Most Americans want probe into whether FBI censored social-media activity: Rasmussen

Nearly two-thirds of Americans agree that Congress should investigate whether the FBI played a role in muzzling information on social media platforms, according to a newly released poll.

A Rasmussen Reports survey posted Monday found 63% of likely U.S. voters favored such an investigation, while 22% were opposed and 15% were undecided.

The question was: “Should Congress investigate whether the FBI was involved in censoring information on social media sites?”

The poll was conducted after newly minted Twitter owner Elon Musk began releasing internal documents to independent journalists on the company’s communications with the FBI, the Justice Department and the Biden campaign amid the 2020 Hunter Biden laptop scandal.
