The inevitable response from Twitter - they censored another one of Trump's tweets.
There is not a damn thing he can do about it and it's entirely legal for Twitter to be biased against any one of the posters to their platform - just as I have the right to kick one guest out of my house and let another one stay based purely on whether I like them or not.

This is hilarious!

What a bunch of babies these "right" wingers are, they're even more of a joke than the sheep following obama a decade ago!

Not one of them is smart enough to setup their own digital platform, so they just keep babbling about the leftists holding them down instead of learning some basic programming.

Idiots

Or are they worried that the legions of digital supporters are too stupid to figure out how to switch platforms...


This is all such a joke


There are right wing platforms, but why would I want to join an echo chamber. I guess it’s a liberal thing needing forced confirmation by drowning out opposing views.

And. Can you quote where you ever been concerned over Muslim extremists and China using Twitter for propaganda?



How China Built a Twitter Propaganda Machine Then Let It Loose on Coronavirus
ProPublica analyzed thousands of fake and hijacked Twitter accounts to understand how covert Chinese propaganda spreads around the globe.

www.propublica.org...

On Twitter, government spokespeople have unapologetically spread disinformation about the coronavirus, even promoting the conspiracy theory that Americans brought it to Wuhan.


Please show where Twitter has made any effort to fact check Chinese propaganda they way the targeted the president with real concern of the well being of the USA voting System.

So... the world had to destroy economies with lockdowns and infringe on basic rights based on wrong predictions/modeling. But Trump gets “fact checked” for wanting to prevent any possibility of voter fraud. Yeah. Doesn’t sound hypocritical at all.

I fail to see the point. If Twitter becomes liable for the content of 3rd party posts, they're going to censure even more.

Or, they stop censoring at all... you know, like they used to do, and are supposed to do in order to qualify for Section 230 protections.


They're going to have censure President Trump, if they could be held liable for his tweets.

Except, he will then sue them, because they lie about the veracity of his tweets far, far more than he ever stretches the truth in their content.

This is 2020 not the 1950's , mccarthyist witch hunts with no base in reality have no place in a functioning Democracy

Ummm.... but, you do know, it turned out McCarthy was right, and we are now seeing the results of that truth - the entire federal bureaucracy - but especially the State Department - is riddled with Socialist/Communist/Fascist pricks that need to be strung up on the public gallows.


the road to dictatorship is a slippery one.

Isn't it though?


Twitter did nothing but fact check his claim

Their 'fact check' was nothing but lies.

More yeah for Twitter.




In fact, the lawmakers could have gone further to ask why, as Bloomberg reported last year, Twitter has been training Chinese officials in how amplify their messages—giving them special insights into how to fully exploit a platform that is blocked off to their own citizens.

Why would you aid China in anyway?

I don't think politicians (or grown adults for that matter) should be so desperately active on social media, it's pretty pathetic.

i have no idea what you're trying to convey here.

either way, social media shouldn't be used by politicians, it's clearly a massive problem...

US President Donald Trump has signed an executive order aimed at the major social media platforms, denouncing the tech behemoths as “tantamount to a monopoly.” The order may alter Section 230, which protects them from litigation.

the president added that US Attorney General William Barr will also be tasked with working with states to enforce legal restrictions on social media firms.

YES! This is awesome!
Big tech firms and social media giants have been allowed for far too long to get away with blatant political discrimination and censorship, towards both their users and their employees!
This is the USA, not communist China or North Korea, and these companies better remember that!


Do i understand this correctly? Trump has made it easier for himself to spread his BS unchecked, and people think this is a good thing!

This is the USA now hey, where only right wing propoganda (which ironically i see posted several times a day on here) is allowed.

They reside inside the United States. Therefore the law of the land applies to them. If I was trump I would have signed an executive order to force all private companies that reside inside the U.S to comply with the United States Constitution, and if they didn't follow the law of the land, then they would be labeled as TREASON.

Also twitter, Google, youtube and facebook are technically complying with the Chinese Government which is a country that hates the United States and it's constitution. That counts as espionage and also treason.

I promise you, these companies would not have survived the founding father's era. In the old days, there was no executive orders, treason was punishable through the death sentence.


They have an option, they can always move to china. Just saying

Twitter is complying with the Constitution. They're doing business as they wish within the confines of American law.

Trump probably isn't, but with his mental state, I dont think he can be held legally responsible.

How does this play with the recent decision to force public figures(AOC) to unblock people due to their audience and reach?
The ruling set a precedent that any elected official who blocks a constituent on Twitter could be found guilty of violating that constituent's First Amendment rights.

Does this not deny access to a fact-checked opinion(based on a CNN article ignoring the past week's voting fraud stories) that constituents have a right to see?

All I can say is that I have been banned on these social networks for simply mentioning benghazi in 2016. Even though that was a true story, big tech went all out to silence it. I came back with a new account but also gave them a public notice:



So far it has worked. I let them know that I know the supreme law and that I don't apply to fictions. if they tresspass unto me again, the law no longer applies to them and they will be held accountable by the supreme authority. (The being that runs this place called earth.)

Trump has a weakness, and that weakness is his ignorance of the supreme law. The very law that inspired the United States constitution. aka Natural Divine Law.

That is also why Trump hasn't been able to jail Hillary. He is ignorant of the law; however; She is not. What trump needs to do is put together a SOVEREIGN court of Justice. A council of 12 that knows the law. This Sovereign court of justice would be above the supreme court of justice. Though the supreme court can be replaced by the sovereign court. Though that isn't necessary if the supreme court also applies the law. Only then can Hillary stand trial for her crimes.

The Hillary case is explained here:
ReKhan: Penetrating Hillary’s Sovereign Immunity


Without the Law, Trump is powerless. And the powers that be knows that.

If anyone tried to silence the Benghazi story they failed miserably.

What was it ... 20, 30 Congressional investigations into it?

Yeah, I'm sure your PUBLIC NOTICE really made 'em quake.

Especially if you sent 'em the video.

My friend, all I ask is for you to look into the law. It is much more than just words written. It is LITERALLY the Holy Grail of Arthurian legends. There is power when one knows the law because protection is given by the supreme authority. The supreme authority is the being men call God. If you study it, learn it and apply it heartwise, "Something" will make itself known. That is when you realize that there are things in this universe that mainstream media will never tell you. Just because you can't see it, it does not mean that it isn't there.


Cheat Sheet Mark V- The Holy Grail

I will say that it took me years to understand the law. But through various testings, all i can say is that I am now in atonement and I do not want to disappoint.

No man is above the law.

SoulSurfer please allow me to say that I appreciate what seems like real concern on your part.

I do hope God* sends you the help you need. Sincerely.

*which for me is also called Random Chance, but may take other forms and have other names.

He did, he gave me the law. The man known as Jesus Christ (Yahshua) also taught the law.




Matthew 22 King James Version (KJV)

36 Master, which is the great commandment in the law?

37 Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind.

38 This is the first and great commandment.

39 And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.

40 On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets.


This is basically Natural Divine law. We are responsible for our actions.
Slavery without consent is against the law. Even JUDGE Andrew Napolitano is aware of this.

But thanks for trying to show that I am the one that needs help. Even though I have clear knowledge of the TRUTH.
