Top Homeland Security Official: Tech Censorship Is ‘Grave Threat To National Security’

DHS Deputy Secretary Ken Cuccinelli, the No. 2 official at the department, warned Monday that cancel culture and censorship from tech companies are serious threats to U.S. national security.

Cuccinelli “said it’s not just Twitter’s decision last week to shut down the account of the department’s border chief after he posted a message saying that the border wall can stop gang members and murderers,” The Washington Times reported. “He pointed to Hootsuite, a social media company that canceled its contract with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement in September after company employees rebelled at the association.”
