Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey on Wednesday falsely told senators that his company lifted a ban on users tweeting articles from The Post's Hunter Biden exposé, despite the fact that the ban remained on one of The Post's bombshell stories and was only lifted after he made the claim.
"Anyone can tweet these articles," Dorsey told Sen. Ted Cruz about The Post's articles on emails implicating Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden in his son's work in China and Ukraine.
"Jack Dorsey of Twitter just told Senator Cruz that anyone could now share the NY Post's bombshell stories on Twitter. Dorsey is lying," tweeted Abigail Marone, a rapid response official on President Trump's re-election campaign, linking to a screen recording of the app blocking the post.
"Twitter is STILL blocking the URL for the NY Post story about the Biden's foreign corruption & China dealings," Marone wrote in a tweet shared by White House press secretary Kayleigh McEnany on her personal account.
Dorsey claimed repeatedly in his testimony that Twitter had lifted its ban on sharing The Post's articles, which Twitter initially censored under a "Hacked materials" policy, despite no evidence that the records were hacked.
"We're not blocking The Post, anyone can tweet these articles," Dorsey said.
Dorsey separately said the New York Post, which remains locked out of its Twitter account, "[has] to log into their account, which they can do at this minute, delete the original tweet, which fell under our original enforcement actions, and they can tweet the exact same material to the exact same article and it would go through.
