Trump: “Twitter Is Completely Stifling Free Speech!”
On Monday, President Trump had tweeted about the dangers of fraud relating to voting by mail.
“There is NO WAY (ZERO!) that Mail-In Ballots will be anything less than substantially fraudulent,” the president said, arguing that “mail boxes will be robbed, ballots will be forged & even illegally printed out & fraudulently signed.”
he President added that with this, the election could end up being seriously “rigged.”
….living in the state, no matter who they are or how they got there, will get one. That will be followed up with professionals telling all of these people, many of whom have never even thought of voting before, how, and for whom, to vote. This will be a Rigged Election. No way! — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) May 26, 2020
However, Twitter decided to put a little “fact-check” on the bottom of the President’s tweets, linking to biased liberal media outlets that attempted to debunk the President’s words. This rightly infuriated President Trump, who said this was tantamount to election interference by Twitter.
“Twitter is completely stifling FREE SPEECH, and I, as President, will not allow it to happen,” he wrote, threatening greater checks on the Big Tech companies.

They have special benefits under Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act as digital platforms because they’re not creating content for which they should be liable,” Gaetz explained on his podcast. “They’re not making decisions about content, they’re simply saying come one, come all with your content. And as a consequence of that, they’re getting a bunch of protections.”
The Florida congressman went on to say that he is “currently working with my Republican colleagues on the Judiciary Committee to craft legislation to say that if you’re going to opine as to the truth or falsity of that which is put on your platform, for the sake of its viewers, you don’t get the protection of Section 230.”
“You are not a platform. You are doing something else, you are editorializing,” Gaetz added.
This is exactly right. This incident with the President may hopefully galvanise the legal action that has been needed against Big Tech for a while now – either they are platforms, or publishers, and they need to make up their mind.

thepoliticalinsider--2020-05-27--Don Lemon: Twitter Should Make Fake News Label On Trump’s Tweets ‘Bigger’

CNN ’ s Don Lemon claimed that Twitter is letting the President “ drag us all right into the mud , ” and they should continue labelling his tweets as fake news .
President Trump had joked on Twitter on Tuesday about the death of the “ Morning Joe ” presenter Joe Scarborough ’ s intern in 2001 .
“ The opening of a Cold Case against Psycho Joe Scarborough was not a Donald Trump original thought , this has been going on for years , long before I joined the chorus , ” the President tweeted .
“ In @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ex-wife , Mika , would endlessly interview me , I would always be thinking about whether or not Joe could have done such a horrible thing ?
Maybe or maybe not , but I find Joe to be a total Nut Job , and I knew him well , far better than most , ” he continued , adding that there were “ so many unanswered & obvious questions , but I won ’ t bring them up now !
Law enforcement eventually will ?
” The fact that Twitter wouldn ’ t @ @ @ @ @ @ @ s Don Lemon – the fact that they wouldn ’ t come on his show just added insult to injury .
“ People have been removed from Twitter for far less outrageous behavior , ” Lemon argued on his show on Tuesday .
He referenced that Twitter have labelled some other tweets of the President talking about vote by mail initiatives as “ misleading , ” and encouraged them to “ make the label bigger ” and target him more .
Lemon : “ Stop Hiding Behind The First Amendment ” “ Twitter @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , [ Twitter ’ s CEO ] and listen , I know that you ’ re doing great things and you ’ re trying to help out people with your barbershop initiative and you ’ re donating money here , that does not make up for this disgusting behavior that you ’ re allowing , especially from the leader of the free world .
It does not , ” Lemon continued , saying that he wishes “ someone would come up with another platform , honestly , so that everybody could just delete @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the other platform , because this is outrageous , disgusting behavior.
” Lemon pleaded with Dorsey to “ stop hiding behind the First Amendment… [ and ] letting the president use their platform to drag us all right into the mud.
” I think this really shows just the attitude that Lemon and the other liberals have .
They see the constitution as something to “ hide behind , ” instead of acknowledging they want to crush your constitutional rights to free speech and expression !
If anyone is “ hiding behind ” @ @ @ @ @ @ @ his colleagues in the media hiding behind a mask of fake respect for your freedoms .
In this particular case , Lemon has also ignored the fact that Scarborough has made the exact same jokes about killing his intern before !
It ’ s one rule for them , and another for us .

Kayleigh McEnany Turns The Tables: Demands Media Ask Joe Scarborough Why He Joked About Killing An Intern

White House Press Secretary Kayleigh McEnany , as she has deftly done in her new position , turned the tables on the media and demanded to know why they aren ’ t asking Joe Scarborough about a joke he made regarding killing an intern .
The media ’ s focus has solely involved how President Trump is tweeting ‘ unhinged ’ conspiracy theories about a tragic incident involving Lori Klausutis , a 28-year-old staffer her wound up dead in Scarborough ’ s Florida district office in 2001 .
At the time , the MSNBC host was a Republican congressman .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ examiner determined a month after her death that Klausutis died of a head injury suffered after passing out from an abnormal heart rhythm .
President Trump has been receiving his fair share of criticism for the conspiratorial tweets suggesting Scarborough had something to do with it – much of it warranted without further evidence .
As is usually the case though , the media has focused exclusively on mean tweets and not on one simple fact – Scarborough actually joked about killing an intern during an appearance with late shock jock , Don @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and Joe Scarborough that joked about killing an intern , joked and laughed about it , ” McEnany told reporters , suggesting they start asking him some questions on the matter .

Late night television show host Jimmy Kimmel launched a vile attack on White House Press Secretary Kayleigh McEnany , calling her a “ willfully ignorant woman ” while he also defended presumptive 2020 Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden .
During his monologue on Tuesday night ’ s show , Kimmel responded to the fact that President Donald Trump had retweeted a post from Fox News host Brit Hume , who had tweeted a photo that portrayed Biden wearing sunglasses and a black mask that covered much of his face at a Memorial Day ceremony .
“ This might help explain @ @ @ @ @ @ @ wear a mask in public , ” Hume captioned the tweet .
“ The White House Press Secretary Kylie Macaroni was asked why her boss would criticize Biden for doing what the CDC tells us to do , wear a face mask in public , and she had a very good answer for that , ” Kimmel said during his nightly monologue last night .
The liberal ABC television host then played a clip of McEnany telling reporters , “ The president ’ s excited to see that Joe emerged from the basement @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that in his basement right next to his wife he ’ s not wearing a mask but he ’ s wearing one outdoors when he ’ s socially distanced , so I think that there was a discrepancy there.
” “ No you don ’ t , you don ’ t think that , ” Kimmel retorted .
“ You ’ re a willfully ignorant woman.
” The clip shows once again that there ’ s nothing the Left hates more than a proud conservative woman like McEnany .
Liberals like Kimmel claim @ @ @ @ @ @ @ rights , but they only apply this to women who subscribe to their ideologies .
For conservatives like McEnany , all of this is thrown out the window , and no attack is too sexist or below the belt on them .
The hypocrisy of liberals never ceases to amaze .

For conservatives like McEnany, all of this is thrown out the window, and no attack is too sexist or below the belt on them. The hypocrisy of liberals never ceases to amaze.

thepoliticalinsider--2020-05-27--CNN’s Jim Acosta Says Trump Is Lying About Mail-In Voting Being Ripe For Voter Fraud

On Tuesday , CNN ’ s senior White House correspondent Jim Acosta bashed President Donald Trump for accusing Twitter of election interference , due to them fact-checking his tweets regarding Democrats ’ push for mail-in ballots in the 2020 presidential election .
Acosta : ‘ This is one of the president ’ s oldest lies ’ “ The president was lashing out at Twitter just a few moments ago , saying he ’ s not going to stand for — as he describes it — interfering in the 2020 election , ” Acosta said .
“ His campaign manager , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ coming , that Silicon Valley will pull out all the stops to prevent the president from getting his message out .
The White House press secretary , Kayleigh McEnany , was putting out tweets just a short while ago trying to establish a claim between mail-in balloting and widespread voter fraud when there isn ’ t a proven connection .
This has been going on for some time now.
” Acosta claimed , “ This is one of the president ’ s oldest lies.
” RELATED : President Trump Tweets : ‘ Twitter @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Election ’ “ It goes all the way back to the 2016 campaign , ” he continued .
“ He explained that the reason why he lost the popular vote to Hillary Clinton was because of undocumented immigrants voting in the 2016 election .
We should point out that he established a voter fraud commission to find widespread voter fraud .
That commission produced no evidence of widespread voter fraud.
” The CNN personality went on , “ And so the president is going back to essentially a social media trick that he @ @ @ @ @ @ @ trying to do it again .
And now Twitter and other social media platforms , perhaps others , will follow , are starting to do something about it.
” “ The question is whether or not the president can really do anything about this at this point , ” Acosta insisted .
“ He ’ s threatening to do something about it , but that ’ s all we have tonight from the president , an empty threat he ’ ll do something about it .
We should point out that both know @ @ @ @ @ @ @ this president , this administration for four years now .
Not only does the president have a problem with telling the truth , he has a problem with accepting the truth.
” “ And all the studies have shown on this subject there is no widespread voter fraud in the U.S. and there is no proven link between mail-in balloting and voter fraud , ” Acosta said .

“The president was lashing out at Twitter just a few moments ago, saying he’s not going to stand for — as he describes it — interfering in the 2020 election,” Acosta said. “His campaign manager, Brad Parscale, said they saw this coming, that Silicon Valley will pull out all the stops to prevent the president from getting his message out.

They unmasked an American citizen in General Michael Flynn , then leaked the information to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ by up to 10 years in prison .
They publicly pushed a Russia collusion narrative in an effort to take down the President , despite transcripts showing they knew there was no evidence of any such actions .

Unfortunately for Milano , however , this quickly blew up in her face when social media users made it clear that it was the unmasked woman who was in the right here , and that the mob went too far .
Here are some examples of the backlash Milano has received since this video was posted : • “ You ’ re the most Un-American person I have ever @ @ @ @ @ @ @ are well deserved.

Limbaugh himself , in his Tuesday radio show , commented on his medical situation , “ These are extremely challenging times for me @ @ @ @ @ @ @ you haven ’ t gone through or aren ’ t going through , and those of you who have , or those of you who are going though it , you understand it .
The temptation here is to start divulging a lot of stuff , I ’ m not gon na do that because I vowed not to be a cancer patient on the radio .
I ’ m in the third wave of treatment now .
There have been many cycles but this is the third wave and , this current @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is kicking my ass.
” He remains optimistic for the immediate term , “ For the last seven days , I have been virtually worthless , virtually useless .
I haven ’ t left the house , I haven ’ t done much of anything except just try to rest and relax .

I ’ m doing extremely well , all things considered.
” And his faith @ @ @ @ @ @ @ wake up and the first thing I do is thank God that I did .
Just waking up is a blessing .
I know many of you are praying daily and nightly , I happen to believe that they work .
I believe that they are sustaining me .
I pray for the energy to be able to do this.
” But the daily toll of the show is not easy , “ I didn ’ t realize until I got sick , I honestly didn ’ t , I didn ’ t @ @ @ @ @ @ @ [ the program demands ] .
” He noted that show execs have “ best-of ” episodes and other hosts ready if he needs a day or two off , “ I hope that it doesn ’ t happen… and I ’ m not making any excuses .
As to how the treatment is going… I ’ m still here and that ’ s all that ’ s important.
” Limbaugh mentioned that his diagnosed treatment “ works in 97 percent of patients ” however was not effective with him because of a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
“ That one percent mutation is theorized to nullify the second phase of treatment that we tried.
” He , finally , spoke about the future , “ The day is going to come where I ’ m not going to be able to be here and I ’ m hoping that it is months , years .
I ’ m hoping the cycle that we ’ re in does its magic , but the day is going to come that it won ’ t be possible to be here every day @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , I ’ m gon na take it.
” For all decent people with compassion , regardless of politics or ideology , his struggle for survival and his fight to remain at his post are inspiring lessons in courage from a man who is likely the most important broadcaster of his generation .

thepoliticalinsider--2020-05-27--Top Public Health Official In Norway Says Lockdowns May Have Been Unnecessary To Control Coronavirus

The director of Norway ’ s Institute of Public Health has just publicly spoken out to say that the country may have been able to achieve the same level of coronavirus mitigation even if it had not adopted aggressive lockdown policies .
Like much of the rest of the world , Norway decided to begin implementing strict stay-at-home rules in mid-March , even though they barely had any cases of the virus .
Now , one top official is saying this may have been a mistake .
“ It does not mean that we do not stand by the advice @ @ @ @ @ @ @ base we had at the time , ” said Camilla Stoltenberg , director general of the Institute of Public Health , according to The Local .
“ Our assessment now , and I find that there is a broad consensus in connection with the reopening , was that one could achieve perhaps the same effect and avoid some of the unfortunate impacts by not closing , but by keeping open with infection control measures.
” The agency that Stoltenberg presides over did not even call for the closures of school , saying it @ @ @ @ @ @ @ might be in the future .
If there is indeed a second wave of coronavirus , which many experts have predicted , Stoltenberg is recommending that Norway not take such aggressive measures to lockdown .
“ I think it will take a lot .
And there is a strong willingness on the part of all parties to find instruments that are more gentle and more flexible , ” she said .
“ What is needed is a commitment from the entire population to follow the infection prevention advice.
” This comes as an @ @ @ @ @ @ @ we went too far with our own coronavirus lockdown orders .
Many Democratic leaders have taken this opportunity to implement incredibly strict lockdown measures , trying to control nearly every aspect of our lives .
If it becomes apparent to more people that America made the same mistake that Norway did , we can only imagine the chaos that will ensue .

“It does not mean that we do not stand by the advice we gave then, given the knowledge base we had at the time,” said Camilla Stoltenberg, director general of the Institute of Public Health, according to The Local. “Our assessment now, and I find that there is a broad consensus in connection with the reopening, was that one could achieve perhaps the same effect and avoid some of the unfortunate impacts by not closing, but by keeping open with infection control measures.”

thepoliticalinsider--2020-05-28--Pelosi And Schiff Surrender To Trump On FISA Bill

President Donald Trump notched another win in his ongoing struggle with House Speaker Nancy Pelosi ( D-CA ) , Rep. Adam Schiff ( D-CA ) , and the rest of the House Democrats .
After Trump issued a veto threat on Wednesday , Pelosi called off her attempt to ram the premature measure to the desk of the president .
The bill would have reauthorized FISA courts in their present form , the kind of courts that authorized the illegal surveillance of the Trump campaign in 2016 .
This is a big win for the president .
Democrats had already @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of earlier objections from Trump .
But Pelosi and Majority Leader Steny Hoyer ( D-MD ) definitely pulled the bill Thursday morning when House Republicans would not support it .
That would make the overriding president ’ s veto impossible , given the two-thirds majority needed to overcome a presidential veto .
“ The President tweeted that he would veto the bill , and House Republicans abandoned their support for our national security , ” Pelosi whined after she was made to surrender to Trump and the GOP .
The House instead voted @ @ @ @ @ @ @ conference committee with the Senate to work out a compromise .
House members appointed to the committee are key Democrats and Republicans on the Judiciary and Intelligence Committees : Reps. Adam Schiff , Jerrold Nadler ( D-NY ) , Zoe Lofgren ( D-CA ) , Devin Nunes ( R-CA ) , and Jim Jordan ( R-OH ) .
In a tweet on Tuesday , Trump asked Republicans in the House to vote against the bill .
GOP House leaders worked against the measure as a result of the president ’ s request , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of trying to pass the measure by themselves or convening a conference committee .
They backed down and went to conference .
“ If the FISA Bill is passed tonight on the House floor , I will quickly VETO it , ” Trump tweeted before the vote .
“ Our Country has just suffered through the greatest political crime in its history .
The massive abuse of FISA was a big part of it !
” Pelosi disagreed : “ Clearly because House Republicans have prioritized politics over our national security , we @ @ @ @ @ @ @ majority .
It will be our intention to go to conference in order to ensure that all of the views of all members of our caucus are represented in the final product.
” On Thursday , Trump thanked GOP House members for stopping the proposed FISA legislation , saying on Twitter , it “ would just perpetuate the abuse that produced the Greatest Political Crime In the History of the U.S. , the Russian Witch-Hunt.
” Pelosi and the House Democrats knew full well that the president would never sign the bill in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ?
That would be giving the stamp of approval to the process that held him , his office , and the country hostage for years to an unethical and corrupt system that targeted members of his team because they had the temerity to run against and beat the anointed candidate of the DC establishment : Hillary Clinton .
The Democrats and Pelosi may now try to use the veto threat against him in the fall election , saying he made the threat to escape further scrutiny .
But after the long and wasted @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the American public knows better than to accept Democrat talking points on this subject .

President Donald Trump notched another win in his ongoing struggle with House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA), Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA), and the rest of the House Democrats. After Trump issued a veto threat on Wednesday, Pelosi called off her attempt to ram the premature measure to the desk of the president. The bill would have reauthorized FISA courts in their present form, the kind of courts that authorized the illegal surveillance of the Trump campaign in 2016. This is a big win for the president.
Democrats had already cancelled a FISA vote on Wednesday because of earlier objections from Trump. But Pelosi and Majority Leader Steny Hoyer (D-MD) definitely pulled the bill Thursday morning when House Republicans would not support it. That would make the overriding president’s veto impossible, given the two-thirds majority needed to overcome a presidential veto.
“The President tweeted that he would veto the bill, and House Republicans abandoned their support for our national security,” Pelosi whined after she was made to surrender to Trump and the GOP.
The House instead voted 284-122 on Thursday to go to a conference committee with the Senate to work out a compromise. House members appointed to the committee are key Democrats and Republicans on the Judiciary and Intelligence Committees: Reps. Adam Schiff, Jerrold Nadler (D-NY), Zoe Lofgren (D-CA), Devin Nunes (R-CA), and Jim Jordan (R-OH).

GOP House leaders worked against the measure as a result of the president’s request, leaving Pelosi and House Democrats the options of trying to pass the measure by themselves or convening a conference committee. They backed down and went to conference.

Pelosi disagreed: “Clearly because House Republicans have prioritized politics over our national security, we will no longer have a bipartisan veto-proof majority. It will be our intention to go to conference in order to ensure that all of the views of all members of our caucus are represented in the final product.”
On Thursday, Trump thanked GOP House members for stopping the proposed FISA legislation, saying on Twitter, it “would just perpetuate the abuse that produced the Greatest Political Crime In the History of the U.S., the Russian Witch-Hunt.”
Thank you to our GREAT Republican Congressmen & Congresswomen on your incredibly important blockage last night of a FISA Bill that would just perpetuate the abuse that produced the Greatest Political Crime In the History of the U.S., the Russian Witch-Hunt. Fantastic Job! — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) May 28, 2020
Pelosi and the House Democrats knew full well that the president would never sign the bill in its present form. How could he? That would be giving the stamp of approval to the process that held him, his office, and the country hostage for years to an unethical and corrupt system that targeted members of his team because they had the temerity to run against and beat the anointed candidate of the DC establishment: Hillary Clinton.
The Democrats and Pelosi may now try to use the veto threat against him in the fall election, saying he made the threat to escape further scrutiny. But after the long and wasted hoax that FISA put into motion, the American public knows better than to accept Democrat talking points on this subject.
