Fact check: Trump's nonsensical op-ed on his lawsuit against social media companies
CNN
He keeps saying it. It's still wrong.
In a Wall Street Journal op-ed on Thursday about his new lawsuits against Facebook, Twitter and YouTube, former President Donald Trump argued that it is "unconstitutional" for social media companies to prevent specific people from posting or to block specific kinds of statements. The op-ed -- which was published under Trump's name but was written in far more legalistic and restrained language than Trump usually uses -- contends that "Big Tech companies are being used to impose illegal and unconstitutional government censorship." It declares that "the tech companies are doing the government's bidding, colluding to censor unapproved ideas" and that, "in effect, Big Tech has been illegally deputized as the censorship arm of the U.S. government."More Related News
