The House Judiciary Select Subcommittee on the Weaponization of the Federal Government held a hearing to examine claims of censorship against the Biden administration for communication with social media companies concerning policing COVID-19 content on their platforms. Among those testifying were Missouri Senator Eric Schmitt (R) and Louisiana Attorney General Jeff Landry (R). During his tenure as the attorney general for Missouri, Senator Schmitt, along with Mr. Landry, filed a lawsuit against the Biden administration in 2022 for alleged free speech violations. The other witnesses in attendance testified to constitutional concerns pertaining to violations of free speech and the impact of disinformation on social media platforms. Lawmakers from both parties throughout the hearing engaged in tense exchanges over the intent of the hearing. close
