Twitter Files 10: Joe Biden's White House was all in for censoring valid COVID-19 information
American Thinker ^ | 27 Dec, 2022 | Monica Showalter

The Biden administration's enthusiasm for bad ideas like masks, lockdowns, and vaccine mandates was accompanied by a grotesque urge to censor dissidents.

Who says the FBI and its allied wokester government agencies were the only ones using Twitter as a proxy censor to shut down American political discussion?

Turns out that the White House had its snoot in that trough, too, particularly on the matter of COVID-19 information.

That's what independent journalist David Zweig found in his examination of the Twitter Files, in its COVID-19 edition.

According to the Washington Examiner:

The White House pressured Twitter to suppress tweets that included "misinformation" about the COVID-19 pandemic, even when Twitter users shared information from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

In the latest string of bombshells from the Twitter Files, the current White House "rigged the COVID debate" by censoring information that was "inconvenient to government policy," discrediting doctors and experts who disagreed with the administration's narrative, and by suppressing ordinary users, including those who shared data from the CDC, journalist David Zweig tweeted Monday.

Not just Twitter. The same is going on at Facebook/Instagram and Goolag/YooToob.

Instead of protecting and preserving our health and general welfare, they conspire to inject everyone with a substance they know is harmful. What can you possibly conclude from this deliberate censoring of legitimate discussion?

There were many Republican voters here who fought like hell on the side of the administration and for the official pro-vaxx narrative.

The truth is the truth...

At the onset of the pandemic, according to meeting notes, the Trump admin was especially concerned about panic buying. They came looking for “help from the tech companies to combat misinformation” about “runs on grocery stores.” But . . . there were runs on grocery stores.

Would you ignore the truth just because it is inconvenient?

“So was Trump’s administration, as the Twitter files make clear.”

Those tweets were to REDUCE panic and chaos. Biden admin tweets were to CREATE panic and chaos — with lies.
