Dictator Trump threatens social media after Twitter fact-checks him

You need to keep in mind that the largest recent absentee ballot fraud was committed by Republicans in North Carolina's 9th District Congressional election. Leslie McCrae Dowless led a absentee ballot harvesting operation for Republican candidate Mark Harris. This led to the election being overturned. I should note that prior to 2015, Leslie McCrae Dowless did the same exact thing for Democratic candidates for nearly two decades -- but the Democratic controlled State Board of Elections never cared about this.

The laws in all stated need to be changed to make Absentee Ballot Harvesting illegal before we allow large-scale elections by mail.

Nobody should be handling someone else's absentee ballots. Democrats have been doing so for sometime. One more reason they love absentee ballot harvesting is they there are cities where the number of registered voters exceed the actual number of residents? Of course, Democrat election officials refuse to clean up their voting rolls of dead people and illegals (foreigners). Also, using the absentee ballot rule removes scrutiny and being required to present an ID? Why do the Democrats object to providing ID when practically, anything you do, requires you to prove your identity?
 
Trump threatens social media after Twitter fact-checks him

President Donald Trump on Wednesday threatened social media companies with new regulation or even shuttering a day after Twitter added fact checks to two of his tweets.

The president can’t unilaterally regulate or close the companies, which would require action by Congress or the Federal Communications Commission. But that didn’t stop Trump from angrily issuing a strong warning.

Claiming tech giants “silence conservative voices,” Trump tweeted, “We will strongly regulate, or close them down, before we can ever allow this to happen.”

And he repeated his unsubstantiated claim — which sparked his latest showdown with Silicon Valley — that expanding mail-in voting “would be a free for all on cheating, forgery and the theft of Ballots.”

Trump and his campaign angrily lashed out Tuesday after Twitter added a warning phrase to two Trump tweets that called mail-in ballots “fraudulent” and predicted that “mail boxes will be robbed,” among other things. Under the tweets, there is now a link reading “Get the facts about mail-in ballots” that guides users to a Twitter “moments” page with fact checks and news stories about Trump’s unsubstantiated claims.

Trump replied on Twitter, accusing the platform of “interfering in the 2020 Presidential Election” and insisting that “as president, I will not allow this to happen.” His 2020 campaign manager, Brad Parscale, said Twitter’s “clear political bias” had led the campaign to pull “all our advertising from Twitter months ago.” Twitter has banned all political advertising since last November.

Trump did not explain his threat Wednesday, and the call to expand regulation appeared to fly in the face of long-held conservative principles on deregulation.

But some Trump allies, who have alleged bias on the part of tech companies, have questioned whether platforms like Twitter and Facebook should continue to enjoy liability protections as “platforms” under federal law — or be treated more like publishers, which could face lawsuits over content.

The protections have been credited with allowing the unfettered growth of the internet for more than two decades, but now some Trump allies are advocating that social media companies face more scrutiny.

“Big tech gets a huge handout from the federal government,” Republican Sen. Josh Hawley told Fox News. “They get this special immunity, this special immunity from suits and from liability that’s worth billions of dollars to them every year. Why are they getting subsidized by federal taxpayers to censor conservatives, to censor people critical of China.”

Trump should just say that the existence of Twitter increases the likelihood that people will be using their phones while driving which puts the public as a whole at greater risk of dying in a fatal car accident. Therefore Twitter is permanently banned.

Keep in mind the OP believes religious services, peaceful assembly, freedom of speech and pursuit of happiness all needed to end because he was scared.
 
Keep in mind the Democrats priorities. Casinos are okay to open even though, there are more people in an enclosed area and dirty air circulated by the airconditioning over and over but, nail and hairdressing salons are still shutdown? Common sense would tell you that there are less people in a salon compared to casinos?
 
I bet he will if he gets re-elected because it won't matter then. Wapo has not been kind to djt, and he is a vindictive f*ck.

Oh and here's the other thing... if Biden gets in, he's gonna tax the sh*t out of em.

I don’t give a damn how big they are, Amazon must start paying more tax.
-Sleep Joe.

AMZN may be a good short up here. It's about 3% off its all time high.Crowded af too.

$2410
PE of 115.

There ya go Dest... ;)

Hmmm. More thinking out loud...

The good thing about AMZN too, no way there's gonna be a short squeeze. Too many shares and too much volume.
A 20% haircut takes it down to what, $1900?
Thats easy.

Yep... between Trump sicking Justice on them to get votes, and/or Sleepy Joe taxing them to death.... that, and keeping every PM in the world humble (as the trading gods will not allow these yoyo's to book huge yoy percentage gains, just the way it is)... AMZN may just be the ideal short play up here. In reality, they only employ 250K people too. Sounds like a lot, but for real its peanuts these days when we're getting 2.5M unemployment claims/week and Covid is looking stubborn.

I'm sure the sovereign wealth fund of Saudi owns a big chunk, gotta look into that. Rest assured they will get out early if Trump acts.

10% haircut (at least) at this level is almost a no-brainer. Free money.
 
We run nuclear reactors with higher fail rates than instances of voter fraud in America.

Arguing against opening up access to the ballot because there is a fraud rate greater than one in a million is absurd. Nothing would get done anywhere in the world if we operated anything based on those margins.

Trump to sign executive order aimed at cracking down on Facebook and Twitter, vows ‘FAIRNESS!’
President Donald Trump plans to sign an executive order Thursday cracking down on online platforms such as Facebook, Google and Twitter, vowing “a Big Day for Social Media and FAIRNESS!” The move comes days after Twitter began fact-checking some of his tweets.

The order would push the Federal Communications Commission to write rules on when and how platforms can remove content from their platform and still maintain liability protection granted them under Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act. The law as it stands largely exempts those publications from being held liable for much of the content on their websites.
