Fact Checker Calls BS on Pro-Trump Senate Candidate's Claim that Google Is 'Hiding' His Website

Fact Checker Calls BS on Pro-Trump Senate Candidate's Claim that Google Is 'Hiding' His Website
CNN // Fox News

CNN fact-checker Daniel Dale rose to prominence during the Trump era for his comprehensive and timely fact checks of the former President's avalanche of lies and disinformation. Though Trump is no longer in office, Dale still fact checks President Joe Biden and combats disinformation online, with much of it coming from the right wing.

Hillbilly Elegy author J.D. Vance—who recently announced his candidacy for one of Ohio's Senate seats—became notable for quite a different set of reasons.


The pro-Trump writer and venture capitalist has defended the racist "Great Replacement" conspiracy theory, as well as Fox News host Tucker Carlson—another promoter of the Great Replacement. Vance recently apologized for tweets he posted during the 2016 campaign which were critical of Trump.

But Dale's and Vance's paths crossed this week after Vance claimed Google was "hiding" his website, the latest voice in a conservative chorus claiming Big Tech is working on behalf of Democrats to censor right-wing viewpoints.

Vance shared a video of a Fox News interview, where he claimed Google was "attacking" him, accusing Google of being "in bed" with the Chinese Communist Party.

Dale responded that Vance's assertion Google was "hiding" his website was "nonsense."

The exchange made waves on social media.



Dale wasn't the only one to demonstrate that Vance was lying.



Others claimed Vance's tweet was designed to get more people to google him.



Ohio's Senate election will be held November 8, 2022.

MAGA Senator Slammed After Scolding Americans For Whining About High Gas Prices Amid Iran War—And Wow

Kansas Republican Senator Roger Marshall chastised Americans for complaining about high gas prices and insisted they should consider that their "national security is even more important" than whatever blows are being dealt to their wallets at the gas pump.

Consumer prices are up 3.3% compared to a year ago, largely fueled by a surge in energy costs. The energy index jumped 10.9% in a single month as oil and gas prices climbed sharply. Amid the Iran war and the U.S. blockade of the Strait of Hormuz, oil has risen back to around $100 a barrel, pushing gasoline prices up by a record 25%.

X user @oatmilkanie shouted out an unidentified child who clearly got the memo when they boarded a plane and discovered that the child had written a note for the next person to sit in their seat, directly on the paper nausea bag that's snuggled in the seat pocket in front of the passenger's knees.
