PING!
Since the DC swamp refused to do away with their legal protection from prosecution the only weapon available is boycotting them and that’s not likely to happen since social media is a mental respirator for so many people.
There’s a whole lotta “you guys have to...” lately. To everybody who insists I must do anything: BITE ME. You think it’s important do it. Stop demanding crap from me.
DeSantis is going to be a tough contender a lot of Trump in that man.
The answer to Big Tech is NOT MORE unconstitutional government interference in free enterprise. The answer is OPEN COMPETION in the free market with rich and smart Patriots entering the marketplace FREE from government interference to OUT-COMPETE and win in all areas.

Thereby avoiding accountability and having to do anything. The hearings are always a farce.
What is to keep red state legislatures from passing state laws to circumvent Federal section 230 law granting social media companies immunity from defamation suits if they censor posts on their platforms. Seems the Feds have jurisdiction to extend that immunity on a Federal level for suits brought in Federal court but a case can be made that, on a state level, that the states have sole jurisdiction to set forth evidentiary rules within state courts. It is worth a try for Desantis to get the state legislature to pass such a bill to shoot across the bow of the social media companies who will have to defend actions in those states. Politically, it sends the message that even though the Dems are in control of the Federal government, red states are going to penalize the social media companies for their censorship of conservatives and they better cut it out or it is going to be expensive for them. In the end, the SC may strike down the red state laws but the social media companies will be on notice that this is just a start of the legal harassment they can get on the state level. DeSantis is definitely moving in that direction. Good for him.
All red states must forbid use of Facebook, google, Amazon etc by all subdivisions of the government.
They cannot be trusted to truthfully disseminate information, not store it.
Same with banks that participate in bans of gun stores or whatever
This is the same as sanctuary cities refusing to enforce federal immigration law.
If enough red states act in concert the feds won’t have the manpower to enforce unconstitutional decrees without state assistance.
If only blue states accept these destructive decrees while red states actively oppose them the power of DC to tyrannize will decline.
No. The Red States need to join together and secede to form a new Republic.
DeSantis can run for Prez of that new country.
Today Ron DeSantis announced ‘critical race theory’ will NOT be taught in any Florida public schools.
