Former Twitter boss Jack Dorsey once testified under oath in 2018 that his company never shadowbanned or censored conservative users.

The claims have blown up amid a series of disclosures by the company — now under new management by billionaire and free-speech advocate Elon Musk, who bought it in October — showing a systemic effort to silence prominent conservative voices on the platform.

Dorsey appeared before the House Energy and Commerce Committee on September 2018 to discuss “Transparency and Accountability” at the company. While there he came in for a grilling from GOP lawmakers.

Lying to Congress is a crime but is only selectively prosecuted. Nothing will happen to him.

Musk is calling Twitter a crime scene. I am more and more convinced he has a way to get back some of his money by exposing this or there is something in the deal details that let’s him off the hook for the inevitable lawsuits

“Technically” he didn’t lie: the Twits had a different term for it. Sigh; he still lied, as he knew damned well that both terms were used for the same practice.

He lied. But he favored dems, so there will be no prosecution as there should be.

Lets see what badasses the Republican’s are on Jan 3, 2023.

My money is....they’ll do NOTHING. Too many folks, taking too much money.

Candidate Donald Trump admitted that he threw his money around for favors and help. The folks in DC make the street whore look like an amateur.

“The greatest defense for Dorsey may be found in the Justice Department itself. Any prosecution of Twitter executives could prove a hard sell for Attorney General Merrick Garland, whose department has been repeatedly accused of pronounced political bias.”

It's a company town kid, with company prosecutors, judges, and juries. Justice is whatever is best for the company.
