She said Stanford’s Dr. Jay Bhattacharya argued that COVID lockdowns would harm children, and as a result, Twitter "secretly" put him on a "Trends Blacklist," preventing his tweets from trending.

Other users who were blacklisted included talk show host and Fox News Contributor Dan Bongino and conservative activist Charlie Kirk.
