Story After Intelligence Officials Shared Hack ‘Rumors’

Twitter exec who testified to FEC called the Trump team 'Nazis'

Twitter blocked a story about Hunter Biden's laptop after U.S. intelligence officials shared "rumors" that Biden would be the target of a hack, an executive with the social media company told the Federal Election Commission.

Yoel Roth, the head of Twitter's Site Integrity Team, cited the information from U.S. intelligence officials to justify Twitter's decision to block access to a series of New York Post articles published in October detailing emails found on Biden's laptop. A conservative group filed a complaint with the Federal Election Commission accusing Twitter of giving an illegal campaign contribution to Joe Biden's presidential campaign by blocking access to the articles.

Twitter, Facebook, and other social media sites have long faced allegations of bias against conservatives. Roth, who helped develop Twitter's policy of labeling misleading posts, came under fire last year over tweets in which he called Donald Trump and his team "ACTUAL NAZIS." He also called Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R., Ky.) a "bag of farts," Fox News reported. Brandon Borrman, a former Twitter executive who was named in the FEC complaint, recently joined an anti-Republican super PAC aligned with the Lincoln Project.

The six-member Federal Election Commission voted unanimously to dismiss the Republican complaint, according to documents released Wednesday. The bipartisan commission accepted Twitter's claim that it blocked the articles for commercial purposes rather than for political reasons.
