Scrubbing Taiwan Video

STATUS:
Closed
President Biden invited Taiwanese officials to his Summit for Democracy and then appeared to have censored them. Digital Minister of Taiwan Audrey Tang presented at the Summit, but the video was conveniently cut out after the Minister showed a map that indicated that Taiwan is separate from China. The White House then reportedly contacted the State Department to remove this part of the video. The State Department claimed that this glitch with screen sharing was "an honest mistake." We've filed a FOIA request on this and we will get to the bottom of it.
