WASHINGTON, D.C.) – Congressman Darrell Issa (CA-50) issued the following statement following his call for a fact-finding investigation by the House of Representatives into actions by technology companies, media organizations and political allies of the Democrat Party to censor media coverage and prevent public awareness of the numerous scandals of Hunter Biden.
“We know for a fact that Big Tech, the mainstream media, and allies of the Democrat Party worked together in the last days of the 2020 election to censor fact-based journalism and shut down social media platforms to ensure that the public did not have access to the truth about the scandals involving Hunter Biden and the Biden family. This is the most consequential political scandal since Watergate, and it deserves an investigation no less robust and no less bipartisan.
“It is not acceptable for tech companies to claim their political censorship was a “mistake”, not acceptable for the mainstream media to authenticate what it termed disinformation and helped to shield from public view, and not acceptable for both to collude with Democrat partisans and work to impact an election. It’s time for the full truth to be told.” --30 – Darrell Issa is the Representative of California’s 50th Congressional District. The District encompasses the central and northeastern parts of San Diego County and a portion of Riverside County, including the communities of Fallbrook, San Marcos, Valley Center, Ramona, Escondido, Santee, Lakeside, El Cajon, Temecula, and the mountain and desert areas of the San Diego-Imperial County line.
