After the release of the “Twitter Files” by Elon Musk, proof has surfaced that Arizona Governor-Elect Katie Hobbs’ office requested censorship of certain tweets. Communications director of Hobbs’ Secretary of State office emailed a nonprofit cybersecurity organization, Center for Internet Security (CIS), saying, “I’m flagging this Twitter account for your review,” with the subject line “Election Related Misinformation” dated January 7, 2021. CIS’s “misinformation” department then forwarded the message to Twitter, and about seven hours later the “misinformation” tweets had been removed. Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) is calling for a federal investigation.
