Google tries to hide congressman’s call to ‘kill’ Trump ‘movement’

Congressman Tim Ryan (D-OH) last week used violent rhetoric against Trump supporters while calling for unity and bipartisanship during an interview on MSNBC. 

“How do we fix all of these broken systems?” Ryan asked, before calling to “kill and confront” his political opponents. “Some of those answers will come from Republicans, not the extremists that we are dealing with every single day. We’ve got to kill and confront that movement, but working with normal mainstream Republicans, that’s going to be really, really important,” Ryan said on MSNBC. 

The legislator did not clarify if “that movement” excluded its members and supporters, but he launched into a call for bipartisanship and healing. 

“I’m saying exhausted majority — Democrats, Republicans, Independents against the extremists, leading an era of reform around reconciliation so we can heal this country and move into the future,” he continued. 

But one would not know that from Google. For days after Ryan’s remark, a search for “congressman says to kill MAGA” or “congressman says to kill extremists” not only showed no news stories mentioning the remark but yielded only results that were anti-Republican and pro the Biden regime. 

In fact, Google shows in first placements headlines as old as last year about a Republican congressman who tweeted a photoshopped anime video about him killing Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) and swinging swords at Biden. 8 out of 10 results try to portray Republicans as “extremists” and “White nationalists”. 

Even now, as of this writing, a search for those phrases yields one relevant result, which is from Fox News. Otherwise, it is not until the sixth page of results that one sees further coverage of Ryan’s remarks. Until then, results are almost entirely about January 6^th, “violent Right-wing extremists,” or “GOP White nationalists”. 

A search for the same phrases on Duck Duck Go, however, yields mostly recent coverage of Ryan’s remarks; a search through Presearch yields nearly half relevant results; and a search on the Brave search engine yields only one relevant result, though it takes first placement. 

It is not because there is scant coverage of Ryan’s rhetoric, even among the mainstream media. The story was covered by The Hill, NPR, The Independent, and MSN.
