Sec. 2. Protections Against Online Censorship. (a) It is the policy of the United States to foster clear ground rules promoting free and open debate on the internet. Prominent among the ground rules governing that debate is the immunity from liability created by section 230(c) of the Communications Decency Act (section 230(c)). 47 U.S.C. 230(c).
Sec. 3. Protecting Federal Taxpayer Dollars from Financing Online Platforms That Restrict Free Speech. (a) The head of each executive department and agency (agency) shall review its agency's Federal spending on advertising and marketing paid to online platforms.
Sec. 4. Federal Review of Unfair or Deceptive Acts or Practices. (a) It is the policy of the United States that large online platforms, such as Twitter and Facebook, as the critical means of promoting the free flow of speech and ideas today, should not restrict protected speech.
Sec. 5. State Review of Unfair or Deceptive Acts or Practices and Anti-Discrimination Laws. (a) The Attorney General shall establish a working group regarding the potential enforcement of State statutes that prohibit online platforms from engaging in unfair or deceptive acts or practices.
Utterly unconstitutional and based on unconstitutional and invalid federal law, all of which has no constitutional authority Nowhere does the Constitution authorize the feds to regulate private individual or private company behavior, ESPECIALLY speech.Instead of curtailing the already massively unconstitutional federal government and acts, Trump is unwittingly expanding such unconstitutional power of the feds into an even greater totalitarian power.
This is not the road to making America great again. This is the road to destroying America and the road to ruin.
They lose their liability exemption for content if they censor anyway, and are exposed to libel and slander litigation.
That just might work then.
If they have a privileged exemption from libel and slander on the grounds that they are a neutral platform, then failure to remain neutral strips them of that exemption. And the federal government won’t send them any ad business. Nothing unconstitutional about any of that.
You haven’t really studied this issue, have you?
If you’re a Trump supporter - or just want America, the idea, to survive - please splash this video on your social media...until their respective Gestpo agents pull it! Both links are functional.
IN 3+ MINUTE VIDEO, KIRK LAYS OUT WHY I AND MILLIONS OF OTHERS PUT DONALD TRUMP IN THE WHITE HOUSE. LET’S GIVE HIM A CONGRESS THAT SUPPORTS THOSE SAME IDEAS!!

I like your approach..I plan to adopt it.
More like two!!!
Read the freaking EO (the text is part of my post).
Much more than the federal government not sending them any ad business.
That was collected on behalf of the deep state run federal agencies.
I am not happy about this. Let the market control the media.
This takes away the neutral platform law and places them where they should be - content providers.
But the REAL beauty of what this accomplishes, is that if opens the way to multiple regression and finding X and Y where there are lots of rows.
...film at 11...
>> feds to regulate private individual or private company
Thought both Twitter & FB were publicly held entities that trade on the federally regulated stock exchange?
>>>>You havent really studied this issue, have you?<<<<
On FR someone posted something completely ignorant without knowing what they are talking about, like reading the article in question? No. Not here. Not ever. /s
Oh you mean the stock exchange that is unconstitutionally federally regulated so the feds can then unconstitutionally interfere with private individuals and private enterprise?
And people don’t think the mostly unconstitutional feds are not totalitarian. Think again.
Concern troll is concerned
This is like saying go invent your own
communications utility
We conservatives are being censored within the public
spectrum we the people ALL own
If I shop at Grocery store A. I am happy and satisfied.
Sometimes I shop at Grocery store B.
Grocery store A gets mad and cuts my access off.
Both have the same access and price.
Why cannot go shop at Grocery store B and let store A suffer?
It pains me to say this - “Do I need the government to save me and Store B?
I do NOT want the government involved at all. Stay out of my life!
Does this mean that all the conservatives serving time in Zuckerberg’s prison have been freed from their irons?
Since Antifa is using Twitter to coordinate the riots, there needs to be some liability for the destruction.

No hardly. Ask At&t and Microsoft. Once they become more than a company and become a utility that
1. Violates the 1st Amendment of a political group
2. Interjects themselves into elections
3. Side with foreign enemies like China
to me, this is rather tame. Personally they should be classified as domestic enemies just due to their relationship with China who is going to go out og their way to influence iur elections.
