    Are they providing just a service or are they editing with the purpose of publishing? What you consider lies is truth to others, if you don't like what's being said, don't read it.

    There are so many millions of examples that Democrats just can't see them I guess...

    This is straight out of some dystopian world.

    This is in fact the most corrosive thing Trump has done - he has normalised the spreading of false information to the extent that a huge proportion of the population believes falsehoods to be true.

    He has attacked American values. He is anti-American and his supporters cheer him on without even realising they are destroying the country they claim to love.

    They're not editing.

    They're providing parallel commentary.

    Sleazy, but it doesn't change their status.

    I miss Obama.

    He lied constantly, deported far more illegals than Trump, put children in cages, and murdered huge numbers of innocent people, including many children.

    Why can't Trump be more like Obama???

    Lol...maybe the gutless Cuban sycophant can sue them now for ‘publishing’ trump’s news about his father killing JFK.
    But tell him to wipe trump’s **** off his nose before trying it.
    Brown-nosers don’t get much respect.

    The issue isn’t fact checking it’s adding essential op-Ed’s

    You’ve made that claim twice now. You also said

    “the IG found has and found gross misconduct and evidence suppressed that showed the Obama admin hid evidence suggesting the Russians preferred Clinton”.

    Please provide a link to this IG finding.

    I think Trump should move his daily updates to Facebook.
    Twitter just disgraced itself by hiding Trumps feeds.
    Whether they agree with him politically or not, if they don’t have an open and transparent public policy regarding some political posts, they are not in a position to hide his tweets or attach fact checks to them.
    I, personally, could never understand the point of multiple social media platforms. Why have Twitter if you can update statuses in Facebook? What’s the point of Instagram if you can post pictures on Facebook. I use only 1 platform. Logically, it makes no sense to have more than 1, as any 1 of those platforms allow you to publicly broadcast messages and share pictures. I also don’t understand why Trump fights Twitter. Just leave it and be done with it.
    Even though, Twitter is in the wrong, Trump should really stay away from it in quite a few cases.

    Gross misconduct found by the IG: https://www.justice.gov/storage/120919-examination.pdf

    Obama IC hide evidence Russia preferred Clinton: https://americanmilitarynews.com/20...tel-saying-russia-wanted-hillary-win-in-2016/

    Remember the U.S. intel community came out with that remarkable statement, an assessment that Russia meddled in the 2016 election, and most importantly the intel report claimed that Russia interfered because they wanted Donald Trump to win,” Henry said. “That of course followed the narrative of the now-discredited Steele Dossier. Well, it turns out Obama’s CIA chief, John Brennan also had intel saying ‘actually Russia wanted Hillary Clinton to win because she was a known quantity, she had been secretary of state, and Vladimir Putin’s team thought she was more malleable, while candidate Donald Trump was unpredictable.”

    I wouldn’t be so confident about it. Russians openly favored Trump.

    I’ve read it all don’t worry.
    I also happen to be able to read in Russian and Ukrainian languages and remember very well how russians were cheering to Trump on state-owned mass media. Their members of parliament opened up champagne on the news of Trumps victory right in their parliament (Duma). No amount of CIA leaks can invalidate that fact.

    LOL... what a lovely standard that is. Even though, now, we know, that these folks were actively working to undermine and then obstruct an elected president and that their entire story was a fantasy that was bought and paid for by the HRC2016 and DNC. Got it.

    Perhaps. But I would tend to side on what the legislative intent here is. I would suggest that twitter isn't on safe ground, and if their legal team advised them that they were, well, lots of billing and little to show for it.
