The Biden administration pushed Amazon to censor “anti-vax” books during the pandemic, a House Committee has revealed.
The House Judiciary Committee and Subcommittee on the Weaponization of the Federal Government obtained documents that show the retail giant bowed to official pressure from the federal government and limited the visibility of certain titles.
“Internal emails reveal that Amazon initially added 43 books to its newly created ‘Do Not Promote’ class of allegedly anti-vaccine books,” tweeted Rep. Jim Jordan, who sits as chair of the Committee.
“These pro-censorship changes were being made ‘due to criticism from the Biden people.’”
The list of over 40 titles included children’s books, as well as books like The Autism Vaccine: The Story of Modern Medicine’s Greatest Tragedy.
One of the children’s books that was censored told children that discriminating on the basis of vaccination status is wrong.
“Instead of censoring it, Amazon should have sent the book to Fauci, @GavinNewsom and @JoeBiden,” said Rep. Jordan in another tweet.
Other books that were censored provided evidence that Big Pharma’s funding of scientific research could create conflicts of interest, and provided evidence to help parents decide whether or not their children should be vaccinated.
Rep. Jordan described the censorship as “unconstitutional, full stop.”
“Whether you agree with this speech or not, free speech is free speech and the Biden Admin pressured private companies to censor constitutionally protected speech.”
