🚨 NEW INTERNAL FBI CHAT LOGS SHOW THE FBI IMPOSED A “GAG ORDER” ABOUT THE NY POST STORY ON HUNTER BIDEN’S LAPTOP THE DAY IT CAME OUT
🧵 THREAD:
The FBI had Hunter Biden’s laptop, but on the day the NY Post story came out, the FBI refused to tell Big Tech the truth.
Last year, we detailed the FBI’s months-long campaign to ‘pre-bunk’ the New York Post story on the Biden family’s corruption ahead of the 2020 election.
Our report showed how the FBI worked to discredit the story as so-called ‘Russian disinformation’ before it was even published.
The FBI’s campaign to discredit the Post story continued even after it was published on October 14, 2020.
That morning, one FBI analyst tried to tell Twitter that the laptop was real—until his bosses shut him up.
The Committee had testimony from key FBI personnel, but until now, the FBI refused to produce the internal communications from that day in unclassified form for the American public to see.
An internal FBI chat log newly obtained by the Committee shows the FBI deliberately withheld information about the FBI having Hunter Biden’s laptop and an ongoing criminal investigation involving the Biden family’s corruption: “do not discuss biden matter.”
The internal FBI chat log also shows how far senior FBI officials went to silence this analyst.
After the meeting, a senior FBI lawyer put a “gag order” on the analyst.
The analyst was also “admonished” by FBI staff, who lamented that he still wouldn’t “shut up.”
With the truth-telling analyst given a “gag order” and the FBI refusing the comment, Big Tech censored the Post story because the FBI had, for months, led them to believe it was Russian disinformation and had withheld the fact that the FBI was in possession of the laptop.
During the week that Facebook demoted the story, over 30 million Americans cast their ballots in the 2020 presidential election.
Fortunately, President Trump, @AGPamBondi, @FBIDirectorKash have ended the FBI’s Foreign Influence Task Force, which was responsible for this ‘prebunking’ operation.
We will continue to work with them to increase transparency and end the weaponization of federal law enforcement.

🚨 Today, @JudicaryGOP and four other @HouseGOP Members sent a letter to EU Commissioner Michael McGrath requesting a briefing about how the actions of Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk’s government might infringe upon Americans’ right to free speech online and what the EU is doing to respond to the Tusk government’s anti-democratic actions.
Since entering office in December 2023, Prime Minister Tusk has pursued legal actions against his political opponents that appear designed to silence and damage any political opposition ahead of Poland’s 2025 presidential election.
Here’s why Americans should be concerned. 🧵
In March 2024, Poland’s Internal Security Agency arrested Father Michał Olszewski, a Catholic priest with a reported friendship with the Polish Justice Minister under the former Law and Justice (PiS) party government, on charges that reportedly lack supporting facts or documentation.
In January 2025, Polish Deputy Prime Minister Krzysztof Gawkowski suggested withdrawing the broadcasting license of media outlet Telewizja Republika, a station critical of the Tusk government.
In March 2025, the Polish Parliament, controlled by Prime Minister Tusk’s party, stripped PiS leader Jarosław Kaczyński’s legal immunity so he could face charges brought by a politician from the ruling coalition.
🚨 Fraud on ActBlue: How The Democrats’ Top Fundraising platform Opens the Door for illegal election Contributions
🧵 THREAD:
@JudiciaryGOP @HouseAdmin and @GOPoversight have been investigating ActBlue.
Today, we’re releasing our preliminary findings: ActBlue made its fraud-prevention rules “more lenient” twice in 2024—even though there is extensive fraud on the platform, including from foreign sources.
🚨REPORT: New data uncovered by the Committee reveals the Biden-Harris Administration's rampant abuse and expansion of the Temporary Protected Status program.
🧵
🚨 The vast majority of TPS beneficiaries were not admitted to the U.S. with a valid visa.
🚨 Instead, more than 95 percent of Venezuela TPS beneficiaries, for example, were illegally paroled, entered without inspection, provided the government no information all about their entry, or remain in the U.S. based on having filed an asylum application.
🚨 The Biden-Harris Administration funneled hundreds of thousands of aliens it illegally paroled into the country into TPS, attempting to shield them indefinitely from deportation.
🚨 The number of aliens with TPS nearly QUADRUPLED during the Biden-Harris Administration, adding 1,006,859 aliens in just four years.
🚨 More than half of all aliens granted TPS initially entered the U.S. during the Biden-Harris Administration.
This morning, the Committee passed @repdarrellissa's No Censors on Our Shores Act to block foreign officials who violate Americans’ First Amendment rights from stepping foot on U.S. soil.
Here’s why. 🧵
In April 2024, the Committee uncovered how Brazilian Supreme Court Justice Alexandre de Moraes ordered multiple American companies, including X, to suspend or remove over 150 social media accounts—including the accounts of U.S. residents and journalists—or face massive fines.
When @elonmusk, an American citizen, and X refused to comply, Justice de Moraes threatened X’s legal representative in Brazil with arrest, froze Brazilian bank accounts of SpaceX, another Musk-owned company, and ordered Brazil’s telecom agency to block access to X across Brazil until Musk paid $5 million in fines and agreed to comply.
With new, expansive censorship laws on the books, the EU can now effectively force American companies to take down posts globally, including in the United States.
🧵 THREAD:
Under recent European case law, a European country can order a takedown globally.
Read for yourself cases from Europe’s highest courts including the European Court of Justice:
After major events—even if the event takes place outside the EU, such as the Oct. 7 Hamas terrorist attacks—the European Commission sends a letter to American tech companies with burdensome requests for information on how they plan to censor “disinformation.”
