Rep. Darrell Issa (R-CA) was on with Maria Bartiromo on Sunday Morning Futures this morning.
What an explosive interview!
First Darrell Issa told Maria Bartiromo that former Attorney General Loretta Lynch and former President Barack Obama were intimately involved in the Trump Spygate scandal. Issa said Obama was hoping to use the information after the election to punish the Trump campaign and Trump supporters. “They got a special prosecutor under false pretenses.”
During their discussion Rep. Issa, the chairman of the House Oversight Committee, also said Congress was calling for an investigation of Twitter and other social media.
THIS IS A HUGE DEVELOPMENT!
Issa said it was time to start regulating Twitter and Facebook for their algorithms that censor and shadow ban conservative users and content.
“Rep. Darrell Issa: One of the challenges is these entities have special benefits, if you will, of being immune from, if you will the rest of the responsibility the rest of the media has. That can be taken away. In the case of Twitter and these others, to be honest, if they’re going to politic through algorithm they could well come under the Federal Election Commission. They could be considered to in fact be making an in-kind donation. They could have to register what those dollars are.
For right now what we want to do is we want to get them to admit the truth which is it doesen’t seem logical that when they come up with a new algorithm it only seems to affect Republican conservatives such as Jim Jordan and the like. It is the reason that both the Judiciary Committee and the Oversight Committee are trying to schedule on the first day back a hearing with Twitter to give them an opportunity to explain how this anomaly that only seems to affect conservatives.
This is great news for conservatives and the country!
