THE WHITE HOUSE OUTSOURCES IT'S ABUSE OF HUMAN RIGHTS: Biden Administration Asked Twitter to Ban Alex Berenson, And They Did

 The video above is not on topic. It is posted so you can see who Alex Berenson is, and what he does.

From Alex Berenson:

Biden Administration officials asked Twitter to ban me because of my tweets questioning the Covid vaccines, even as company employees believed I had followed Twitter’s rules, internal Twitter communications reveal.

In a White House meeting in April 2021, four months before Twitter suspended my account, the company faced “one really tough question about why Alex Berenson hasn’t been kicked off from the platform,” a Twitter employee wrote.

The employee recounted the meeting discussion afterwards on Twitter’s internal Slack messaging system. The message, and others, make clear that top federal officials targeted me specifically, potentially violating my basic First Amendment right to free speech.

The First Amendment does not apply to private companies like Twitter. But if the companies are acting on behalf of the federal government they can become “state actors” that must allow free speech and debate, just as the government does.

Previous efforts to file state action lawsuits against the government and social media companies for working together to ban users have failed. Courts have universally held that people who have been banned have not shown the specific demands from government officials that are necessary to support state action claims.

By the way, here is Alex's response:

If you’re wondering if I plan to sue the Biden Administration for violating my First Amendment rights by pressing Twitter to ban me… 

That would be yes.

Fascism is where government intervenes in the life of citizens by instructing business how to operate,

How far has the (D, Dominion), party fallen. The party that scolds the rest of us over civil rights and oppressed peoples. But that is not accurate. It is far more how far the mask has fallen.
