President Trump Drafts Twitter Executive Order

President Trump is drafting an executive order taking aim at social media giant Twitter for fact checking some of his recent tweets. On May 26th, the President sent a series of tweets about mail-in ballots and voter fraud, when the team at twitter editorialized his tweets and added a fact check warning to them.

Fox News are reporting that the President is also considering a commission to look at anti-conservative bias on social media. They have also confirmed that drafts of the executive order seek to curtail the legal protections that social media platforms have regarding user content posted on their sites.
It’s expected that the executive order will apply to section 230 of the 1996 Communications Decency Act, which states “No provider or user of an interactive computer service shall be treated as the publisher or speaker of any information provided by another information content provider.”
What section 230 does, in reality, is protect the social media platforms from legal responsibility of any content posted by its users. The President isn’t alone in his criticism of this legislation. Joe Biden in an interview with the New York Times stated that section 230 should be “revoked, immediately should be revoked.”
Suggesting an imminent announcement, the President tweeted earlier this morning:
