#shorts On 7/13/2023, during U.S. House hearing, Chairman Rep. Jim Jordan asked FTC Chair Lina Khan, “to go after. There would you go after. Did you… is your attack on Twitter harassment on Twitter? Is that based on the fact that all kinds of Democrats have asked you to do this? And, frankly, some things that you’ve written about dealing with “disinformation”? Dkoes that have anything to do with it?

Khan: Congressman, we make determinations about whether the law was violated.

Jordan: The statement from Chairman Nadler, the statements from the letter, the press release in the letter from seven Democrat senators, that had no impact. That’s not why you’re doing it?

Khan: Absolutely not. We look very closely at the specific matter at hand. Again,

Jordan: 12 demand letters in 10 weeks, telling the independent assessor, “Hey, put your finger on the scale. This is the results we want.” That’s not harassment, and it has nothing to do with the fact that every Democrat in this town seems to be telling you to go after Twitter.

Khan: Our focus is on protecting people’s privacy and security. Twitter has sensitive data on 150 million Americans, including private messages. We need to make sure, especially given its history going all the way back to 2010, we’re doing everything to make sure Twitter is complying with the order. That’s fine, don’t put your finger on the scale, and don’t attack the First Amendment rights of journalists.
