Established Fact
EIP and CISA collaborated to label and suppress high-profile statements by attorney Harmeet Dhillon and former Speaker Newt Gingrich concerning alleged denial of lawful observation in Philadelphia and related election-law issues. Their public legal arguments, grounded in sworn declarations from Pennsylvania poll watchers, were categorized as “delegitimization” and “disinformation,” and flagged for platform moderation. This re-framing of live legal disputes as “misinformation” impeded public awareness of evidentiary claims that were simultaneously being raised in courts and legislative hearings.
