Donald Trump Vows to Prosecute Google at ‘Maximum Levels’ for Election Interference
SUMMARY
ormer President Donald Trump announced plans to seek criminal prosecution of Google for alleged election interference, claiming the tech giant skews search results to favor Vice President Kamala Harris while disparaging him. In a Truth Social post, Trump argued that Google “illegally” promotes negative stories about him and called for action from the Justice Department. This follows a Media Research Center (MRC) study showing that left-leaning outlets dominate Google search results for political candidates, with Trump’s campaign website appearing buried in the results. MRC President Brent Bozell stated, “Google is blatantly interfering in the 2024 election.” Additionally, concerns have been raised over Google’s handling of politically sensitive topics, such as the recent assassination attempt on Trump, which did not appear in search suggestions.
