The FBI worked with social media to suppress the Hunter laptop story before the 2020 election.
In May, the Missouri and Louisiana Attorneys General filed a lawsuit (Missouri v. Biden) against the Biden Administration, including Joe Biden himself, Anthony Fauci, the Department of Homeland Security, and nearly a dozen federal agencies and Secretaries.
The suit alleges a massive, coordinated effort by the Deep State to work with Big Tech to censor Americans on issues including the Hunter Biden Laptop from Hell, 2020 Election Integrity, COVID-19 origin and skepticism, COVID-19 vaccine skepticism, among other issues.
Officials from the FBI and the Department of Homeland Security frequently met with major social media companies ahead of the 2020 election, and pointed out users and pieces of content for removal, according to information from a deposition of a senior FBI agent revealed by a state Attorney General.
“We found that the FBI plays a big role in working with social media companies to censor speech – from weekly meetings with social media companies ahead of the 2020 election to asks for account takedowns,” said Missouri Attorney General Eric Schmitt in a series of tweets, three days after deposing Special Agent Elvis Chan, who is in charge of cyber affairs at the FBI San Francisco Field Office.
Chan gave social media companies warnings that have led them to censor information about a laptop belonging to Hunter Biden.
Chan also revealed that “the FBI’s FITF and senior CISA officials had meetings with social media companies in the lead-up to the 2020 election”. The full extent of these meetings has not been revealed.
Schmitt shared: “Chan stated that the FBI regularly sent social media companies lists of URLs and social media accounts that should be taken down because they were disinformation from “malign foreign influence operations.” The FBI then inquired whether the platforms have taken down the content.”
Many times, social media would take down the accounts flagged by the FBI.
“Chan personally told the social media companies that there could potentially be a Russian ‘hack and leak’ operation shortly before the election,” Schmitt said.
Chan also revealed that the meetings with the FBI were weekly.
