The right is positively giddy over the so-called Twitter files. House Republicans called a press conference to declare that their very top priority will be investigating Hunter Biden’s laptop. Rep. Elise Stefanik promised in July that if given the majority, Republicans would get “accountability” from the “Biden crime family.” The victim narrative — that big tech rigged the 2020 election by suppressing the Hunter laptop story — is all the rage on the right.
”We’re learning in real-time how Twitter colluded to silence the truth about Hunter Biden’s laptop just days before the 2020 presidential election,” Rep. Kevin McCarthy tweeted, and the whole right-wing chorus has sung along. They haven’t been this energized since the FBI executed a search warrant at Mar-a-Lago.
