Trump Calls for Prosecution of Google Over Search Results

September 27, 2024 at 2:49 pm EDT By Taegan Goddard Leave a Comment

“Donald Trump called for Google to be criminally prosecuted for what he called the company’s bias toward his election opponent Vice President Kamala Harris in online search results,” CNBC reports.

Wrote Trump, on Truth Social: “It has been determined that Google has illegally used a system of only revealing and displaying bad stories about Donald J. Trump, some made up for this purpose while, at the same time, only revealing good stories about Comrade Kamala Harris.”
