During an appearance on Tucker Carlson’s Fox News show this Friday, actor James Woods promised to sue the Democratic National Committee over a Twitter thread posted by journalist Matt Taibbi about the Twitter’s handling of the Hunter Biden story.
Taibbi’s thread detailed the behind-the-scenes events that led up to a New York Post report on the story being blocked by the platform over concerns that the story was regurgitating “Russian disinformation.” Many of the details within the story were later confirmed by multiple major news outlets.
“Celebrities and unknowns alike could be removed or reviewed at the behest of a political party,” Taibbi tweeted while sharing an internal communication that included a James wood tweet apparently sent to Twitter’s content moderation team “from the DNC.”
Speaking to Carlson, Woods said that he would be suing the DNC over the claim and said “these very people” were responsible for destroying his career.
“I can guarantee you one thing more than anything else you’ll ever hear in your life: I will be getting a lawyer. I will be suing the Democratic National Committee no matter what,” Woods said.
“Whether I win or lose, I am going to stand up for the rights that every American – not a so-called celebrity. I’m not a celebrity — I’m hardly recognizable anymore because my career has been destroyed by these very people,” he said.
