Daily Mail: Donald Trump threatens to 'strongly regulate or close' social media for trying to 'silence conservative voices' after Twitter fact-checks two of his 'misleading' tweets
* President Donald Trump warned Wednesday morning that his administration will begin to regulate and shut down social media sites – like Twitter and Facebook
* He tweeted that the GOP feels these sites 'totally silence conservatives voices'
* 'We will strongly regulate, or close them down, before we can ever allow this to happen,' the president asserted
* The assertion came as Twitter flagged two of the president's tweets about mail-in ballots as 'misleading' on Tuesday
* Trump claimed Twitter is 'stifling free speech' and accused it of interfering with the 2020 Presidential election
* 'I, as President, will not allow it to happen!' he threatened on Tuesday
* Trump has continued to allege that widespread voter fraud would occur if states sent all Americans mail-in ballots
* Trump mailed in his ballot to vote in Florida last month
* Twitter said Trump's claims of widespread voter fraud were 'unsubstantiated,' as there's 'no evidence' mailed ballots would lead to fraud
Donald Trump demanded Wednesday that social media platforms 'clean up your act' as he warned his administration will begin to regulate and even shutter such websites after Twitter, for the first time ever, fact-checked his tweets.
He lamented in the Twitter thread that conservatives are being silenced and disproportionately regulated on social media websites like Twitter and Facebook as Twitter issued 'misleading' warning labels on two of his tweets about mail-in voting this week.
'Republicans feel that Social Media Platforms totally silence conservatives voices. We will strongly regulate, or close them down, before we can ever allow this to happen,' the president posted to his Twitter Wednesday morning. 'We saw what they attempted to do, and failed, in 2016. We can't let a more sophisticated version of that happen again.'

WNU Editor: I doubt that the President will get anywhere if he decides to regulate social media(which I doubt). This is the person who is probably Twitter's POTUS fact-checker .... Who checks Twitter's POTUS fact-checker? Biased head of Twitter's 'Site Integrity' has previously called the President 'a racist tangerine', the administration 'Nazis' and compared Kellyanne to Joseph Goebbels (Daily Mail). Below are some of his tweets ....

Is there much of a choice?
Jared Yates Sexton
When you looked at him did the gaydar go off?
He claims he is not gay. We shall see.
39 and unmarried? Or confirmed bachelor?
Hard to find out. However, he is heavily touted in the gay press.
Grennells are few and far in between.

On a tangent
Intersection? The Left borrows the term intersection from geometry to try to look smart?
When you see the word intersection bandied about you know that you are going to be propagandized and dumbed down.
No, no liberal bias in the media
He can not legally do that. What does he know? nothing

Actually he can. He is charge of the DOJ. He can sue.
Social Media has been playing a 2-faced game. They have pretended to be utilities so as to not be governed by Federal law, Then they exercise editorial content. Social media has to pick a lane and stay in it.
They did not. SO here come the law suits (DOJ/president), investigations(DOJ/president) and laws (passed by Congress).
Do you know nothing or are you playing dumb?
