President Trump is expected to sign an executive order Thursday targeting social media companies such as Twitter,with the technology platforms he uses as a political bullhorn in an election year.
The sparring with social media companies is another dividing line in the 2020 election, as conservatives complain that their voices are not heard and liberals demand greater efforts to flag deliberate falsehoods and disinformation — especially from the president. “That’s the irony of all this,” said Nathaniel Persily, a Stanford University law professor who studies technology and democracy. “The platforms will be much more aggressive in their automated filtering to go after content that could raise their legal liability.”Legal experts are skeptical that Trump’s order would pass judicial scrutiny given the wide berth Congress has given social media companies to police their own platforms.
The plan could provide another outlet for growing right-wing resentment toward social media companies, whom they accuse of censoring or downplaying conservative political messages.
Silence the hate, ban Trump!
LOOOOOOOOOOOOOL, drumpf upset about unchecked power... that’s rich.
Eating too much hydroxychloroquine causes mental mania (Trump).
Keep your eye on the fucking ball. There are over 100,000 dead Americans. Don’t let him distract you with yet another ridiculous tweet or comment or lie His incompetence and lack of empathy is the cause of many thousands more deaths than there should have been.
Twitter fake news got Trump elected. Now we know why Mark Zuckerberg defended Trump earlier. Marky got a personal warning from DontheCon and wet his diapers fearing his FB profits would take a hit. Bottom line over morals for Suckerburg.
Said the one whose power is fraudulent.
Imagine having a president who acts swiftly on social media companies instead of a global pandemic. Laughable!
Executive order should also apply to Nextdoor groups, 875 Stevenson St ste. 700, San Francisco, Ca. This group punishes conservatives, or anyone standing up for American values. Once they come down on you they kick you out permanently. Nextdoor has no right to censor ppl.
Oh that’s rich
Freedom Of Speech Is Under Attack By This Dictator
There can’t be enough fact-checking of this president.
I thank Pres Trump for standing up against oppression! ANYONE WHO SUPPORTS OUR AMAZING PRESIDENT SHOULD DELETE TWITTER, SEND A MSG THAT WE WON'T STAND 4 THIS! realDonaldTrump BoycottTwitter maga Section 230 Executive Order Shh. Don't tell them.
Meanwhile, idiots on Twitter scream 'kill the right to free speech if I disagree with it' You never, ever, hear this on the right. Only the left. 🤔
The irony of signing an executive order based on “unchecked power” 🤣
He means executive power
Truck Fump.
Unchecked power? That’s got to be a case of the pot calling the kettle black!
Now now Donald envy and jealousy will get you nowhere. So what if social media companies being more intelligent and transparent have their right to expose you for what you really are, a fraud, a fool, and a Compulsive Liar. The children of the future will say, 'He was a bad man.'
Twitter, FB and YouTube all have editorial power and it all shifts left. I’m not for government regulating free speech but the aforementioned companies own a virtual monopoly on the dissemination of political discourse today. Picture Ma Bell, back in the day...
Out of Control 👀
Trump wont stop until everything is burned to the ground
😂👏🏾
Irony is dead.
the power to tell the truth? the power to prove that the President realDonaldTrump constantly lies? the power to help us make sense of things?
It’s amazing how fast he reacted to someone hurting his feelings, but he has yet to do something about the current crisis. WorstPresidentEver TrumpMeltdown TrumpIsAnIdiot
I thought teen age girls liked twitter?Can we leave him a message,trump please get to work or your going to loose.Take my advice what you are doing is turning your party off.Your not a fight if all you do is tweet.
The new American Putin, Kim Jon Un. No more freedom of speech and free Press!?.Wanted a Military Parade a la Communist China!?. Calling our awesome and reasonable Generals who opposed such an idiotic idea. Cry babies?. You are absolutely nuts!. You think like a 5 year old. Out!!
Trump is a wantAbe dictator
This man should stop talking about himself then start blaming the social media
cenzorship in US belongs to private companies that makes big money an abnormal excessive power that doesnt fit to democratic society. in other words this country now in one step from losing its constitutional order or maybe lost it already
He huffs and he puffs. And he blows hot air. Puff! Nothing! Twitter needs to delete the orange impeached one.
Having unchecked power on twitter would be wrong 🙄
blah blah blah
Trump is a complete dictatorship in America! Trump needs to be November banned from being in the WH with his destructive mouth! We need progress like Joe who will understand important issues like this pandemic. So less will end up dead! Trump is America's biggest regret!
Especially unchecked where trump is concerned 😟
Once again, a Twitter headline fails us.
He's an idiot. But so is the special exemption social media companies have that places like the don't have. I don't like the Times, but they can be sued for libel, unlike Twitter or Facebook, etc. who are protected mostly because they are big political donors.
Has anyone ever noticed that Donald Trump has really small hands?
D I S T R A C T I O N S !!! 100kDeadAmericans TrumpBadgeOfHonor TrumpLiesAmericansDie TrumpDeathToll100K
Behaving like a petulant child.
I want to see him try to enforce it...
I assume you included yourself in that executive order because of your self-delegated 'unchecked power,' King Donald Longshanks.
I can’t say this enough..Trump needs a Psychiatric Evaluation ASAP!!
His presidency needs to end like every other pandemic in 2020 .
Speaking of unchecked power...
How about Facebook?
He's a f-ing totalitarian. If he 'wins', he'll have nothing to lose over the course of the next 4 years!
If the man does one thing well, it's constant projection.
Great move. Otherwise they should really be calling out the media’s fabrications and rhetoric
There’s a solution for that. Log off! And take your followers with you.
Bless his heart
No Article ll for them. So there!
When you're an insecure president seeking unchecked power and don't really love capitalism as much as you claim, this is something you might say.
Donald Trump is a Dictator! SaveTwitter VoteTrumpOut
SHOULDN'T HE BE ALONE?! YOU DO KNOW THAT BE BEST HAS BEEN USED AGAINST THIS RIGHT!?
they should kill his account. righttorefuseservice
