House Judiciary Chairman Jim Jordan (R-OH) filed a subpoena against a purported "misinformation" tracking group Wednesday, asking for records related to communications with the Biden administration over "the moderation of content online."

Jordan unveiled an investigation into the Center for Countering Digital Hate, a British nonprofit group, on Aug. 3, though a new letter dated Aug. 30 from the chairman reveals the group has "failed to produce" records to the committee since the probe began earlier this month.

DESANTIS SHOWCASES ABILITY TO GOVERN WITH HURRICANE RESPONSE

The CCDH has "failed to produce a single document" despite admissions to the committee and to the press that part of CCDH's work includes engaging directly with the Executive Branch and social media companies, according to a three-page letter provided to the Washington Examiner.

The subpoena aims to gain insight over how and to what extent the Executive Branch has "coerced" and "colluded" with Big Tech companies to censor online speech.

The committee's investigation along with other public reporting and discovery revealed in an ongoing federal court case known as Missouri v. Biden have "exposed" how the Biden administration has collaborated with Big Tech companies to censor certain content on social media that undermines "First Amendment principles," according to the letter, which was sent to CCDH's CEO Imran Ahmed.

"It is necessary for Congress to gauge the extent to which the federal government or one of its proxies worked with or relied upon CCDH to censor speech," Jordan wrote, adding that the committee's investigation includes "intermediaries who may or may not have had a full understanding of the government’s efforts and motivation."

"By declining to produce anything of substance in response to the Committee’s request, CCDH is hindering the Committee’s ability to fulfill its constitutional oversight obligations," Jordan's letter states.

A copy of the subpoena obtained by the Washington Examiner reveals Jordan is seeking All documents and communications between or among CCDH and the Executive Branch from Jan. 1, 2020 to now related to "moderation, deletion, suppression, restriction, or reduced circulation of content; the accuracy or truth of content; or the attribution of content to a foreign malign or state-sponsored influence operation."

Jordan's committee is also reaching back to the later years of the Obama administration, stating that it seeks records from Jan. 1, 2015 to the present about documents that show "all grants, contracts, or any funds received from the United States Government ... documentation that reflects those grants, contracts, or funds, relating in any way to CCDH's efforts concerning" the manipulation of online content.

The nonprofit group was also accused in a lawsuit earlier this month by X Corp., formerly Twitter, of making "false" claims after alleging hate speech spiked on the platform since Elon Musk's October takeover.
