Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey and Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg, during a Senate hearing, said they received no reports or evidence suggesting that reports about Hunter Biden’s alleged emails and overseas business dealings were part of a Russian disinformation plot, as claimed by Democrat Joe Biden and his allies in recent weeks.
When questioned by Sen. Ron Johnson (R-Wisc.) on the censorship of the New York Post’s reporting on the matter, “Do either one of you have any evidence that the New York Post story is part of ‘Russian disinformation,’ or that those emails aren’t authentic? Do any of you have any information whatsoever they are not authentic or they are Russian disinformation?”
Dorsey responded: “We don’t.”
He later explained that Twitter blocked the NY Post’s initial report because Twitter “believed it fell afoul of our hacking materials policy,” adding: “We judged in the moment that it looked like it was hacked materials … we updated our policy and our enforcement within 24 hours.”
Johnson then asked Zuckerberg whether the alleged Hunter Biden emails and related claims were part of a Russian disinformation campaign.
“Senator, as I testified before, we relied heavily on the FBI’s intelligence and alerts to us, both through their public testimony and private briefings and alerts they gave us,” the Facebook boss said in response. “It’s not up to us either to determine whether it’s Russian interference nor whether it’s true,” he added.
The assertion that it is Russian disinformation came from a suggestion made by Rep. Adam Schiff, the House Intelligence Chairman, who told CNN earlier this month that the NY Post’s reports and claims made by Mayor Rudy Giuliani that suggested Joe Biden profited via his son through a series of questionable business ventures in Ukraine and China were a “smear” from “the Kremlin.”

Why is the FBI giving information to Facebook, Google, and Twitter it isn’t publicly conveying to the American people? Government secrecy is a major problem and threat to liberty. It seems the only secrets our government has is the ones it hides from the citizens. Foreign nations, large corporations, journalists, politicians and others are all in the know.

The hearing comes as social media sites blocked a New York Post article revealing details of Hunter Biden’s hard drive, prompting fury from Republicans and Donald Trump
By KATELYN CARALLE and REUTERS
The New York Post story revealed some of what was found on Hunter Biden’s intercepted hard drive, which he left at a computer repair shop.
Facebook also limited the story from being shared, citing its policy for slowing the spread of potential ‘misinformation.’ It said that it was going to be factchecked, although no such factcheck has become public after more than two weeks. The newspaper remains locked out of its Twitter account.

So if the hacking and Russian disinformation concerns have been shown to be non existent, why are they still blocking the Biden Inc. story???
The same FBI that sat on Hillary‘s emails, the same FBI who have sat on Biden‘s communications, and the same FBI that covered up Biden’s communications at the same time as the Democrats were impeaching Donald Trump over bullstalin.
Their Chicom masters have informed them they must help CORRUPT Joe Biden defeat America loving Donald Trump. And there’s a big pile of money at stake for them if they do.
It’s sickening really.
But the FBI warned them that it might be??
Shouldn’t the FBI be LOCKED UP IN GITMO, the entire Agency, to Protect the Citizens??
Well that just leaves Biden himself. I would be interested to hear his “explination attempt #2” being that it wasnt russia russia russia like he said in the last debate.
Jagoff & SkidMark. THOUGHT BURNING TOTALITARIANS in plain sight.
“Why is the FBI colluding with Biden?”
Rush said today that it’s possible that the FBI withheld the scandal information because they wanted to use it to blackmail Biden if he became President.
Jack Dorsey is so smart, condescending and utterly untruthful. As a bonus he physically resembles Ted Kacycinsk (sp) and he apparently is successful in killing voices he dislikes..

GREAT analogy. 2020 unibomber bombing thoughts. Thanks, Yolanda.
Dorsey looks like Englels with a nose ring. Lots of these 20-30 somethings have that look and are HARD communists. Money doesn’t matter, just the agenda.
“We updated our policy within 24 hours.”
He must be talking “Business hours”.
