyone else think it’s odd for the National Endowment For Democracy (NED) to fund US court related stuff?

Association of the Bar of the City of New York Fund, Inc.

Supporting Independent Judges and Judicial Independence
$250,000

“To promote judicial independence and strengthen the capacity of judges to act independently and with integrity. The grantee will elevate the profile of independent judges’ associations from the region, hold multisector events to demonstrate support for independent judges, train journalists and CSOs on effective communication and advocacy around judicial independence, develop a manual for the defense and promotion of judicial independence, and collaborate with international law firms on best practices for accountable judiciaries.”

archive.is/Oyq5iImage
Recall the Cyrus R. Vance Center for International Justice falls under the NY City Bar Fund. Why are they concerned with international journalists and CIVIL SOCIETY?

Civil Society are often NGO’s. And news orgs are often the ones to start fact checking in foreign countries such as Brazil,

“To be considered for membership in Reporters Shield, an organization must be legally registered and focus primarily in news, PUBLIC INTEREST, and/or investigative reporting; publish reporting in print and/or online; have non-profit status or transparent ownership; be independent from political, commercial, or other undue influence or interference; and have editorial independence and adhere to professional editorial standards.

Reporters Shield is accepting applications worldwide and will be reviewing them in a phased approach, with some regions receiving benefits in the coming months, and others added later this year and in 2024.

🔥🔥🔥Breaking! Bad Kitteh Exposé part 27 Wikipedia is a part of the gov linked censorship apparatus as exposed by the CTI League Files!

My Wikipedia, Wikicred, exposé is released today in honor of ex Wikipedia CEO, and current NPR CEO, Katherine Maher.

You will see that Wikipedia joins big tech in the censorship of disinformation. Don’t miss the video!

Wikimedia Foundation, is the global nonprofit that operates Wikipedia. And under Katherine Maher’s leadership, Wikicred, its credibility department was formed in 2019 to counter disinformation.

“WikiCred is a partnership between MisinfoCon, The Credibility Coalition, and the Wikimedian communities that started with WikiConference North America 2019 at MIT.”

Funders include:
•Craig Newmark’s Philanthropies
•Microsoft
•Facebook

Recall that the Credibility Coalition also came from Misinfocon. And the Credibility Coalition Misinfosec Working Group wrote the Amitt/Disarm framework used by our DHS CISA today. And remember the involvement of Sara J Terp of the Ministry Of Defense and Pablo Breuer of Special Operations Command Donovan group, US Cyber Command etc too? They were both from Defenseworx’s Sofwerx.

In in a reciprocal kinda way, Wikicred funded the Credibility Coalition. They seem almost like one and the same to me. For example, Ahmed Medan of Hacks/Hackers, is credibility coalition, and he had a signup form for both Wikicred and the Credibility Coalition newsletters at the same time.

Hacks/Hackers is partnered with Google and they started planning for Misinfocon at a NewsGeist at Soros Open Society Partnered ASU.

Hack/Hackers created Misinfocon that created the Credibility Coalition. It’s very incestuous.

And just now, I found a video where Hacks/Hackers claims ownership. So I’m right. Interestingly, Kate Starbird is a member of Hack Hackers.

Now let’s move onto some goodies, but I’ll keep it short for now.

~Misinfocon trained 1000 Nigerians to edit Wikipedia

~ Wikicred trained media professionals to be “WikiFactCheckers”

~ Wikipedia Edit-a-thon, two-day edit-a-thon, with about 50 total volunteers was held alongside the Feb 2020 MisinfoCon.

~ Wikicred Grants were announced by Credibility Coalition at the Nov a WikiConference North America 2019 at MIT

~One year after the 2019 conference, 14 Wikicred projects were already created.

Video - Wikipedia addresses the, “Crisis In Trust”.

The first ever worldwide WikiCredcon held at the North America WikiConference at MIT.

Featuring Claire Wardle of First Draft News, and Amy Zhang of the Credibility Coalition.

Here Amy discusses her excitement in the Credibility Coalition partnering with Wikipedia for Wikicred.

Also in the room to join Wikipedia disinfo discussions was big tech including:

•Facebook
•Microsoft
•Google

Video description:

“News on Wiki Now is funded by a grant from WikiCred, an initiative by Hacks Hackers and members from Wikimedian community to promote credibility in the internet information ecosystem through Wikipedia.”

I’m feeling a bit overwhelmed throwing this out so fast, so this is enough for now. Sources and elaboration of details to follow.

Here’s the back history on Google, Hacks/Hackers, Newsgeist, Misinfocon, Credibility Coalition and more.

Everything always leads back to Google, including First Draft News. And they and Claire Wardle always seemed to be around for everything.

This below 🧵 is on top of yet another informative thread on Google in the disinformation racket. None of this has ever gotten enough attention.

These are must reads to understand our censorship apparatus.
WikiCred is a partnership between:

•Wikimedian communities
•MisinfoCon
•The Credibility Coalition

“Started with WikiConference North America 2019.”

Funders include:

• Craig Newmark’s Philanthropies
•Microsoft
Facebook.

“WikiCred supports research, software projects, and Wikimedia events that explore information reliability and credibility. The initiative offers microgrants of between $250 and $10,000. The program got its start at WikiConference North America 2019, a “WikiCredcon” that explored themes of information reliability and credibility.”
