The federal government has been working with a group of four private companies to flag supposed election “misinformation” for censorship by social media platforms.
Two recent reports, published on Friday and Saturday by Just the News, reveal the group was responsible for the censorship of 20 news outlets during the 2020 election.
After Biden was in the White House, Just the News reported, the group was “rewarded” with millions of taxpayer dollars and its work continues today.
Most of the targeted groups were right-leaning in their coverage. Those outlets include Just the News, the New York Post, The Epoch Times, The Washington Times and the Washington Examiner.
In addition, the group, which calls itself the Election Integrity Partnership, put together a list of “repeat spreaders” of election misinformation in 2020. The list included now-former President Donald Trump, his sons Donald Trump Jr. and Eric Trump and a number of other prominent right-leaning figures on social media.
The four members of the EIP are the Stanford Internet Observatory, the University of Washington’s Center for an Informed Public, the Atlantic Council’s Digital Forensic Research Lab and Graphika, which deals in social media analytics.
In a lengthy report dated June 15, 2021, the EIP describes itself as an “information exchange” between various entities, including “election officials, government agencies, civil society organizations, social media platforms, the media, and the research community.” The report said the EIP helps these groups pass information back and forth regarding supposed “mis- and disinformation” occurring on social media.

A lot of bombshells and kraken these days. All I hear are crickets. Maybe it is my tinnitus.
Correct. Even if the Republicans get control of the House and Senate they will ignore the bombshells and do nothing. They have no intentions of holding anyone accountable for anything.
First Amendment much, Communist criminal vermin?
insurrection and corruption in government - every day we hear more information.
sooner or later, the dam of information will burst and finally those who are asleep will DO something. Like vote for the few who are willing to stand up.
Call Mitch, he’ll get right on this.
First Amendment - Not only are ‘guaranteed’ to be able to EXPRESS our opinions, we are also guaranteed the right to OBTAIN information.
“The First Amendment prevents government from requiring you to say something you don’t want to, or keeping you from hearing or reading the words of others (even if you never speak out yourself, you have the right to receive information).”
...”In quotations from one court ruling, “‘[F]reedom of expression upon public questions is secured by the First Amendment’” so that “‘debate on public issues should be uninhibited, robust and wide-open.’””

Look behind any NGO, political lobbying group, war-mongering globalist think tank, or ideologue/leftist social-engineering organization - you will almost always find a trail back to Fed.gov money.
US Fed.gov is captured and controlled. And you will pay for it.
Where’s the investigation/hearings/raids, etc?
(I know, I know.)
Unless Commierats are in charge. Bacteria hate sunlight.
Raids? Silly, the FBI doesn’t investigate crimes against the Constitution anymore. They raid people who dare to talk about crimes against the Constitution.
Yes....thus my (I know, I know).
So now what guys? More disinformation about disinformation? At some point doesn’t this circle back and bite you in the butt?
Just the tip of the iceberg. The entire system works like this.
I think they are finally trying to simplify it with a lower-cost option - just letting the machines pick the winners as directed.
Translation: Stories were covered truthfully. Stories inconvenient to thew left did not go uncovered.
RICO every last one of them, both government and korporate civilians.
RICO?
What these people did warrants consequences that will be written of 100 years from now, as a grim warning to any other would-be tyrants.
Another example of targeting is they did not do a report on the Left’s social media and webpages.
What? With taxpayers to milk? How silly.
