Jack Dorsey - Page 6

It has been eight days since the New York Post was locked out of its Twitter account for sharing its bombshell story that claimed that Hunter Biden leveraged his father’s position as Vice President at the time to benefit his business dealings. The platform has refused to budge over its extreme censorship of the Post, even as it allows Rachel Maddow and an army of verified leftists to spread misinformation about Rudy Giuliani created by a teenager.

In an appearance on Thursday’s broadcast of “Fox & Friends,” Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH) expressed his hope the U.S. Senate, under control of Republicans, would use its subpoena power to call Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey and Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg to testify about the suppression of information ahead of next month’s presidential election.

Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX) and Glenn Beck discussed Big Tech and the corporate media’s handling of the bombshell New York Post bombshell stories about Hunter Biden, describing the social media Masters of the Universe as crossing a threshold “that’s never been crossed before.”  Cruz describes the censorship of the Post as “Silicon Valley oligarchs declaring the authority to determine what the press is allowed to report, and who’s allowed to see it.”

Following the recent censorship of the New York Post’s bombshell story about Democratic Presidential candidate Joe Biden, his son Hunter, and alleged ties to Burisma, the Post reviewed the Twitter accounts of multiple Twitter employees revealing deep anti-Trump bias within the company.

The Twitter account of the New York Post remains locked, two days after it was censored by the platform over its publication of a bombshell story revealing more alleged links between the Biden family and the Ukrainian energy giant Burisma.

The Republican National Committee (RNC) on Friday filed a complaint to the Federal Election Commission (FEC) claiming that Twitter’s censorship of a New York Post story amounted to an “illegal corporate in-kind contribution” to the Joe Biden presidential campaign.

Following Twitter’s decision to censor all links to the New York Post’s bombshell story revealing that Democratic Presidential Candidate Joe Biden allegedly met with executives from a Ukrainian energy firm employing his son, Hunter Biden, on the basis of its “hacked materials” policy, the company has announced big changes to the policy. CEO Jack Dorsey added that “Straight blocking of URLs was wrong, and we updated our policy and enforcement to fix.”

The Senate Judiciary Committee announced plans to subpoena Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey after the platform engaged in an unprecedented censorship spree, suspending the account of the New York Post, and locking the accounts of the Trump campaign as well as White House press secretary Kayleigh McEnany, in the space of 24 hours.

Sebastian Gorka said Twitter instantly locked his account and demanded he delete a tweet about Hunter Biden and the FBI on Thursday, revealing the digital censorship moments after it happened on the same day’s edition of SiriusXM’s Breitbart News Daily with host Alex Marlow.

A spokesperson for Twitter defended the company’s decision to censor a bombshell story from the New York Post about Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden and his son Hunter. The company is citing its policy on “hacked materials” as the reason why it decided to limit its users’ ability to share the story, but it is not clear that any hacking was involved in procuring the trove of emails at all.

Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey finally issued a public comment on his platform’s decision to censor what is arguably the top story in America today, the New York Post’s publication of a cache of emails revealing hitherto unknown alleged links between Vice President Joe Biden and Burisma, a Ukrainian gas giant for which his son worked.

Sen. Ted Cruz sent a letter to Jack Dorsey charging Twitter’s censorship of a New York Post story alleging Hunter Biden facilitated a meeting between a Ukrainian gas company and Joe Biden amounts to an “obvious and transparent attempt” by Twitter to influence the 2020 presidential election.

Twitter said it would not label a video posted by Joe Biden with the “manipulated media” tag, despite doing the same to a pro-Trump video that was not edited.

In what has become an increasingly common occurrence this election season, Twitter has censored another one of the President’s tweets, this time about his personal recovery from coronavirus.

Twitter allowed wishes of death against President Donald Trump from its verified leftist users to stay on the platform Friday morning after the President announced that he and First Lady Melania Trump tested positive for the Chinese coronavirus. Twitter clearly states that “hoping that someone dies as a result of a serious disease” is a violation of the platform’s terms of service, but has not taken widespread action against its “blue check” users.

A Japanese man dubbed the “Twitter Killer” has pleaded guilty to murdering nine people after arranging meetings with them via the social network, in what has become one of the country’s most shocking and high-profile serial killings. 

Former Twitter CEO Dick Costolo recently tweeted that “me-first capitalists” who disagree with injecting political activism into their workplaces will be “the first people lined up against the wall and shot in the revolution.” The company has not commented if the tweet by Costolo, who has an estimated net worth of $300 million, violates its policies against glorifying violence.

A tweet encouraging arson in Louisville, Kentucky, posted a day before violent riots once again broke out across multiple American cities including Louisville, did not violate the Twitter rules, according to a spokeswoman for the tech company.

Gateway Pundit reporter Cassandra Fairbanks was recently suspended from Twitter for tweeting her support of Kyle Rittenhouse, who was recently arrested over the shooting of three rioters in Kenosha, Wisconsin. In response, lawyers for Rittenouse warned Twitter that they intend to hold the platform “fully liable.”

Twitter locked the account of bestselling conservative author Ann Coulter over a tweet praising Kyle Rittenhouse, despite the fact that the platform initially informed her that her tweet did not violate the rules.

Twitter reinstated the account for the Young Conservatives of Texas organization following a two-day suspension. Twitter claims that the account was suspended by a “spam filter” that is built into the platform.

Twitter recently suspended the account of the Team Trump On Tour group, which is traveling across the country in support of President Trump ahead of the Republican National Convention. The company has reinstated the account, blaming the suspension on a mistake.

Twitter has allowed the conspiracy theory that Post Office mailboxes are being “locked” to prevent Americans mailing in their ballots to spread unchecked on the platform, despite intensifying censorship of conservatives, including President Donald Trump, on dubious grounds of “misinformation” over the past few months.

Sen. Kamala Harris (D-CA), now Joe Biden’s vice presidential nominee, once demanded that Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey ban President Donald Trump from the social media giants’ platform.
