Trump Warns Facebook, Google and Twitter Censoring Conservatives Might Be Illegal! (Video)




The Left is obviously denying anyone on the Right is under any kind of attack or censorship from Big Tech (Facebook, Google and Twitter) but those of us who have been feeling and seeing it know better. STR has been under heavy assault from Facebook for years, and IMO it like many small conserv pages were the testing grounds over the years for what is now happening on a massive scale.

FB has repeatedly suspended yours truly for no reason whatsoever. (Feel free to go through my timeline and you'll see posts over the last few years citing the censorship with screenshot examples) Posts to groups have been cited as spam only to have FB concede they are not after challenges were issued. Yet even after FB admitted I did no wrong they left me on suspension!

Twitter is not issuing STR suspensions, but is heavily shadow banning @BMartin1776. I have posted over 96K tweets, and there have been some doozies from time to time that should've gone viral but were DOA. How do I know this? Because similar tweets from others did go viral! You would think someone who posts 96K tweets, providing content not just blather or trolling, would have a large following, nope. The account was opened in 2009 and to this day has only 2600+ followers, AFTER getting a boost from a celebrity and a friend, that's it. They too are shadow banned because between the two of them there;s just shy of a million followers, where a fraction answered their call to help me out.

As for Google, try finding a Op posted by STR in a search. You won't find STR posts 10-20 pages back either! On Google+ STR posts about Mark Levin were being removed, with no warning or reason!

So the censoring does exist, when the left denies it they're lying. Enter Pres Trump...



Trump is seeing it himself, the White House is getting complains, he's hearing it from Reps Jim Jordan, Matt Gaetz, Mark Meadows and other GOP members of Congress. He's seen the abuse against conservative speakers/ activists like Candice Owens and the daily threats against Dana Loesch and the NRA.

There's plenty of proof he and the admin have seen, so much so Trump told reporters today that what Big Tech is doing "may not be legal"!



Big Tech is out of control. They KNOW what they're doing, and have taken it too far. STR is all for small govt. The last thing we need is more govt regs, but when you are engaged in a business platform taking money from candidates or rejecting it, while entertaining an opposing candidate whose politics lean your way, while you're manipulating information when it comes to the outcome of an election you got problems!

Television and radio companies are all privately owned companies like Big Tech, BUT they are now under federal oversight because they became far too influential in American politics and social issues. What's happening with Big Tech is the same difference. The medium has changed but the acts of suppression and favoritism exists.

If Big Tech companies want to avoid coming under the govts thumb all they have to do is stop the censorship, make it fair like POTUS said, "You know what we want? Not regulation, we just want fairness." Stop telling users what they can and cannot see, giving them the tools/ filters to determine what they want to see. If, not get ready for Big Brother to take over.

Senate Democrats Draft Plan For Federal Takeover of Internet


When Leftists patronize people on the Right, saying "we don't want to take your rights away," "no one is going to take your rights away," you know they're full of crap and now we have proof of it.

Thanks to an unknown "patriot", a draft was leaked to Axios that's been making its way around Senate democrats, which was authored by Sen Mark Warren & staff, outlining plans for a govt takeover the internet! Yes America we're there, the crazy talk is now becoming reality.

Democrats know they're screwed which is why we're seeing more and more conservative voices being silenced online. People are becoming immune to the lies and deceit, especially minorities they thought they would always have in their back pocket. The Left calls Trump a dictator even though he's done nothing even remotely close to what obama actually did. These people are so threatened by him they are in fact crafting the authoritarian govt we've known they've always wanted. In a way you can chalk this up as another win for Trump, because his policies are smoking these commies out.

Warrens draft list 20 ways govt can step in to address problems Big Tech is facing from Russians and fake news sites, "ranging from putting a price on individual users' data to funding media literacy programs."


"Options listed in the paper run the gamut from those that are relatively small lifts to more sweeping policy options.

● New resources and roles for government: The paper raises the prospect of new federal funding for media literacy programs that could help consumers sort through the information on online platforms. It also describes the military and intelligence communities as not adequately prepared for foreign information operations and includes various measures for bolstering their capabilities.

● New rules for platforms: The paper considers requiring web platforms to label bot accounts or do more to identify authentic accounts, with the threat of sanction by the Federal Trade Commission if they fail to do so.

● But it also goes further: One idea would be to make platforms legally liable for claims like "defamation, invasion of privacy, false light, and public disclosure of private facts" if they fail to take down doctored video and audio or so-called deep fakes (or fabricated footage), if a victim secured a necessary judgement regarding the sharing of that content.

● Another would hang an "essential facility" label on certain widely-used tech products, like Google Maps. That would require them to offer access on "fair, reasonable and non-discriminatory" terms and not engage in "self-dealing or preferential conduct."
New powers for consumers: Warner’s staffers raised the idea of a law mimicking Europe’s GDPR privacy rules in the United States or offering a more limited right for users to consent to the use of their data.
The report also suggested that, to increase visibility into competition, platforms could put a monetary value on an individual user’s data."


The internet is the last true place for freedom of speech to be expressed, you can do just about anything, the last thing we need are these closet communists taking it over. But take note they know in reality plans like this will never get through legislatively (unless they hold a super majority and even then it's high risk) so they're banking on their Leftists pals in Big Tech to do their dirty work. While this site is no fan of Alex Jones he IS, as he tweeted out today, the canary in the coal mine for what is coming. If you don't like that future and want it stopped, you better get active and vote, it's not an option this November.
