Exactly! So glad to see him taking a stand here! It’s been really bothering me

[tammyjohnson]

All these companies stocks plummeted today. So much so that the stock market went from a huge positive to a big loss!! That’s how much trouble they are in!!

Censorship is a tool of the powerful to oppress the powerless!

" I wasn't in on that conversation" " there for I won't comment" how refreshing for someone to show some integrity.

Trump should tweet a thousand times a day because it enrages the traitors...

About time. Conservatives, iss time to sue the SWAMP!

“Fact checking” has always been a weapon, it’s never been sincere

I'm going to crawl to the polls. I can stand line for food or water then I can stand in line to vote without a mask

Hope the fact checked channels have a good test pattern when they have nothing to air.

It has been a political weapon almost since its beginning.

What google, FB, YouTube, Twitter, etc need to remember they took down another company and THEY TOO CAN BE TAKEN AWAY TOO!!! Someone will come up with something better!! I can only hope it’s sooner than later!!

America to Twitter.... Stay in your lane bro.

Allow people on all PLATFORMS to exercise FREE SPEECH based on the limitations set forth by Brendenbug v. Ohio (1968)

[dadsonworldwide]

Reform equal opportunity for these companies to hire employees with diverse views.

[tammyjohnson]

Everything is political now!! MORE SO than any time I can remember in life time!!

[TheAntManChannel]

CNN is to facts what Rosie O'Donnel is to being thin.

Trump needs to create his own social media platform. We will all jump ship and Twitter etc will be left on the dust.

[redpill]

People need to have access to BOOKS for their research resource instead of relying on internet searches. That's how you find facts. Not one book but many books either supporting your opinion or your opposition to so called facts.

Brilliant. Even up the playing field. Well done President Trump.

[davidtrottier]

I believe Alex Jones would be a good test case of how fair, honest and unbiased these social media platforms truly are!! 🤔🤪
