Adam Schiff Demands Election ‘Misinformation’ Crackdown Through Social Media Censorship

Lucas Nolan 3 Oct 2024

Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA) is calling on Big Tech to censor alleged election misinformation, conveniently ignoring his own history of propagating the debunked Trump-Russia collusion narrative.

Democratic Congressman Adam Schiff is now demanding that major tech companies take aggressive action to combat the spread of so-called “misinformation” and “disinformation” ahead of the 2024 election. However, Schiff’s sudden concern about election integrity rings hollow given his prominent role in spreading one of the most damaging political conspiracy theories in recent memory — the Trump-Russia collusion hoax.

In a letter sent this week to the CEOs of Meta, X (formerly Twitter), TikTok, Google and others, Schiff and several Democratic colleagues expressed alarm about the “threat” of false and misleading online content to the upcoming election. The lawmakers pressed the tech giants on how they plan to alter their content moderation policies to crack down on users who share “mis- and disinformation.”

Is Schiff attempting to use the power of his current Federal Office, Congressman, to unduly influence the Senate election he's competing in?

Sounds like a potential ethics violation.

Frau Clinton demands the same.

Hillary Clinton says that social media companies must censor people's content or else "we lose total control."

“We should be in my view, repealing something called Section 230, which gave platforms on the internet immunity … Whether it‘s Facebook or Twitter or X or Instagram, or TikTok, whatever they are, if they don‘t moderate & monitor the content we lose total control”

Flipping the switch in pure evil socialist dim fashion.

'20 censor the users.
'24 censor the sources

Watch them somehow figure ought a way to jail Musk, between now and election.

First panic, then overreach.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
