MP Slams Raskin in the EU: ‘Jim Jordan should be speaking here instead of you’

Disgusting scenes unfolded as Jamie Raskin pushed ahead with what critics call yet another cheap political stunt.

With Americans increasingly tuning out his baseless accusations — and even the White House reportedly branding him as having ‘zero credibility’ — Raskin took his outrage campaign across the Atlantic to the European Parliament.

At a meeting of the European Parliament’s Committee on the Internal Market and Consumer Protection (IMCO) on Tuesday, March 24, 2026, Raskin launched into an 18-minute tirade targeting President Donald J. Trump, the MAGA movement, and the European Right.

Throwing his weight behind the bloc’s controversial censorship framework, the so-called Digital Services Act, Raskin claimed: “Their obsession with attacking your tech rules serves one purpose: to dismantle any laws worldwide that might limit far-right propaganda, disinformation, and hate speech.”

But he was swiftly put in his place.

German AfD MEP Petr Bystron tore into Raskin’s remarks, blasting what he described as a dishonest attempt to promote European censorship. In a scathing rebuke, Bystron argued that it should have been Jim Jordan — not Raskin — who was invited to address the committee.

Citing explosive findings presented by Jordan before the House Judiciary Committee, Bystron warned: “We have serious problems with freedom of expression here and with election manipulation in recent years.”

He went on to claim that the European Commission has played a dual role — censoring opposition voices of legitimate, democratically elected politicians on social media, while at the same time funding mainstream media outlets to spread its propaganda.

According to Bystron, eleven years of communication between the Commission and major US Big Tech companies have now been proven — and, based on these facts, he concluded that there are indeed serious problems.

Bystron also vented his anger over Raskin’s invitation to the committee, fuming: “After this is discussed in the Judiciary Committee of the House of Representatives, you invite this person to advise us here in the European Parliament — a multiple failed Trump hater — as he used ten minutes of his speaking time to spread hate tirades against Trump.”

He added that it was disastrous that Raskin had portrayed the United States as a dictatorship, likening it to regimes such as North Korea and Iran.
