Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey proposes editorializing the tweets of world leaders like Trump

A handful of companies are controlling the majority of the world’s conversations, subtly introducing rules to close the gap of what ideas they find acceptable and slowly edging out those they don’t.

One of the most prominent ways that tech companies have been doing that, of late, is the result of realizing that they get ample media support and can stay in the good graces of legacy media outlets when they censor content for being “misinformation.”

The guise of protecting the world from “misinformation” is fast becoming the easiest justification for censorship online right now.

Twitter has been one of those companies most accused of negatively impacting the public conversation and pushing for censorship.

Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey talked about this in a livestream with Showtime hosts Desus Nice and The Kid Mero.

“Misleading information is like the challenge of our industry right now,” Dorsey said in the Periscoped stream.

The hosts were eager to discuss what Dorsey had in mind for punishing those who say things that is deemed to be “misinformation.”

The example they gave is, what would happen if President Trump tweeted “potentially harmful” statements about the coronavirus?

Dorsey responded that “labeling would come in really handy,” and talked about Twitter’s recent policy announcement that is aimed to tackle the tweets of public leaders.

“When it’s broadcast on television, you have no ability to talk back,” Dorsey said, and while you may not think it based on Twitter’s recent actions, the ability for users to comment and disagree is an important part of Twitter, Dorsey at least says he believes.

Dorsey said that instead of removing the tweets of world leaders, Twitter will instead introduce an “interstitial.”

“Anything that we can do to interstitial a lot of this and provide context that is credible and might show a disagreement or a debate around the topic, I think, would be helpful,” Dorsey said.

Former Obama DNI James Clapper Was Upset that Mitch McConnell Would Not Sit for Briefing on His BS Russian Conspiracies

Earlier this week we discovered the Trump-Russia entire dossier was completely fabricated.

Dossier author Christopher Steele admitted he destroyed his notes and “wiped” his computer after creating the junk dossier.

And the Comey FBI and Obama DOJ ran with the dossier anyway in order to destroy and remove Donald Trump from office.

This was a huge development.

And Deep State operatives linked to John Podesta GOT PAID to say it was legit!

Now a new book is coming out by David Rohde that claims former corrupt DNI James Clapper was upset that GOP Leader would not sit for a briefing on his BS Russian conspriracies.

Of course, Paul Ryan was more than willing to sit for the absolute garbage briefing.

McConnell would not sit for the briefing until September of 2016.

We now know that Russia spent a grand total of 100,000 on Facebook ads during the election which was meaningless.

And we know the Russian dossier was complete bullsh*t.

Clapper should be jailed with John Brennan

The Washington Examiner reported:

Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell’s apparent lack of enthusiasm to combat Russian interference in the 2016 election changed spy chief James Clapper’s opinion of the top Republican.

According to David Rohde’s recently published book, In Deep: The FBI, the CIA and the Truth about America’s “Deep State,” McConnell repeatedly told the Obama administration he did not have time to be briefed on Russian interference. In late summer 2016, President Barack Obama asked intelligence officials to brief the four top Democrats and Republicans in Congress on the election meddling before it became public. Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid, House Speaker Paul Ryan, and House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi quickly received the briefings, the book said.

“When Clapper called McConnell to set up the briefing, he did not respond. McConnell finally received the briefing in early September,” Rohde wrote.

Clapper, the director of national intelligence from 2010 to January 2017, said he was surprised that some Republicans, particularly McConnell, did not take election interference more seriously.
