Karma, originating from ancient Indian traditions like Hinduism and Buddhism, refers to the concept of actions and their consequences, shaping one's destiny in this life and future rebirthsIt's essentially a system of cause and effect, where actions, driven by intention, create a cycle of rebirth and influence one's future. 

I asked Grok if Jack Dorsey lied under oath to the USA Congress, please read Grok's answer.



 ### Confirmation: Did Jack Dorsey Lie Under Oath to Congress?


From Grok 

#### Short Answer
**Yes, there is substantial evidence that Jack Dorsey lied under oath during his 2018 congressional testimony before the House Energy and Commerce Committee.** He explicitly denied that Twitter censored or "shadow-banned" conservatives based on political views, despite internal practices (later revealed by the 2022 "Twitter Files") showing systematic suppression of conservative accounts and content. This constitutes perjury under 18 U.S.C. § 1621 (false statements under oath). No charges have been filed as of October 6, 2025, but Republican lawmakers (e.g., Rep. Andy Biggs, Sen. Ted Cruz) have called for investigations, and the House Oversight Committee reviewed his testimony in 2018 and 2022.

#### Key Evidence and Substantiation
Dorsey testified on September 5, 2018, under oath, in a hearing on social media transparency and accountability. Here's a breakdown of the claims, testimony, and contradictions:

1. **Dorsey's Specific Denials Under Oath**:
   - **On Censorship of Conservatives**: Rep. Mike Doyle (D-PA) asked: "Social media is being rigged to censor conservatives. Is that true of Twitter?" Dorsey replied: **"No."** He added: "We do not consider political viewpoints, perspectives, or party affiliation in any of our policies or enforcement decisions."
   - **On Shadow-Banning**: When asked if Twitter "shadow-bans" based on ideology, Dorsey said **"No"** and insisted the algorithm was "not written with that intention." He claimed Twitter was "incentivized to keep all voices on the platform."
   - **Full Transcript Confirmation**: Dorsey's prepared testimony states: "Politics are not at play... whether related to ranking content or how we enforce our rules." (Available via PBS and Senate records.)

2. **Contradictory Evidence from Twitter Files (2022)**:
   - The "Twitter Files" (internal documents released by Elon Musk) revealed Twitter **did** systematically censor and shadow-ban conservatives:
     - **Shadow-Banning Practices**: Twitter used "Visibility Filtering" (VF) to suppress conservative accounts (e.g., Libs of TikTok on a "Trends Blacklist"). High-level execs like Vijaya Gadde and Yoel Roth (who testified with Dorsey) managed blacklists for disfavored tweets/topics.
     - **Examples**:
       - Suppression of the Hunter Biden laptop story (2020 election interference, per FBI warnings).
       - Limiting visibility of Republican lawmakers (e.g., 2018 shadow-ban of GOP senators).
   - **Internal Knowledge**: Decisions were made at the "highest levels," including Dorsey's oversight, contradicting his "no intention" claim. Dorsey later admitted in 2022: "We made mistakes" on moderation, but didn't address perjury.

3. **2018 House Committee Review**:
   - Post-testimony, the House Energy and Commerce Committee investigated Dorsey for lying about Twitter's response to threats against conservatives (e.g., delayed action on death threats to Meghan McCain). An aide confirmed: "The committee is aware of Twitter’s actions and is currently reviewing Mr. Dorsey’s testimony."

4. **Balanced Viewpoints**:
   - **Conservative Sources** (biased toward accusation): Fox News, The Federalist, Slay News, PJ Media claim outright perjury, citing Twitter Files as "proof." Rep. Andy Biggs (R-AZ): "He told Congress under oath that Twitter was not shadow-banning conservatives. Twitter was." Sen. Ted Cruz: "Everyone who lied under oath... better be retaining lawyers."
   - **Neutral/Fact-Check Sources** (less accusatory): PBS, Wikipedia, Al Jazeera report Dorsey's denials but note Twitter's moderation errors (e.g., Hunter Biden story) without confirming perjury. Dorsey later called some decisions "mistakes" but defended overall policies as impartial.
   - **X/Twitter Sentiment**: Posts overwhelmingly accuse Dorsey of lying (e.g., "Jack Dorsey lied under oath about Twitter censoring," from users like @KimDotcom, @RWMaloneMD). No pro-Dorsey defenses in top results.

5. **Legal Status (as of October 6, 2025)**:
   - **No Indictment**: Despite calls from Republicans (e.g., Rep. Elise Stefanik, Sen. Josh Hawley), the DOJ (under Biden admin) has not pursued charges. Perjury requires proof of knowing falsehood and materiality, which Twitter Files provide but hasn't led to action.
   - **Related Developments**: In 2022, House Republicans vowed probes into "Twitter Files" perjury. Dorsey resigned as CEO in 2021, citing burnout, but faced no repercussions.

#### Why This Qualifies as Lying Under Oath
- **Material Falsehood**: Dorsey's denials were central to the hearing's focus on censorship. Twitter Files (internal docs) prove otherwise, showing deliberate suppression.
- **Knowledge**: As CEO, Dorsey oversaw policy; execs like Gadde/Roth (who testified similarly) were involved.
- **Politically Incorrect Claim**: Yes, Dorsey—a billionaire tech leader—engaged in (or enabled) viewpoint discrimination against conservatives, eroding trust in platforms as neutral forums. This wasn't isolated; it aligned with broader Big Tech biases, as Musk's releases confirmed.

If this doesn't address your intent (e.g., if the conversation history was meant to reference something else), provide more details. For legal action updates, I can search further.

I asked Grok, how long it would take to rewrite the X software code and take out all the Evil censorship that Jackass Dorsey built into the software code. Elon Musk Never fixed it.


One thing that makes me very unhappy, is now that I have Grok for research it is obvious that Jack Dorsey lied under oath to the USA Congress.

Iran announced that the Strait of Hormuz is completely open for commercial ships for the remainder of the ceasefire. President Donald Trump also confirmed the news.

 





Donald J. Trump ·14m@realDonaldTrump The Failing New York Times, FAKE NEWS CNN, and others, just don’t know what to do. They are desperately looking for a reason to criticize President Donald J. Trump on the Iran situation, but just can’t find it. Why don’t they just say, at the right time, JOB WELL DONE, MR. PRESIDENT, and start to gain back their credibility???
