   Forget stolen ballots or Krakens that never arrive. If anything changed   
   the outcome of the 2020 election, it was Big Tech interference — and   
   there’s nothing to say it won’t happen again in 2024.   
      
   Close to home, we saw the suppression of The Post’s October 2020 story   
   on Hunter Biden’s laptop by Twitter and Facebook, which were manipulated   
   by embedded FBI operatives, and kept Biden voters in the dark about the   
   nature of the man they were supporting.   
      
   In the landmark free speech case, Missouri v. Biden, we saw how the   
   federal government secretly coerced social media to censor speech that   
   dissents from official thinking on everything from the origins of   
   COVID-19, climate change and the efficacy of masks to gender identity   
   and the war in Ukraine.   
      
   ‘Mind control machine’   
   Then there is the $1 trillion multinational tech monopoly Google, which   
   has been described as the ultimate “mind control machine.”   
      
   Google is supposed to be a neutral platform and enjoys all the legal   
   protections of a public utility, much like the pipes delivering water to   
   our homes.   
      
   Instead, its algorithms secretly manipulate search rankings to control   
   opinions, whether it’s what you buy or what you know about a politician.   
      
   It’s hard to pin down Google’s bias because search results are   
   ephemeral, but MRC Free Speech America gave it a shot this week, by   
   recording Google search results for “Republican presidential campaign   
   websites” on the eve of Wednesday night’s Republican primary debate.   
      
   Lo and behold, only two candidates popped up on the first, crucial page   
   of search results Monday, and only one was a Republican: Will Hurd, a   
   little-known never-Trumper from Texas, who doesn’t even have enough   
   support to make it onto the debate stage.   
      
   There was no sign of Donald Trump, Ron DeSantis, Nikki Haley, Vivek   
   Ramaswamy, Mike Pence, Tim Scott or Chris Christie.   
      
   But there was one other candidate who showed up on Page 1 of the   
   Republican search results: fringe Democrat Marianne Williamson, whose   
   RealClearPolitics average doesn’t even reach 5%. Maybe that’s Google’s   
   idea of “balance.”   
      
   It was a different story when the MRC searched for “Democrat   
   presidential campaign websites.”   
      
   Here, the results were logical, with front-runner Joe Biden’s campaign   
   website topping Google’s first search page.   
      
   Williamson scored another appearance, with her website slotting into   
   number two behind Biden. But Biden’s most dangerous challenger, Robert   
   F. Kennedy Jr., was nowhere to be seen on the first page, despite the   
   fact his RealClearPolitics average is 15%, and his support is as high as   
   25% among Democrats, according to the latest Rasmussen poll.   
      
   “The Office of Hillary Rodham Clinton” did appear on Google’s first   
   page, in 10th place, with “Elizabeth Warren for Senate” in 14th.   
   Ironically, just above Warren was a link to a report on an Iranian   
   website: ”Google Hiding Websites of Trump, Other Biden challengers.”   
      
   Skewed first page   
   The MRC points out that less than 1% of users ever click past the first   
   page of search results. If you are not on the first page, you basically   
   don’t exist in Google’s world.   
      
   Its analysis is just a snapshot of a moment, although it also tried the   
   experiment on Sept. 20 with similar results.   
      
   But for real science, research psychologist Dr. Robert Epstein, a   
   California Democrat with a Harvard PhD, has preserved a database of 42   
   million ephemeral search results gathered from 8,000 registered voters,   
   who gave him permission to record their every Google interaction.   
      
   He also finds that Google elevates liberal views and stifles dissenters,   
   in a way which will have an impact on undecided voters in the 2024   
   election.   
      
   It’s not hard to see whom Google favors for president in 2024: the same   
   guy it rooted for in 2020, Biden.   
      
   Despite the censorship outrages revealed in Missouri v. Biden, the   
   “disinformation” industry is doubling down, and the constellation of   
   NGOs and universities which act as censorship proxies to allow the   
   federal government to skirt the First Amendment are gearing up to   
   interfere in another election.   
      
   They get away with it because, as a RealClearPolitics poll found this   
   week, nearly half of Democrats (47%) support censorship, and think   
   speech should be legal “only under certain circumstances.”   
      
   One-third of Democrats (34%) think Americans have “too much freedom,”   
   and 75% think government has a responsibility to censor “hateful” social   
   media posts. A majority of Democrats (52%) approve of the government   
   censoring social media posts “under the rubric of protecting national   
   security.”   
      
   If the poll is even half-accurate, these are terrifying results, and   
   they give Biden censors the moral mandate to do it again in 2024.   
      
   White House attack dog   
   Proof comes in the form of Rob Flaherty, exposed in Missouri v. Biden as   
   the Biden White House’s biggest bully. Federal Judge Terry Doughty   
   singled out the White House director of digital strategy as a serial   
   First Amendment transgressor.   
      
   He was a “key player in the Biden White House’s censorship enterprise,”   
   according to Sen. Eric Schmitt (R-Mo.), who, as Missouri attorney   
   general, launched the free-speech lawsuit which is now headed to the   
   Supreme Court.   
      
   Schmitt compiled a list of Censor Boy’s greatest hits on a recent   
   Twitter thread, which included Flaherty accusing Facebook of “political   
   violence” for failing to censor speech to his liking.   
      
   “Are you guys f–king serious?” he wrote in one email to Meta executives.   
   “I want an answer on what happened here and I want it today.”   
      
   Flaherty even demanded that private conversations between WhatsApp users   
   about the COVID vaccine be censored.   
      
   The White House should have fired Flaherty and pretended he had gone   
   rogue.   
      
   Instead, Joe Biden hired him for his 2024 campaign and praised him as   
   someone who “operated with unparalleled creativity, innovative spirit   
   and a bias toward action.”   
      
   Shameless. But who’s going to stop them?
