THE YOUTUBE FILES PART 3.

Before finalizing a new content moderation policy proposal, YouTube asked the Biden White House to review and for their “feedback.”

🧵 Thread:
.@JudiciaryGOP and @Weaponization obtained internal Google docs revealing the Biden White House’s pressure campaign against YouTube.
As revealed in the YouTube Files, the company was concerned things could “spiral out of control” and wanted to stay on good terms with the White House because they were seeking “to work closely with [the Biden] administration on multiple policy fronts.”
Throughout the spring and summer of 2021, the Biden White House was particularly focused on “borderline content”—that is, content that did not violate YouTube’s terms of service.
For example, in July 2021, Rob Flaherty forwarded this tweet to YouTube:

They asked why YouTube wasn’t more aggressively censoring this type of content, including a congressional hearing featuring Senator @RandPaul.
Image
YouTube explained that the videos were “not in violation of our community standards.” Image
But that resistance by YouTube was short lived.

By September 2021, YouTube had a developed a new content moderation policy proposal that would more aggressively censor content that was allegedly misleading about the safety and efficacy of vaccines.
But before this “proposal” was “finalized,” YouTube ran the policy by the Biden White House to get their “feedback.” Image
What did the Biden White House think of this new censorious policy proposal?

“at first blush, seems like a great step” Image
The Biden White House censorship campaign was so intrusive that Big Tech felt the need to run policy proposals by them.

Stay tuned...

HOW THE FBI “PREBUNKED” A TRUE STORY ABOUT THE BIDEN FAMILY’S CORRUPTION BEFORE THE 2020 ELECTION

The FBI knew Hunter Biden’s laptop was real & worked for MONTHS to prime Big Tech to censor the @nypost story.

Here’s how the FBI "prebunked" the biggest story of the election.

🧵 Image
In late 2019, the FBI obtained and secretly confirmed that the Hunter Biden laptop was real.

The laptop had damning material showing the Biden family’s corrupt influence-peddling scheme. Image
Image
Image
Just a few months later, while in possession of Hunter’s laptop, the FBI started meeting with Big Tech to warn about potential Russian disinformation ahead of the election.

In total, the FBI and Big Tech met over 30 times in 2020 before the Biden family corruption story came out.Image

THE AMAZON FILES PART 3 – AMAZON’S CENSORED BOOKS LIST

We knew that @Amazon censored books because of pressure from the Biden @WhiteHouse.

Now we know which books:

--Children’s Books
--Books for Parents
--Books critical of Big Pharma

🧵 Thread:
.@JudiciaryGOP and @Weaponization obtained internal Amazon documents showing that the urgent “impetus” for Amazon censoring books in March 2021 was “criticism from the Biden administration.”

To censor the books, Amazon created a “new [Do Not Promote] class for anti-vax books.” Image
Internal emails reveal that Amazon initially added 43 books to its newly created “Do Not Promote” class of allegedly anti-vaccine books.

These pro-censorship changes were being made “due to criticism from the Biden people.”

🧵 Thread:
On July 16, 2021, Mark Zuckerberg texted Sheryl Sandberg, Nick Clegg, and Joel Kaplan.

Could Facebook tell the world that “the [Biden] WH put pressure on us to censor the lab leak theory?" Image
Earlier that day, Joe Biden had told the world that Facebook was “killing people,” and the company was livid.

President Biden’s policies have ensured that most illegal aliens can remain in the country indefinitely—even after those illegal aliens have 𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐦𝐢𝐭𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐚 𝐜𝐫𝐢𝐦𝐞.

In fact, instead of ensuring that criminal illegal aliens can be quickly removed from the United States, President Biden and Secretary Mayorkas have made it 𝐦𝐨𝐫𝐞 𝐝𝐢𝐟𝐟𝐢𝐜𝐮𝐥𝐭 for ICE officers to arrest criminals.

🧵 THREAD:
In September 2021, Secretary Mayorkas issued a memo entitled “Guidelines for the Enforcement of Civil Immigration Law.”

The training materials for the “Mayorkas Memo,” which were obtained by @JudiciaryGOP, reveal the absurdity of the Administration's "enforcement priorities."
The materials include a laundry list of "mitigating factors" for an ICE officer to consider before arresting or removing an illegal alien, including:

-An illegal alien's age and length of presence in the United States;

-"[A] mental condition that may have contributed to the criminal conduct, or a physical or mental condition requiring care or treatment";

-"[I]mpact of removal on family in the United States, such as loss of provider or caregiver";

-"[W]hether the [alien] may be eligible for humanitarian protection or other immigration relief"; and

-"[T]ime since an offense and evidence of rehabilitation."

Secretary Mayorkas is currently BLOCKING the release of information related to several criminal illegal aliens.

Info we are seeking: when the illegal alien crossed the border, why they were released, criminal history, etc.

Who are the people that he’s covering for?

2. Daniel Hernandez-Martinez

On October 30, 2023, @JudiciaryGOP requested information about Martinez, a Venezuelan national, who allegedly “randomly attacked at least three strangers and two cops and [was] arrested—and released—six times on 14 different charges” within just two months of his arrival in New York City.
Roberto Emilio Vasquez-Santamaria.

On October 30, 2023, the Committee requested information about Vasquez-Santamaria, a national of Peru, following reports that Texas Rangers arrested the alien for an alleged murder. Vasquez-Santamaria is accused of “bludgeon[ing] [the victim] to death in the backyard of a home.”
