Farron Balanced: Google, Does DJT Have Dementia? vs. Google, Does Joe Biden Have Dementia? [View all]




According to an investigation by The Verge, Google has allegedly been censoring searches involving "Donald Trump" and "dementia." The search engine no longer provides an AI summary, as it does for other searches, and instead says that this feature is not available. However, the AI summary shows up immediately when doing the same search for Joe Biden and possible dementia. The owners of Google were present at Trump's inauguration, so this isn't as surprising as you'd think - disgusting, yes, but not surprising. Farron Cousins discusses this issue.


I use Duck Duck Go as my search engine that front-ends Google to provide some level of privacy.

Note: When it breaks to the Ground News ad, it resumes at the 3:30 mark.
