House Judiciary Committee Ranking Member Jim Jordan (R-OH) posted the entire text of an explosive New York Post story about Hunter and Joe Biden on his congressional website on Thursday, after Twitter censored a link to the House Judiciary GOP’s website where the story text was also posted.
The House Judiciary GOP account tweeted, along with a link to Jordan’s website: “Twitter censored our last link! So, we put the article on @Jim_Jordan‘s website. Nice try, @jack. But, we won’t stop. Click, share, and RT!”

By approximately Thursday 9:35 a.m. ET, clicking on the link to Jordan’s website did not trigger a warning from Twitter.
The move came after Twitter added a warning before allowing people to access the story text posted on the House Judiciary GOP’s website.
The warning said:
Warning: this link may be unsafe.

Twitter is now censoring a government site…you will never see Twitter post a warning like this against a Chinese government site. https://t.co/4h6n4unmHW pic.twitter.com/PUcMrpWLRe

Twitter also used the same warning for the Post‘s follow-up story on Thursday about Hunter Biden making a lucrative deal with a Chinese firm that benefitted his family.
Twitter also on Thursday began taking action against accounts for posting photos of Hunter Biden that were published by the Post.
I tried to post this tweet (unblurred) 30 minutes ago.
My account was instantly locked by @Twitter who demanded I delete it.
Why @jack?
Why are you protecting @JoeBiden’s son?
Are you in the pay of @TheDemocrats? pic.twitter.com/1VzeeKfesj
