Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX) is calling out Google and other Big Tech companies for engaging in election interference by actively suppressing search results regarding the failed assassination attempt on former president Trump.
This…is…insane.
@Google is engaged in active election interference.

George Orwell’s infamous “memory hole” described in his novel 1984 is quickly becoming a reality as factual information regarding Trump is being throttled and withheld.
When you google “assassination attempt on “Trump/Donald Trump/President Trump”
It does not come up in the auto suggested searches at the time of this post
The cover-up continues

AI has also been caught suppressing facts relating to the July 13 incident.
Users of AI platforms like Chat GPT and Meta AI also reported that initial queries regarding the July 13 attempt to assassinate Trump either produced no results or claims that not enough information was available.
Yet questions regarding Vice President Kamala Harris’s presidential campaign produced immediate and detailed results.
This is called election interference. pic.twitter.com/NuSn73iQgT

Some users have reported that after multiple queries, the reluctant AI platforms have been forced to admit that the attempt took place and provided varying degrees of details.

But the shell game of hiding information related to Trump doesn’t stop with downplaying the assassination attempt.
Google users who search for “Donald Trump” will also be treated to a buffet of puff pieces about Kamala Harris.
🚨 Google has altered their search results so that if you search for Donald Trump, you’ll EXCLUSIVELY get puff pieces about Kamala Harris
This is RIDICULOUS.
BLATANT election interference! pic.twitter.com/ViYpwYBJws

With platforms like X and a growing awareness regarding Big Tech’s determination to suppress information it finds inconvenient, there are still options for those who wish to be more fully informed.
We no longer have to pretend that Google and other Big Tech companies exist to help the public rather than their political cronies.
Far behind, hell, memory holing is election interference.
