A House Judiciary Committee hearing into Twitter’s censorship of the New York Post’s reporting on Hunter Biden’s laptop went off the rails Wednesday thanks to Democrat shenanigans.
Take the Democrat shenanigans of Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, who came to the hearing equipped with her usual shameless distortions of the truth.
Instead of accepting the now-confirmed fact that Hunter Biden’s laptop is real and that coverage of it was censored by Twitter, she used the hearing to weave a fraudulent narrative about how the whole story is somehow “half-fake.”
Indeed, to hear the congresswoman tell it, the story was practically manufactured out of thin air as part of some “right-wing political operation.”
“So they’ve dragged a social media platform here in Congress. They’re weaponizing the use of this committee so that they can do it again. A whole hearing, about a 24-hour hiccup in a right-wing political operation. That is why we are here right now. And it is — it’s just an abuse of public resources and abuse of public time,” she said.
“We could be talking about health care, we could be talking about bringing down the cost of prescription drugs, we could be talking about abortion rights, civil rights, voting rights, but instead we’re talking about Hunter Biden’s half-fake laptop story. I mean, this is an embarrassment,” she added.
