On Wednesday night, White House Press Secretary Kayleigh McEnany told reporters that President Donald Trump will sign an executive order regarding social media and Big Tech companies, following his public battle with Twitter after the social media platform added a “fact-check” to his tweets.
“Very critical” is an understatement.
Twitter included a blue “fact-check” on Trump’s tweets attacking Gov. Gavin Newsom (D-Calif.) for capitalizing on the coronavirus crisis to unilaterally change California voting laws, claiming the president spread utter falsehoods about vote-by-mail. Yet Trump was far from alone in voicing such concerns, and the California Republican Party — which is suing Newsom — cited many experts and news reports demonstrating the abuse vote-by-mail enables.
The president accused Twitter of attempting to interfere in the 2020 presidential election.
“[Twitter] is now interfering in the 2020 Presidential Election. They are saying my statement on Mail-In Ballots, which will lead to massive corruption and fraud, is incorrect, based on fact-checking by Fake News CNN and the Amazon Washington Post. Twitter is completely stifling FREE SPEECH, and I, as President, will not allow it to happen!”
Is This Twitter Exec With a Long History of Anti-Trump Tirades the Force Behind the Trump ‘Fact-Check’?
Trump continued on Wednesday.
“Republicans feel that Social Media Platforms totally silence conservatives voices. We will strongly regulate, or close them down, before we can ever allow this to happen. We saw what they attempted to do, and failed, in 2016. We can’t let a more sophisticated version of that happen again,” he tweeted. “Just like we can’t let large scale Mail-In Ballots take root in our Country. It would be a free for all on cheating, forgery and the theft of Ballots. Whoever cheated the most would win. Likewise, Social Media. Clean up your act, NOW!!!!”

Twitter’s decision to take sides in a contentious political battle — which has a legal aspect — arguably undermines the argument for its protection under Section 230. But it remains unclear exactly what kind of drastic action Trump can take by executive order on this issue.
Voting by MAIL is FRAUD . . . And those PERPETRATING it should spend a LENGTHY PRISON sentence in Federal PRISON. One Wary Patriot.
In Colorado we have been doing mail in voting for years, I don’t see how mail in voting is any more susceptible to fraud than polling place fraud, the way to keep voting fraud from happening is to have polling observers from all the stakeholders monitoring the count! And I think that’s what happens at a lot of the polling places, if not it should!
He’s always need a liar and it’s about time he was exposed!
Shut them down! When they join sides with evil, it’s time to protect our country if they cry fire in a crowded theater and laugh at everyone who reacts to it.
What does “Twitter is immune from liability for what users post” have to do with anything? Trump should be able to post without bias “fact-checking”!
close em down Donald,bloody hypocritical biased bastards
NWO, deep state, Hollywood and radical political parties are destroying freedom of conservative and general public as shown by people who want to control and eliminate those they deem In the way for the radicals who want control ☠️????????
