Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, a member of the House Oversight Committee, said that the story about Hunter Biden's laptop was half-fake.
According to Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, the hearing was unnecessary. She also stated that the concerns about the possible collusion between the government and Twitter are overwrought.
Instead of talking about the cost of various health care services, such as prescription drugs, she noted that the committee was talking about the half-fake laptop story of Hunter Biden.
She then cited a report in the Washington Post, which stated that the leaker of the story about Biden's laptop had been identified.
She then defended Twitter's censorship of the story about Biden's laptop. She stated that the New York Post should be blocked from its account.
According to her, the New York Post was not sharing the details of the story it had obtained. She noted that they were trying to publish the story on Twitter, but the platform prevented them from doing so.
House Republicans have stated that they intend to investigate the role of Big Tech in the suppression of the report about Hunter Biden's laptop. They also want to know how the story implicates the president. This week, they asked Hunter Biden, James Biden, and Eric Schwerin to turn over all of their company's records related to their overseas business transactions.
James Comer, the chairman of the House Oversight Committee, stated that if Biden were compromised by his deals with foreign entities, it could threaten national security.
Hunter Biden and the other individuals have until February 22 to respond to the House Republicans' request.
