On Wednesday, the "New York Post" threw a blockbuster. According to the emails it obtained, the Democratic presidential candidate Biden used his power to help his son Hunter Biden obtain from a Ukrainian energy company during his tenure as vice president.
Subsequently, Facebook took special censorship measures against the content reported by the New York Post and restricted its spread on the platform. Twitter baselessly accused it of publishing "hacked information."
An email received by The New York Post stated that the newspaper’s main Twitter account was locked at 2:20 pm on Wednesday. Twitter also prevents users from sharing links to articles in the New York Post, saying the links "may be harmful." The article exposed the lie that Biden "never talked about his overseas business with my son". The email received by Hunter confirmed that he introduced the Ukrainian businessman to Biden.
Facebook spokesperson Andy Stone defended on Twitter that this story fully meets the criteria for being reviewed by Facebook's third-party fact-checking partners. At the same time, they are reducing their distribution on the platform.
Senator Josh Hawley, a Republican of Missouri, immediately launched a counterattack. He wrote to Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg, asking him to provide a further explanation for the "censorship." Holly warned that Facebook must fully explain that Stone and anyone behind Wednesday's review must be suspended immediately. If this is to follow Facebook’s policy, then Americans have the right to know the situation.
At the same time, Texas Republican Senator Ted Cruz also sent a letter to Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey, criticizing him for being "quite hypocritical" and preventing users from sharing "New York Post" articles. Cruz pointed out that this can only be seen as an obvious offensive launched by Twitter to interfere in the upcoming presidential election.
President Trump also tweeted on Wednesday night criticizing social media for abusing rights and calling for the abolition of Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act (Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act).
So terrible that Facebook and Twitter took down the story of “Smoking Gun” emails related to Sleepy Joe Biden and his son, Hunter, in the @NYPost. It is only the beginning for them. There is nothing worse than a corrupt politician. REPEAL SECTION 230!!! https://t.co/g1RJFpIVUZ
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) October 14, 2020
"It's horrible, Facebook and Twitter took down @NYPost's articles about sleepy Joe Biden and his son Hunter's 'conclusive evidence'," Trump wrote, "This is just their beginning. There is nothing like corruption The politicians of the country are even worse. Repeal Article 230!!!"
L. Brent Bozell III, the founder of the Media Research Center, conservative author and activist, said that what these big technology companies are doing is at best to promote Biden’s election but the worst part is that their blatant election interference is much more extensive than what Russia did in 2016.
Bozer emphasized that if the United States or any other democratic country hopes to hold free elections again, it must stop the abuse of power by big technology companies.

With 20 days to go before the general election, the October surprise that will appear at the final juncture of the election will make waves again. Today, the American media broke the news of the Democratic presidential candidate Biden's "Pass Ukraine" email evidence, as well as a large number of indecent photos and videos of Biden's son. The US Senate has been involved in the investigation. Please see the report.
The US "New York Post" exclusively exposed three Hunter Biden emails on Wednesday. The first was on April 13, 2014, when Hunter Biden had just joined the board of Ukrainian energy company Burisma. In an email to the board members of the company, Hunter Biden mentioned his father many times. Joe Biden, and used his relationship with his father to get a higher salary for himself. And Hunter Biden's salary in Brismar is the highest monthly salary of $50,000.
The second email was Vadym Pozharskyi, a consultant and executive to the board of directors of Brismar, who "urged" Hunter Biden to use his political influence to contribute to the company a month after Hunter Biden entered his post.
In another email from Brismar Energy in April 2015, Pozharski directly described his meeting in Washington through Hunter Biden with Joe Biden, the then Vice President of the United States.
A few days ago, Brisma Energy had admitted in a Ukrainian court that they had bribed Biden and his son Hunter in order to make the company profit. Local prosecutors accused Brisma Energy of bribing Hunter of 900,000 US Dollars.
These emails made Biden's repeated claims that he "never discussed his overseas business dealings with his son" into a lie.
In fact, less than a year after Pozharsky’s meeting with Biden and his son, Biden, the then Vice President in charge of Ukraine’s policy, used a $1 billion loan guarantee as a threat and successfully forced the Ukrainian authorities to fire. Viktor Shokin, the Supreme Prosecutor of Ukraine in the Brisma corruption case.
Former Vice President Biden said, "Within 6 hours, if that prosecutor is not fired, you don't want to get $1 billion, these bastards! Then he was fired." Xiao Jin once revealed after being fired, a criminal investigation has been planned for related personnel, including Hunter Biden.
The emails exposed on Wednesday all came from a laptop labeled "Bo Biden Foundation". After the water-damaged computer was sent for repairs, no one cares about it anymore and has not been retrieved. Eventually, the repair shop owner finally decided to notify the FBI. In December last year, the FBI obtained the hard drive of this laptop, and former New York Mayor Giuliani had obtained a copy of the hard drive before then.
Hunter Biden's email quickly fermented on the day of exposure. The US Senate's "Homeland Security and Government Affairs Committee" has begun an investigation. The chairman of the committee, Ron Johnson, said that he has contacted the email provider and verified it.
Although the email published on Wednesday is a blockbuster, the former New York Mayor Giuliani revealed on Twitter that “there will be more” and it is expected that there will be more “October” surprises appearing one after another before the election.
