Trump accuses Twitter of unfair targeting after company labels tweet 'glorifying violence'

by

President Trump on Friday accused Twitter of unfairly targeting himself and other Republicans, just hours after the social media giant said one of his tweets overnight violated the company’s policies by glorifying violence.

Trump also called on Congress to revoke Section 230, a law passed two decades ago that offers platforms legal immunity for content posted by third parties and gives them cover to make good-faith efforts to moderate their platforms.

“Twitter is doing nothing about all of the lies & propaganda being put out by China or the Radical Left Democrat Party,” Trump tweeted. “They have targeted Republicans, Conservatives & the President of the United States. Section 230 should be revoked by Congress. Until then, it will be regulated!”
