Adam Schiff Demands Crackdown On Election ‘Misinformation’ After He Spent Years Spreading Russia Collusion Hoax
SUMMARY
Rep. Adam Schiff is calling on Big Tech to ramp up censorship of 'misinformation' ahead of 2024 election. In a letter to CEOs of major tech companies, including Meta, X, and Google, Schiff voiced concerns over the spread of false information that he believes threatens democracy. The letter cites a study from NYU, which claims that the distribution of harmful content poses a risk to the election. However, Schiff has a history of spreading his own misinformation, regarding allegations of Russian collusion with the Trump campaign. He famously claimed on MSNBC that there was “more than circumstantial evidence” linking Trump to Russia and asserted on CNN that he had seen “damning” evidence of collusion—claims that were later disproven by the Mueller report. This comes on the heels of revelations from Mark Zuckerberg, who admitted that Facebook was pressured by federal authorities to suppress free speech, including the Hunter Biden laptop story, under the guise of fighting 'misinformation'.
