Update (1305ET): Fireworks ensued during today’s Congressional grilling of Twitter execs by Republicans on the House Oversight Committee, while AOC had a total meltdown while lying through her teeth.
During one tense exchange, Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) interrupted an exchange between Rep. Jimmy Gomez (D-CA) and Twitter’s former head of Trust and Safety, asking: “Who made you in charge of what’s true and what’s false?”

“You permanently banned my Twitter account but you allowed child porn all over Twitter,” she continued.

Greene was permanently suspended in January 2022 after tweeting VAERS data about Covid-19 vaccine deaths.
Meanwhile, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) told outright lies about the Twitter account “Libs of TikTok,” stating that Boston Children’s Hospital never advertised hysterectomies for children.
AOC says that @libsoftiktok lied about Boston Children’s Hospital giving hysterectomys to children.
AOC: “That account is still on the platform isn’t it?”
Roth: “Regrettably, yes it is” pic.twitter.com/o64LZpO55o

Which they totally did…
The story about Boston Children’s Hospital was also not a lie.
Chaya literally posted a video on their YouTube to her Twitter.https://t.co/YB71gc5DSM

The great irony here is that @AOC is lying. Libs of TikTok has simply reported the facts about what these hospitals have said about their own services. It’s all documented. But this is what they do — they use misinformation to smear you as being a source of it. https://t.co/b5rRlIrFDz

She also claimed the NY Post’s Hunter Biden laptop story was “alleged,” and that the Post should have shared more information about their sourcing for the story (they did).
Rep. @AOC repeatedly refers to @nypost‘s reporting on Hunter’s laptop contents as “alleged,” then blames the Post for Twitter censoring them, saying they should have shared more info about their sourcing on this “fake story” pic.twitter.com/1k56oK8Llh

The correlation between AOC’s theatrics and her lying is uncanny.

The House Oversight Committee on Wednesday is hearing testimony from three former, top Twitter employees over the company’s handling of the Hunter Biden laptop story.
House Oversight Chairman James Comer (R-K), who has launched a broad investigation into the Biden family dealings, is probing the social media giant following revelations from new Twitter owner Elon Musk, who released internal communications from Twitter staff about their censorship efforts.
