Many Americans were stunned during the course of Joe Biden's administration in Washington by the aggressive censorship tactics used to suppress thought that was not necessarily wrong, but did not align with the Democrat talking points adopted by the White House.
Mark Zuckerberg of Facebook has admitted to Congress that the Biden administration pressured him, including swearing at his employees and screaming at them, to censor what the Democrats didn't like.
Multitudes of conservative thought expressions simply were erased.
Alongside that was the stunning use by Biden of the power of the federal government to attack, through law enforcement and the courts, those whose ideologies differed from his.
An example would be the legal assaults that were created against President Trump, including one that shared virtually identical circumstances as the evidence against Biden. The cases involved a former president, or in Biden's case a former vice president at the time, having government documents.
Trump was attacked with multiple felonies; Biden got a free pass.
But now those two campaigns are going to be under review themselves, as two of Trump's executive orders, issued immediately after his inauguration, address the concerns the American public has about them.
The order also instructs the attorney general, expected to be Trump nominee Pam Bondi, to work with other executive agency chiefs to "investigate how federal government actions over the four years of the Biden administration could have infringed on free speech," the report said.
The logical result will be, the report said, "remedial actions" based on the findings.
The result of the Biden censorship agenda included pressure from the government, and then action by private actors, including social media companies whose officials simply demonetized or even suspended accounts for those individuals and groups, including news organizations, that reported facts unfriendly to Biden and his schemes.
The topics targeted included anything that questioned the COVID-19 shots he mandated for millions, and which now are known to have included possible side effects up to and including death, any questions about the schemes that influenced the 2020 election, such as the FBI's election interference actions, and more.
The report noted, "Facebook-founding Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg has recently echoed that accusation, saying senior Biden administration officials pressured his employees to inappropriately 'censor' content during the COVID-19 pandemic. Elon Musk, the owner of the social media platform that used to be known as Twitter, X, has accused the FBI of illegally coercing Twitter before his tenure to suppress a story about Hunter Biden.
Another was specific to the weaponization programs.
"The American people have witnessed the previous administration engage in a systematic campaign against its perceived political opponents, weaponizing the legal force of numerous Federal law enforcement agencies and the Intelligence Community against those perceived political opponents in the form of investigations, prosecutions, civil enforcement actions, and other related actions," it said.
