What about that hot-topic in the GOP tent? Electoral interference?
//Irish and EU regulators aggressively “censored” social media coverage of Ireland’s 2024 general election and the recent presidential election, a panel of US politicians has claimed in a report.
//The report by the staff on the judiciary committee of the Republican-controlled US Congress alleges “harassment” against tech groups to undermine conservative and populist parties.
//It claims the European Commission and Irish media regulators in Coimisiún na Meán worked with “biased fact-checkers” and “left-wing” non-governmental organisations before the last two Irish elections.
Of course when European regulators do the bare minimum to prevent electoral interference, misinformation, and straight up electoral malfeasance to be propagated in opposition to our media and balance laws, it constitutes bigotry at the expense of the private American interests trying to control them!

Tbh Linehan was very lucky he was he was cleared of assaulting a teenage trans activist at Westminster Magistrates’ Court in September, instead getting away with a minor conviction for damaging her phone.
