\n President Trump took to Twitter Tuesday to slam the social media platform and others in \u201cbiased Big Tech\u201d for using Section 230 to leave up disparaging content against conservatives, while censoring conservative speech.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhy does Twitter leave phony pictures like this up, but take down Republican\/Conservative pictures and statements that are true?\u201d the commander-in-chief tweeted Tuesday morning.<\/p>\n

The tweet included a picture of the viral \u201cMoscow Mitch\u201d meme, which took the internet by storm in mid-2019 when Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) blocked an election security bill.<\/p>\n

McConnell, known for his sense of humor about political attacks and nicknames, was particularly incensed at the \u201cMoscow Mitch\u201d moniker, given his Congressional history of being a Russia hawk.<\/p>\n

\u201cMitch must fight back and repeal Section 230, immediately. Stop biased Big Tech before they stop you!\u201d President Trump continued in his tweet, referencing the majority leader.<\/p>\n

Section 230 of the 1996 Communications Decency Act provides tech companies with liability protections against illegal content posted by third party users.<\/p>\n

In May, the Justice Department released a 25-page proposal on its website in which they recommended curbing protections that tech platforms have enjoyed since 1996.<\/p>\n

That proposal came amid criticism, including from Trump, that large social media companies censor conservative voices while letting other controversial material, including some criminal content, run amok.<\/p>\n

That same month, the president signed an executive order curtailing Section 230 which mostly focused on how platforms moderate content as some companies faced accusations of censorship.<\/p>\n

\u201cTwitter, Facebook, Instagram, and YouTube wield immense, if not unprecedented, power to shape the interpretation of public events; to censor, delete, or disapp<\/a>ear information; and to control what people see or do not see,\u201d the commander-in-chief\u2019s order stated.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe must seek transparency and accountability from online platforms, and encourage standards and tools to protect and preserve the integrity and openness of American discourse and freedom of expression.\u201d\n <\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
