Musk’s X blocked links to JD Vance dossier after hearing from Trump campaign
Report: Trump campaign “connected with X to prevent the circulation of links.”
Elon Musk’s X blocked links to the JD Vance dossier after hearing directly from the Trump campaign, according to a new report that describes Musk’s extensive efforts to boost Trump’s presidential campaign.
A New York Times article titled “Musk Is Going All In to Elect Trump” said that “the relationship [between Trump and Musk] has proved significant in other ways. After a reporter’s publication of hacked Trump campaign information last month, the campaign connected with X to prevent the circulation of links to the material on the platform, according to two people with knowledge of the events. X eventually blocked links to the material and suspended the reporter’s account.”
We contacted X today and will update this article if it provides comment.
