House Subpoenas Google Over Biden Admin's Alleged Content Moderation Interference

The U.S. House Judiciary Committee subpoenaed Alphabet (Google's parent company) to investigate communications with the Biden administration regarding content moderation policies. Chairman Jim Jordan also requested similar communications with outside groups. The subpoena targets content restrictions on topics such as Donald Trump, Elon Musk, COVID-19, and other conservative viewpoints. While Meta previously admitted to pressure from the Biden administration, Google denies similar actions, claiming its policies are independently enforced and committed to free expression.
