It’s easy to point out what happened. The questions we must answer are, “What will we do about this? Where’s Jim Jordan? Stop talking and act. We need action and criminal charges to be filed now.” -Doug Hagmann

The importance of this report cannot be understated. On Monday, the House Weaponization Subcommittee published an interim report describing the actions of the federal government and “self-styled disinformation experts” who together, censored political speech ahead of, during, and after the 2020 presidential election. Per Rep. Jim Jordan:

“HUNDREDS of secret reports show how @DHSgov’s @CISAgov, The GEC (@StateDept), @Stanford and others worked together to censor AMERICANS before the 2020 election, including true information, jokes, and opinions.” The federal government, disinformation “experts” at universities, Big Tech, and others worked together through the Election Integrity Partnership to monitor & censor Americans’ speech.

Per Rep. Jordan, here’s how it worked:

• EIP “stakeholders” (including the federal gov’t) would submit misinformation reports
• EIP would “analyze” the report and find similar content across platforms
• EIP would submit the report to Big Tech, often with a recommendation on how to censor
