Really trump us still involved somehow…
The Government WORKS FOR THE PEOPLE.
IT IS NOT THE MASTER OF THE PEOPLE.
Reported dumped a word salad.
Well, that’s going to be overturned just as soon as the appeal gets processed.
End all social media, it has been bastardized from its initial use.
Free speech wins over the lies of the deep state
Good for that. These SCUM should be forbidden to BREATHE.
Biden isn’t combating disinformation. He’s peddling it himself and enforcing it.
Funny how faux news and the rightwing liars are cheering for their right to continue deceiving, distorting the truth, and outright lying.
Fine. As long as it applies to ALL.
You can't say anything incorrect. The government decides what's correct. What could go wrong?
I guess I'm MAGA now 😅
Another words…..the judge upheld the first amendment!😊
This hurts more to Trump tbh lol
So Trump was able to run rampant on social media to the point of starting a riot and insurrection and now some judge wakes up and says no social media for a president .A little to little to late
Joe Bidens Whitehouse went too far. Vaccine mandates, censorship of free speech, whats next. Democracy dies with Biden.
Yeah, sounds like a Trump appointed court. There are limits to free speech as the former President is now finding out. You can't continue to keep lying about everything and anything and not expect retribution. Like the old saying goes, "you can't yell fire in a crowded theater, it's not protected speech"
Only communist and cheaters fear Free Speech. Democrats fear Democracy
How is that going to go over? We all still have our Constitution and the freedom of speech.
Ministry of Truth – social media companies working with Biden Administration, 1984 is here
First Roe v Wade, then affirmative action, then no student debt forgiveness and now this. I am so happy intelligence is finally outdoing WOKE
Pure tyranny nothing else.
"I am sitting here with my father and we would like to understand why the commitment made has not been fulfilled. Tell the director that I would like to resolve this now before it gets out of hand, and now means tonight. And, Z, if I get a call or text from anyone involved in this other than you, Zhang, or the chairman, I will make certain that between the man sitting next to me and every person he knows and my ability to forever hold a grudge that you will regret not following my direction. I am sitting here waiting for the call with my father."…..Hunter Biden
Interesting
Jab is bad. I knew it then, other people finding that out now. #pureblood
Some communist democrat said it perfectly, "This is a conservative idea." Yes, freedom is a Republican idea, unlike Democrats who want to regulate you life from when you wake up to when you go to sleep. So if you like freedom, then vote Republican and if you want your speech censored and regulated, then vote Democrat.
This ruling is wrong.
Just keep putting misinformation up so people don't know the truth or, for that matter, anything that could cause harm to the American people. I mean, what the heck let people be put in harms way and who cares about slowing deaths who cares about doing the right thing. Keep up the good work stopping harmful information from getting out.
Its because of more fake news! Sure drag trump into this but dont explain the circumstances.msnbc is one reason i started watching epoch times
So the media corporations can publish anything false or not. There should some legislation prohibiting lies slanders. Can there be licensing require for any news media to publish news or information. Any idiots can publish anything harmful and make money by hurting the public. Corporations has free range
In Oct. 2020 just weeks before the election the FBI bullied Twitter to take down the NY Post account and censor all stories about the Hunter Biden laptop saying it was Russian disinformation when the FBI had already verified it was Hunter's laptop! So the FBI lied to Twitter! THIS IS CLEAR SUPPRESSION OF FREE SPEECH AND WAS INTERFERING WITH A PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION!!!*
July 15, 2021 White House news conference about Covid: “We are flagging problematic posts for Facebook that spread disinformation,” said former Biden spokeswoman Jen Psaki! ““it’s important to take faster action against harmful posts…and Facebook needs to move more quickly to remove harmful violative posts.” One of those ‘harmful posts’ was that the virus started in the Wuhan lab – WHICH WAS TRUE! That’s just one of many, many examples of the Biden administration suppressing free speech! And the judge himself gave example after example in his opinion!
Ah yes Democrats, show us all how little you care about the First Amendment.
