According to an AP News report, the hearing set to start by February 8 will look into why the Hunter Biden story from the New York Post back in October 2020 was hidden by Twitter from the public. It will now investigate the Hunter Biden story and controversy, looking into what happened before the November 2020 elections. 

It would also invite three former Twitter executives to testify and explain their side or hand in what happened, those known for facing unemployment or leaving their posts after Elon Musk took over.

What is the Hunter Biden Scandal from 2020?

The story from The New York Post from October 2020 was among the first to release the "Secret e-mails" from Hunter Biden's laptop, one that talked about election tampering, as claimed by the sources. 

This particular story was also blocked by Twitter from running the platform, and it was then led by co-founder and former CEO Jack Dorsey. Now, this story will be out in the open, and ex-Twitter executives will take the stand to explain their hands on the past situation.

Twitter's Controversies

There were many hidden happenings from Twitter's past administration, and the now Chief Twit is all hands on deck to uncover these mysteries, especially from a known whistleblower. The infamous "Twitter Files" from Matt Taibbi talked about the many secrets that were hidden by the former executives of the company, now coming to light.

One of the earliest revelations regarding the Twitter Files was the Hunter Biden controversy where the leaker claimed that it was in his possession and would also reveal it to the world.

Apart from this issue, the controversial files also claimed that it has more to share with the world, and also talked about how co-founder and former CEO, Jack Dorsey, has some dirt. 

While the Twitter Files were all about what the social media hid from the world and was the first to do so, House probes are now looking into having it all out in the open. This Hunter Biden controversy would now be public knowledge and look into why Twitter hid the story from publishing on the platform, with former executives to testify under oath.
