The pandemic binder comparison was a downright LOL moment. It felt like a dick measuring competition. Who's plan is bigger: Obama or Trumps!!??
So. Freaking. Stupid.
And then when asked about content...crickets.

So, apparently last night Trump (and his administration) fired another IG. This one was, reportedly, investigating Pompeo.
Have to see how/if this blows up into anything....

Man, reading how civil the comments in the other thread were in the early pages (from like August 2015) to the ones at the end (February 2020) is a real trip. It's sad how divisive this has gotten (and no, Trump is not to blame to either side behaving that way).

Trumps numbers are sinking faster then the titanic, even the ultra conservative Rasmussen has him at 42% today. Uhoh, and now hes planning on taking action with EO against social media. Trump claims twitter fact checking him violates freedom of speech then threatens free speech by threatening to take down social media. Oh the irony, if you made this into a movie nobody would believe this shit.

Twitter is a privately owned social media site that Trump voluntarily uses. I'm no Constitutional expert but I don't think the right to free speech even applies to such a platform.

Traditionally, it has not. BUT, he's making a bid, since there are protections these social media outlets are offered (so they don't have to take responsibility for the content housed on them), to say you can either use these protections and it's the wild wild west (no modding, no fact checking, no deleting content no matter how awful or untrue it is)...or you can be a publisher, get involved with "moderating" content, and then have to take responsibility for everything that's posted everywhere.
I suspect that position is untenable with the courts. But he's going to try via EO.
He's essentially complaining about free speech....and taking action to stifle free speech. Because he got fact checked and didn't like it.

First Obamagate (which everybody knows what it's about since it's so obvious) and now Twittergate.

I believe you are probably right, being it's multinational.

Exactly, screens about his free speech being violated while simultaneously trying to undermine it. News flash for him though, it wasn't violated, the past is still there. He just got fact checked.

Twitter also flagged his recent post about the protests in Minneapolis as glorifying violence. I can see this turning into a big pissing contest between Trump and Twitter and make him look even more foolish. Unfortunately, his followers won't care and it probably just helps fuel his rhetoric that the media is out to get him.

If you post something that needs to be fact checked, maybe your post isn't true and you should check the facts yourself...
All these alternative facts...

If Twitter is going to fact check Trump, they need to apply the same standard to all world leaders. Otherwise it becomes bias.
Take a look at the Supreme Leader of Iran's twitter account sometime.....

If anyone needs protestors for their advocacy group, political function or child's birthday party or Bar Mitzvah:
https://www.demandprotest.com/?fbclid=IwAR2xBM4ww1OZ6cAT-EAKRDbXQCOdQDw8n2FVRSO2kOYpfFmgHl8A8xljv0c
I dont know if this is legitimate, but it is pretty disturbing if it is.

Just as fake as it was back in 2016/2017.

Note: I'm using a conservative news source for you. There's PLENTY of other reporting out there on the topic, by other news outlets (and snopes).
Run by right wingers seeking to discredit actual protests by the looks of things.
