(RightWing.org) – During the 2020 presidential election, Conservative pundits and politicians such as then-President Donald Trump claimed that their social media posts were being shadow-banned or labeled with unfair warnings about the content of their points of view about who should win the race or how to deal with the pandemic that was ripping through the world at the time. The Democrats who controlled the House of Representatives at the time blocked every effort to investigate the claims, but after the 2022 midterm elections, the Republicans won a majority and began looking into the matter. Their findings have caused the richest man in the world to vow to go after the censors with blood in his eyes.
Bias Exposed
The House Judiciary Committee released a report that they have titled “GARM’s (Global Alliance for Responsible Media) Harm — how [advertisers] seek to control online speech.” Their inquiry into the issue found that one coalition was responsible for about 90% of all advertising dollars spent worldwide to the tune of almost $1 trillion per year.
Two names were prominently linked together in the document, Elon Musk and Hunter Biden centered upon the mainstream media and Liberal politicians and their attempt to cover up the contents of President Joe Biden’s son’s laptop. Before the former stepped in and purchased Twitter (which he has rebranded as X) the platform had joined in with the rest of the world, after acquiring the social media giant he released a series of internal company documents showing how the previous owners had participated.
The Committee, under Chairman Jim Jordan (R-OH), went through hundreds of pages of email exchanges and other documents (available here) where GARM discussed the de-monetization of platforms such as Twitter and Spotify that did not comply with their “agenda” with mega-corporations like Coca-Cola and Unilever. Musk took to his own platform saying that “[he] has no choice but to file suit” and expressed his hope that at least some of the attorneys general across the country would use the evidence presented to file criminal charges against those involved in the “advertising boycott racket.”
Having seen the evidence unearthed today by Congress, 𝕏 has no choice but to file suit against the perpetrators and collaborators in the advertising boycott racket.
Hopefully, some states will consider criminal prosecution. https://t.co/5W4yf1wxVO

GARM also discussed Daily Wire, Fox News, and Breitbart as conspiracy theory sources where the former was already on one ad agency’s list in that regard and questioning why the other two were not relegated to that same category. Daily Wire’s founder Ben Shapiro testified before the Judiciary Committee and in his prepared opening statement labeled the group a “pseudo-objective ‘brand safety’ organization.”
Shapiro did not stop with GARM and slammed into the current administration, Democratic lawmakers, and the legacy media as being complicit in a “system [which] guarantees that advertising dollars flow only [emphasis his] to Left-wing media brands.”
He also gave a recent example of how the Leftists are continuing their pattern of denying any cognitive problems with Joe Biden, even after the horrifying “full-scale mental collapse” that POTUS suffered during his televised debate against Trump.
A cynic may have a legitimate reason for thinking it is not a question of IF the collusion amongst the Liberals is going to continue throughout the 2024 campaign season, but rather of how far they will be willing to go to keep their puppet in the White House.
