Three former Twitter executives have been called to testify on Hunter Biden’s laptop before Congress by the House Oversight Committee, according to reports.
The executives, who have yet to be named, will appear before the Republican-led Committee for testimony on February 8.
According to Fox News, they will testify regarding the company’s decision to censor the New York Post’s article on Hunter Biden’s laptop in the run-up to the 2020 election.
While the executives have yet to be named, Jack Dorsey was Twitter’s CEO at the time the story was censored.
Twitter’s new boss Elon Musk has since revealed with the Twitter Files that former executives Vijaya Gadde and Yoel Roth were instrumental in the decision to block the laptop story.
Since taking over the company, Musk fired Gadde almost immediately.
Roth left weeks after as Musk cracked down on censorship at the company.
Dorsey stepped down as Twitter’s CEO on November 29, 2021.
He was replaced by former CTO Parag Agrawal, who took over as CEO effective immediately
The hearing will be the first major session for the Oversight Committee under chairman James Comer (R-KY).
Comer has engaged in multiple investigations of the Biden family.
The committee is also seeking answers regarding the classified documents found inside Democrat President Joe Biden’s Wilmington, Delaware home.
