The revelations coming from Twitter’s new owner, Elon Musk, about the platform’s behind-the-scenes operation to suppress certain viewpoints has been “pretty horrifying” and shows that the platform was part of the efforts to interfere with the 2020 U.S. presidential election, according to former House Speaker Newt Gingrich.

In the span of a week, Musk has released troves of internal documents, shedding light on Twitter’s “secret blacklists” and censorship tools that worked to censor the unflattering coverage of Hunter Biden.
