Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey apologized on Wednesday night after the social media giant faced backlash over its decision to block links to a story which claims Joe Biden met with a Ukrainian businessman while he was Vice President.

It came just an hour after President Donald Trump threatened to remove the US legal protections that exempts the likes of Twitter and Facebook from liability for the material users post on their networks.

Trump called for the law, known as Section 230, to be repealed as he blasted the social media giants as 'terrible' for 'reducing circulation' of a New York Post article which published the claims about his rival Biden earlier in the day.

Social Media (Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, etc) is managed by far-leftist psychopaths who have more ideologically in common with ISIS, ANTIFA, and BLM than they do with We The People.

Social Media's latest actions to silence anything truthful about Joe Biden, Hunter Biden, and anyone else connected to their systematic corruption is proof of their absolute suppression of the truth.

These creeps are nothing more than tools for the Satanic Globalist Cabal, and free-thinking Conservative Americans have no safe haven or voice at those Godforsaken websites.

Anyone, in his right mind, will stay away from these Orwellian creeps who steal and sell people's personal identification and photos regularly.

Kill Section 230

That won't happen with dems holding the House. But some GOP congresscritters are unpredictable too....

Just revoke their Section 230. Then they become publishers, along with losing their lawsuit immunity, because that is what they’re acting like now.

Jack Dorsey APOLOGIZES...

No he didn't. He tried, and failed, to cover his ass. CYA.

"We screwed up, we upset the twitter community and we apologize..." Now that's an apology.

“Twitter will collapse. It’s in serious decline.”

Good people must spread the word that Twitter is a nasty thing, run by a hateful man.

Facebook will block a story detrimental to Biden but won’t block the Free RV scam. If FB loses that protection, people who fell for the scams that FB allows could sue them.

You’re correct..he’s sorry they didn’t make it more clear why the were and will continue to block the story. Something has to be done about these tech tyrants.

People are already showing up in record numbers to turn out to vote, this is interfering with the election by suppressing this information to benefit Democrats.

but he NEVER apologized for what happened. He only said that they forgot to give an explanation for his fascism. So they added a false explanation that falsely accused the New York Post of hacking.

>>I hope after the election he becomes the tyrant he never was but they accused him to be and he brings hell down upon all of them.<<

2nd term after what they did to him before and during the 1st...Trump has nothing to lose. I say, bring down the house.

Go after the swamp, the propaganda media and the leftist techies, BLM and CRUSH antifa.
