On this episode of Going Underground, we speak to Matt Taibbi, former Contributing Editor to Rolling Stone, Co-Publisher of the Twitter Files. and Publisher of Racket News. He discusses the legacy corporate media’s tireless failed attempt to elect Kamala Harris and beat Donald Trump, how Donald Trump’s victory represents a shift from US voters not listening to authorities to active defiance, the hope for free speech and a roll-back of digital censorship with Donald Trump, JD Vance and Elon Musk, the fate of Ukraine’s Zelensky and how likely it is that Donald Trump will end the foreign wars, and the vilification of the disenfranchised working class after the post-2008 financial crisis. In the second half of the interview he discusses why legacy media is dead after the majority of America voted against them, Kamala Harris’ rejection of new media such as Joe Rogan’s podcast which was fatal for her campaign, the possibility of a ‘Twitter Files’ for the entire US government to expose secrets behind censorship and foreign wars, how Donald Trump will shape his new cabinet and his future relationship with the national security establishment, the monopolisation of the US economy and why Donald Trump must combat it to fulfil his mandate, whether Donald Trump will face another assassination attempt, and much more.
