Washington President Donald on Thursday, White House Press Secretary Kayleigh McEnany told reporters aboard Air Force One on the return flight to Washington following NASA's aborted SpaceX launch.
McEnany did not specify what the order would include, but it signals the most significant step the President has taken in his war with tech companies as they struggle to balance freedom of speech with the growing problem of misinformation. On Tuesday, Twitter applied a fact-check to two of Trump's tweets, including one that falsely claimed mail-in ballots would lead to widespread voter fraud.
It’s time that Section 230 be receded and all parties be held responsible for there actions and statements. ALL including news sources, social media and print. If you say it, you better be able to support your statement.
The president of the land of the free and he wants to stop freedom of speech, am I the only one seeing the irony in that?
The new Hitlar
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 many years ago that social networks believe that they are a state power, they have to be widely regulated
Idiot
Only dictators say 'the press is the enemy of society'; and act to suppress the freedom of expression... Only dictators. The freedom of expression is a constitutional right (first amendment).
Just because his tweets were flagged, incredible.
Oh what's the matter president tweety some one checking your facts maybe just stop lieing or is that the only way you think you can win in November you must think everyone can't find the truth what an idiot
Trump is like us he knows what's going on that. Why the evil hate him
What is next. Was good as long as he could say stupidity, but now is not convinience for him ..........
Meanwhile the country is dying
Stop stop who do you think you are!!
His ego knows no bounds. It's over for him. Keep him under control until he can be gone.
About to put twitter in check!! 🇺🇸
😂
The era of American dictatorship has arrived!
Screw the executive order from someone who is lawless.
Herr Hitler aka trump has got to be stopped before he interferes with everything not trump, goes ballistic on everyone and all things he perceives anti trump and kills us all - covid-19 mismanagement.
Unbelievable incompetent
Imagine if Twitter deplatformed him? That would be amazing
realDonaldTrump Trumpy has a big butt...
🖕
No companie social media ever to leave president believe forever bye
Instead of assuring our nation that we will no longer tolerate the brutalizing and murdering of African-Americans by the police,he does this!If he can make an executive order for Twitter,he can execute one to stop the atrocities that African-Americans are facing in this country!
Really? I think what he is doing is great!! He is protecting our Freedom of speech!! You guys need to find something positive to do! 🙄
Crybaby.
I just don't get where you think that you can shut down something that fact checks your lying ass. Still can't handle it when someone disagrees with you.
And so history repeats itself- divide the country (make sure people have someone to blame for their problems) controll the free speech and media and make sure you have your own army (budget$ raised for the military). It’s like 1940 all over again.
Lol. Y’all got a tyrant ruling 😂
If he told the truth or even knew what the truth was than he would not get fact checked by them.
Pussy
He acts fast, cuando le combiene.
UNHINGED!
realDonaldTrump
What a loser
Trump is mentally ill. Anyone who supports him enables his delusions and has moral, psychological, or intellectual deficiencies of their own. Appears to be many of them which is frightening. Everyday, grateful my grandparents immigrated from the U.S to Canada. TrumpMeltdown
1798 - the House passed the Sedition Act,permitting deportation, fine, or imprisonment of anyone deemed a threat or publishing “false, scandalous, or malicious writing” against the government of the United States. Now one man, testing freedom of speech again.
Stupid Trump continues to spread fake news
Get ready 4 a court battle.
DishonestDonald
And that's violating the first amendment. Also 'small government conservative' my ass
He worried bout twitter? Overall the things going on TWITTER? Come on man! 🤦🏽♀️
Twitter really F'ed up. By deciding to add 'Fact Checks' to some posts, Twitter became a PUBLISHER, not a FORUM. The rules for PUBLISHERS are different. This is the DUMBEST thing that Jack has ever done. STAY IN YOUR LANE, Twitter!
Because there’s nothing else to concentrate on right now 🙄
Hahaha
Twittiot
Black people are dying in the street at the hands of cops. COVID has reached 100,000 deaths. Minneapolis is burning. This guy is signing Twitter legislation. How do Trump supporters ignore this stuff? COVID19 minneapolisriots thursdaymorning notmypresident
Trump’s war on truth continues.
100,000+ dead and rioting in Minnesota. Whining like a little b because you got fact checked. Obvious where your priorities are.
👏🏻👏🏻🤡🤡
What a sucky baby, among other things. Someone get him a soother. My way or the cryway.
Should pull themselves up by their own bootstraps and make their own Twitter
Yawn.... For some crazy reason, I'm more concerned with the deadly pandemic that is terrorizing the world than I am about whether or not our thin skinned president is being treated nicely enough on Twitter.
How is he able to control a social media company? I thought congress needs to put a law into place to do that. He really DOES think he’s king. He lies every day & gets away with it but can’t stand it when someone (or a company) says “no, you can’t do that”. What an idiot.
😂 POTUS realDonaldTrump no mater how much you try to change social media to be nice to you, the facts are you will always be an embarrassing c**t around the world !
Digital obscurantism
Social Media will eat him up alive🤣🤣🤣
What a loser
Good. THEN he will he kicked OFF S M all together ‘HOT DANG’
Dictatorship
You know who gets upset by being fact checked? It isn't the habitual truth teller.
He cries more than me and I’m a baby. Somebody call his babysitter. He needs to change his diapers. georgefloyd
Sounds like something Hitler would do . Orange Nazi in the Whitehouse, supported by the dumbest people in America.
Wear a mask
Can twitter ban him then?
This is just a tantrum by a mentally unstable man whose political career is circling the drain. Let him speak, let him tweet. He will be his own undoing.
He needs to release an executive order to shut down lying, joke, pathetic, demonic, partisan, manufactured news CNN
Twitter should just cancel his account or he should. Just like any business they have the right to refuse service. For instance, if I had a business and Trump came into it and start harassing and attacking verbally the other customers, he would be asked to leave.
ExecutiveDisorder Trump is abusing his power. He is forcing social media companies to enable his lies & divisiveness so he can continue to divide this country.
“You should have a choice of what you want to do,” he told the American-Statesman. “If I get it, I get it. If I do, I’ll deal with that. You can’t live forever.”
改社会主义吧，
Weak pathetic narcissist is afraid.
That’s illegal and you have no authority to do that being President you still have no authority to do it
Fact checking isn’t censorship. He can’t get away with this. Reality is, social media SHOULD be fact checking.
Hit them HARD!!!
I'm not an American but I always thought US have a system in place to avoid dictatorship... until now.
Which will be meaningless. If he wants to live in a fantasy world of proclamations against private companies then let him have his idiot event. He cannot do anything like this and it will just be forgotten by the weekend. Another tantrum. I think this is number 321,673.
Not good news for the 'fake news' AKA as well. It's only a matter of time for your crooked asses to be out out of work. Adda boy realDonaldTrump you the man! I wish you could teach the limp wrist wanna be leader to the north a thing or two about running a country.
Why have we not heard from the president regarding George Floyd's murder.
SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO...... The Department of Justice will prevail if Twitter of Facebook post something he does't like. But if HE post something fallacious, racist, if he promotes conspiracy theories, fake news....will they prevail too? Allow me to DOUBT!
😳🥴
All hat no cattle. Let’s focus on the murder of Americans by ineptitude, not MOMMY MY COMPUTER SENTENCES ARE BEING CHECKED FOR FACTS WAAAAH
Soon...
Get ready because Fake News is next.
Cry baby trump. It’s not cute!
How is this trumps business He can not control everything unless he is aspiring to be hitler
He should be banned for his pathetic spelling and grammar. Must have gone to Trump U
I can’t stand him
This took TWO DAYS. Imagine what he could do - and how quickly he could do it -to enact sensible gun laws if he wanted to. What a pathetic man.
LOL Twitter will just Delete his Account! Can you imagine Trump without Twitter? He’ll be in a Straight Jacket!
Can’t wait to hear what the Moron in Chief proposes! Will most likely be unconstitutional which means nothing to lawless Trump! Trump is our founding fathers worst nightmare as he tries to destroy our democracy through lies, deceit and corruption!
This is beneath even Trump, but it also makes you wonder what low standards WH lawyers have. Using free speech arguments to allow deliberate lies and deception is appalling.
Man Republicans sure do love their Dictator...Are we living in China?
Social media companies & mainstream media LOL 😄
I hope the social media companies & print media join in a lawsuit. The President is knowingly engaging in defamation, etc. in other words, he is not engaging in free speech. He is violating free speech & the platform has a legal obligation to remove the publication of false info
Maybe Twitter should finally terminate 45s account on Twitter. jack Twitter
Useless announcements just to get some media space. Next we' ll hear How unfair the news media is treating him. Poor...poor...poor LYSOL DONALD TRUMP.
So in the middle of a global pandemic and record unemployment, the President of the United States is announcing an executive order on...Twitter.
i hate this man BlackLivesMatter
What a joke.
King twittler has spoken! Twitter should have neutered him from the start. Now the courts will have to remind him AGAIN that he is not King.
So passing an executive order to sue Twitter will lead Twitter to update their terms and agreements that will give Twitter the right bane accounts they deem liabilities. 🧐How long you think Trump will last?
Of course he is. They are just next on his list of vindictive retaliations for attempting to lift his dishonest vail
lol
An out of control dictator! Painfully unbelievably that this kind of behavior can go unchallenged in America, our framers must rolling over this minute.
Twitter legal aspects aside. Aren’t there fact check industries who can do this all over the social media platforms. Why aren’t they engaged externally?
🤣😜😜
neniambulance Psychiatric intervention needed at the White House, the Orange Guy has lost all his marbles
What a baby. Twitter is a private company and when you open your account you agree to it’s policy. If you don’t like it, then deleted your account TrumpIsANationalDisgrace VoteBlueToSaveAmerica2020 trumpisababy
All you have to do is block Trump. Change user agreement to not let users lie or mislead. Truth to power.
I Hate This Tweet
Dontlet him get away with this!!!!!
This Pres is almost like me in a way seriously. My mother has talked about my abrupt obsessions. .I try to control that tendency but it's hard. .He better quit SMS activity 4 a while. In the meantime he can stick with real policies. .
jack The problem with Donald Trump is that he uses Twitter as a platform to post lies, misinformation, and to slander people in this country. Why would you tolerate that, Jack?
Make America Great? This is like saying that the president of China will free social media.
Jeez that was quick. Pity he didn’t move this fast to stop the spread of a deadly virus!
Where have I seen this...
I hope he does bring twitter down because it would take his dumbshit followers at least 6 months to learn another social media platform.
I wonder how many will actually care about bogus orders in the midst of a pandemic 🤔
Look America, I wouldn't be mr president if I was reigned in by Twitter in 2016. I want my right to spew misinformation and lies at will. I'm mr president dammit.
NightOwl_Rubio ENOUGH ENOUGH ENOUGH ENOUGH ENOUGH ENOUGH ENOUGH ENOUGH ENOUGH ENOUGH ENOUGH ENOUGH ENOUGH ENOUGH ENOUGH ENOUGH ENOUGH ENOUGH ENOUGH ENOUGH ENOUGH ENOUGH ENOUGH ENOUGH ENOUGH ENOUGH ENOUGH ENOUGH ENOUGH ENOUGH ENOUGH ENOUGH ENOUGH ENOUGH ENOUGH
Trump insanity must be stopped ASAP
He realizes there's nothing he can do about it right?
Truth will set us free, realDonaldTrump WhatIsTruth
Executive order?! Not to help the American people in any way shape or form but to help HIMSELF be able to spew his lies and propaganda unfettered and unchecked! What a monumental failure of the highest accord!
So imagine the legal bills that taxpayers will have to pay to fight the lawsuits that will follow. The Whitehouse lawyers are in court almost every day fighting to protect Trump’s stupid decisions. His environmental laws roll back is another example. Does his base realize this?
You can’t hide the truth Trumpo - you will get found out.
Good old fashioned SOE!! Love it!! MAGA
The media does the reporting, so don't let the focus be taken away from the 100,000 dead & 35 million unemployed - stop letting him control the narrative...
Hood
😂
Finally hold these biased platforms accountable.
its a bout time twitter hide my stuff all the time but I’m no body Goooo TRUMP other wise we are on the track
Put the damn phone down, stop tweeting, and act like a President !!!
Donald, boy that orange thin skin is not helping you out at all is it. I wish you could take criticism as well as your dish criticism out! Donald you’re so vain, anyone says anything bad about you, you’re crying like a baby!
C'est la dictature 'trumpiene'
Who cares. This is not news. Stop echoing his foolishness
I think foxandfriends would the the only survivor then. Congrats to FoxNews on your Quote FreeSpeech
You have a raging PANDEMIC on your hands. Over 100,000 lives have been lost due to this pandemic. People have lost jobs and more. The economy is a mess. Black men are being targeted and killed by people you think highly of! BUT, you're worried about your SOCIAL MEDIA presence?
If so, hopefully they all the balls to close his accounts from their private company.
ONE HUNDRED THOUSAND LIVES and these is what he devotes his attention to.
I guess he expects us to all act just like sheep and let this happen. So much for free speech in this country. Just how does that make our country great? Sounds more like a dictatorship to me than a democracy.
Because he is a fascist pig.
THIS I Gotta SEE ! ! The 5 year old stand up comedian Brat who calls himself POTUS, commanding privately owned businesses to SHUT UP ! ! Is ANYBODY sure he's NOT on drugs ? ! ? I mean besides Donny ? ! ?
Trumpisabuffoon The source that Donald Trump uses most to tear people apart and spread his twisted version of reality has exposed a vulnerability he does not like. He wants to tell HIS truth, but nobody else gets to speak their truth. He wants to control everyone's truth.
Se siente a veces como si estuvieran infiltradas por el gobierno de China
If anyone still has doubts about his man’s sanity, please raise your hand.
Hey realdonaldtrump DeleteYourAccount That'll show Twitter! Done and done! 👍👏
Ordinarily I wouldn’t worry. Clearly this is unconstitutional, and the SCOTUS will fix it. But the SCOTUS is stacked. We’re counting on you RBG.
Are you covering the riots from last evening. Or covering it up?
JLozanoA the last bastion of capitalism in north america 
Will it be more Executive Magical Thinking or what exactly, in term of legal enforceability?
Donald J Trump the authoritarian 👑 demands he be allowed to lie and not a question, America is under siege by a racist jealous vindictive and pathological liar. Between Moscow Mitch McConnell and the hate corruption coming from 🐘 leadership. Where not helping their states!
Its good, there needs to b checks & balances
Best news so far today!
This guy has literally lost his marbles! Smfh..notmypresident
UnfollowTheUnpresident Stop listening to realDonaldTrump and his lies/attacks/hissy fits.
All bluster and deflection!
Unconstitutional. I hope it's challenged in court.
Every passing moment it truly shows how unqualified for the job he really is...
JordiGraupera Order 66
The people need to announce their executive order and VOTE ..
Only, he can’t do that....
Cry baby
Let’s see if the MAGA idiots love the 1st amendment as much as they love the 2nd...
He give an executive order on himself , to have some empathy for hitting a milestone in DEATHS!!!! that is what a normal man does ,especially president ,can not wait for election!!!!!👍👍
Because there’s nothing more important than his tweets
Dictator wanna be
Pres realDonaldTrump is correct in doing just that. When you suppress free-speech on a public venue, the Constitution and the rights it gives to every citizen, is at risk. You, CNN, as a “news“ organization should be on the forefront of supporting this move by our President.
And watch how fast it ends up in court.
That’s what Hitler did in Germany !!!
I remember Putin at that G20 summit, can’t exactly remember the year. But I remember how dejected and forlorn he was. No world leader wanted to get in touch with him. But boy did that man comeback with a vengeance!
Wrong HEADLINE! TRUMP is about to STOP THE FAKE SOCIALIST MEDIA. YOU'RE NEXT CNNFakeNews
Good, no more FakeSocialDistancingFacts FakeNewsMedia
If he hates twitter so much why doesn’t he GET OFF OF TWITTER?
He deals important things..
And the country is set to laugh in his face about it.
Good,
Like you’re crazy grandpa. America hang your head in shame because of realDonaldTrump
*yawn* Make him stand in the corner until he's through with his temper tantrum.
If you think fact check Twitter is tough on you. Wait till they write your epatath.
Ban them all together. Or just plain block Trump. That works for me
They're not saying you can't tweet. They are saying you can't lie. There's a difference.
So basically we should just believe the 10K lies he said? Crazy 😝
So just so we are clear he is wanting to censor a platform because they called him in his bullshit? But making me wear a mask is taking away my freedom? Ok gotcha. MAGAts
Congratulations America! You got what you wanted. Posterity watches and laughs. This is Machiavellian stuff.
Loool. Welcome in the USA where freedom of speech is ensured. Spolied orange kid.
سا بي
100,000 Americans are dead because the president failed to protect our country.
Toothless executive order
😂😂😂😂 what a moron
It isn’t against social media , can’t you people get anything right?
He doesn’t have the authority!
Awesome! Lets get on it! These corporate communist elites need to be stopped. Even the google searches are limited now. I use to come across so much information when I typed in a search. So much of it is gone. We are being lead to believe what THEY want us to believe!
About time. The right has been censored far too often and we can’t let Twitter interfere in our elections
Trump falls out with every thing , that does not swing his way .
It's nothing but threats. He's gonna make up some rule, from someone in his admin who probably told him to go with it just for show, it will be contested in court, he will lose but that doesn't matter cause his supporters will love him for it and social media will freak out.
THAT MEANS SQUAT!!! JUST LIKE TRUMP MEANS SQUAT.
🤣
To constrain America
?
I predict this should be yet again a disturbing & pitiful showing all in one presentation per his usual. Trump will be at it again screaming for attention and the 'It's all about me.' Gun rights & suppression of the press, and hiding the truth is his top priority.
Social Media companies:
If there is a reason to cheat people will find it whether its money hewth benefits or elections.We have been brought uo to out our own interests ahead of others see only one side our side of most issues. ID checks must be part of any election system and now we should think online
And if he social media suspend his accounts lol
Will he do so via twitter? ROFL
That's viciousness and undemocratic. Leave them alone.
Dah mulai membabi buta
Bad headline. Twitter doesn’t try to constrain anyone. realDonaldTrump is the POTUS and should not be using Twitter to outright lie or spread misinformation. It’s about time Twitter took responsible action.
Wow that clown must mean business, the orange war paint is heavy duty. That colour he’s wearing is a mix between native and East Indian. Technically he’s considered non white. Holy shit the white nationalist better find a new leader!!!!
Donnie going to stuff it up there
Maybe this will include Fox “News”
A tormented face
Good about fucking time
Good luck. You're about to give many lawyers wet dreams. It will never hold up, and all he'll do is make lawyers rich.
Look at the guy in charge of fact-checking here at Twitter, than to make it even a bigger joke they pick the 2 biggest DNC media lap dogs as fact checkers DNCNN and WaPo. 😂😂😂
Let him first make an order against all racist Americans and cops including himself.justice for George floyd
This is disgusting and an abuse of power. Trump is off the rails because someone dared to put boundaries down. Mark of a Dictator. Where are you, GOP SenateGOP senatemajldr SenRickScott SenSchumer marcorubio SpeakerPelosi HouseGOP HouseDemocrats
Meaningless.
King Trump has ordered 🤔
Um, they are private businesses Just because they are holding the leader of the US to the truth, there is no need for him to go after them. I have been shut down twice now and he never, ever has and he is a whole lot meaner and nastier than I am
Idiot
Constrain? It was a fact check warning.
this is USA not Cuba or Venezuela, China, or Korea move to o e of these socialist communist countries to enforce your dictatorship Donald J.Trump💯
Did Twitter confirm this is true?
So ,let's see. This man is trying to convince other's to stop doing what he's done all his live. Isn't this so embarrassing to him self. Simply put you just can't have it both ways!
He’s going from a propaganda machine to his Gestapo enforcement group (aka the DOJ) to get rid of his critics. Worst president ever! Vote him out in November while we still can.
'Constrain' is the wrong word for this Article. Simply 'Fact-Checking' would be the correct word, and it should be done for All Politicians, & Public Officials, period. This War on Reality; misleading, lying, & using the American People, needs to stop.
He has significant brain damage.
Free speeches!!
coys100 PISS OFF FROM ENGLAND 🏴 DONALD TRUMP IS GREAT !!!!!! 🏴🇺🇸
So thin skinned - he’s on Twitter nonstop and now going after them because they did a fact check and yet his flock will still not see anything wrong
The FCC can revoke section 230 protections on it’s own, at any time, it does not need congresses help or permission.
A black man named Floyd was brutally murdered by some coward officers and this is what you're president doing? No remorse, no comments, no nothing..... realDonaldTrump
Just ban him from twitter and be done with it
All this because Twitter finally fact checked him, what a baby!
40 million people on unemployment and Trump wants to cut the benefits in July think of the homeless think of the people that are going to be starving to death,😡😡😡
lmao
Stop your lies!!!!
Yet again using the position for personal agendas... glad he'll be gone in November vote
I’m literally getting sick to my stomach of this man. He is really forcing the American people to accept his lies as truth in the mists of a pandemic that has killed more than 100k of American citizens. This is extremely dangerous.
That he has no earthly clue of how it could be implemented in the real world. Anyway, it's a good time to remind everyone that Trump's lies got 23 people murdered in El Paso.
Stop acting like a 3yr old with you tantrums!! realDonaldTrump
So only he must denounce fake news
Trump set to announce he has a micro penis and covid
ROFLMAO for what? Speaking the truth that isn't in his best favor? ResignNowTrump
Can’t wait!
Totalitarian. Thanks GOP
