McCarthy’s remarks came after the two social media giants prevented users from sharing the article on their personal accounts and Twitter locked the account of the New York Post.

“Censoring speech to silence political opponents is what you’d expect from countries like China, North Korea, or Iran,” McCarthy wrote in a tweet. “Not American companies like Twitter and Facebook—against one of the nation’s largest newspapers. #StopTheBias!!!”
