Twitter was already a PUBLICLY traded company. By plain definition, none of the "muh private company," arguments have any merit when literally anyone can buy a share of Twitter and be part owner.
True dat, but the board and the company has a fiduciary responsibility to the share holders and if someone can make a case that revenue was lost due to political shenanigans then they have a civil case. Would be hard to prove most likely, but companies just can’t do anything they want to do.
I don't give a shit. I'm talking about CHANGING the law so that it's not blatantly contradictory. By any reasonable definition, you can't be both public and private simultaneously. They should be held to the standards of the public sector.
None of that is relevant. Show me the part that stops them from violating the bill of rights, or bans them from giving money to political campaigns. Nobody gives a damn how much tax regulation they have to follow.
None of you shills are arguing in good faith on this.
Yeah, but what judge will rule on the side of the Constitution now-a-days. We're all alone in left field with no help.
We all see what's going on, and know what's going on, and they know we know what's going on. That's why they do exactly what they do as far as banning and censoring the truth, and labeling it 'misinformation'.
The government, along with EU governments, collude, conspire, give tech co's guidance, and use their powers to influence a 3rd party to do unconstitutional things.
I posted before listening to the whole interview. He just got home and was speaking off the cuff. More likely he would name many specific members of DNC with roles in, or connections to, govt as well, in addition to DNC, and probably Twitter itself and former employees for the collusion. And it would probably go beyond 1A issue, maybe in a separate case for the repeated harassment and targeted attacks by agents if the DNC making constant online allegations affecting his career.
I initially was just responding to OP's title. Your research was impressive and warranted a better reply after I heard all of Woods comments. If this really goes forward I think it will challenge some assumptions on just how private some political organizations are.
Factor in the DNC was sued by Bernie Sanders after 2016 for the fraud they committed against him and they successfully argued they are a private political organization.
It's all very legalese, but isn't the upshot of all this that Twitter was a public company, the DNC a private organization, and they most probably can do what they want?
I would think the crime is they were "donating" to one political candidate through their actions and may have exceeded what they could donate.
"since they can actually regulate their own candidates"
This part. Also the charge was fraud, not 1A or any constitutional issue. And the finding was the Party is free to select it's own nominee. Any grievances with the process need to be redressed by it's members to the organization. Sorry, no sauce to share. That's the summary based on my recollection.
The October 2020 James Woods tweet that was removed on request of the Biden team:
It was a photoshop of an "I'm on Team Joe" ad that said "I'm on Team Toe" and had a pic of Hunter getting a footjob (blurred) while smoking crack in bed. James Woods added the tagline, "Feets, don't fail me now!"
When I saw the topic I immediately thought of the time he was suspended for a couple of months over the "We aren't voting so women's votes count more" meme. Which, by the way, was an epic meme.
That was pretty out there because it was pre-covid and the "misinformation" bullshit hasn't really kicked in yet, but they were on that like white on rice.
Remember when Trump wasn't allowed to even mute(?) someone on Twitter? But the entire DNC can take the 1st away from a private citizen?! This is infuriating!
James Woods: "I can't speak about this with the informed consent that I would like to, and I can't speak as intelligently as I would like to. But, you know, when you see your name on an enemies list... you want to say to your enemies, "You know? It's really an interesting thing; when you declare somebody is your enemy, they can now say, "you're my enemy, too."
It's a funny thing about the Constitution. I tweeted something today about James Monroe. Do you know how old James Monroe was... (president of the United States, later on) ...do you know how old he was, when they signed the Declaration of Independence? He was 18 years old. 18 years old. Okay? John Adams was 19 years old.
You hear, "Oh, these old, white men wrote the Constitution!" They were teenagers, fighting for an independent way of life. Fighting for rights. The most precious of which, the most precious of which, was the right to free speech.
And the government of the United States conspired to take my free speech, and throw it in the gutter. And there's something they should fear more than anything they have ever imagined in their wildest dreams. The most dangerous man to these corrupt, vile vermin is an American who is not afraid of them.
And Joe Biden? And all those rats that worked with you at the DNC, to close down my speech? I am not afraid of you. And I'm coming for you."
EVERYONE that had their accounts banned should be suing whomever made the request to shut it down. If they've got the proof and request, it's time to fight back and sue their asses!
The thread to pull would be the one where the Democratic congresscritter got involved and started talking 1A concerns. It seems like there are at least some out there who still respect the Bill of Rights.
51 FEDERAL intelligence agents. 1 FEDERAL congressman. Dozens of FEDERAL fbi agents. And yes, any FEDERAL official or actor in contact or a part of the DNC.
Maybe, but there are all kinds of potential FEC violations where this kind of thing is concerned.
There's also possible collusion, which is highly illegal under anti trust. Which I've long contended is one of the keys to all of this bullshit with these companies censoring conservative speech, among others, but I'm not an attorney.
You're absolutely that there are several plausible bases for a potential lawsuit. My point is just that the first amendment, specifically, isn't among them.
While I do agree with you. Now we get to find out if any DNC members that are government officials ordered this or worked with twitter.
We might get some discovery of the DNC as well.
This is fucking incredible. Literally publicly stone and hang everybody involved
Dudes got a 184 IQ or something. Make him The Chief of Staff. Put that White House in order. We need someone who is going to protect President Trump's back. Not someone who will be stabbing him in it.
So the government conspired to violate the civil liberties of it's citizens. What exactly is the penalty for failing to uphold the constitution for your elected office? Also what is the penalty for violating someone's civil liberties?
For a constitutional attorney for torts with slam dunks like this would work on a contingency basis and go massive on a class action suit. It would be a guaranteed monstrous pay day
I think we all could. Our 1st amendment was violated, there was no freedom of the press when the press was getting banned from spreading the information.
How is NY Post not suing the ever loving shit out of everyone involved? Lawsuits should have already been in the works against Google, Twitter, Facebook, basically all MSM etc, even before this confirmation of Twitter malfeasance.
Good news from James Woods
Yes.
NO STANDING.
Should have sued before we silenced him....
Now that we’ve silenced him, you can’t hear him anyway, right? RIGHT?
That can no longer be claimed.
ONLY SITTING
on dicks if you are a judge.
MOOT
Twitter was already a PUBLICLY traded company. By plain definition, none of the "muh private company," arguments have any merit when literally anyone can buy a share of Twitter and be part owner.
Publicly traded does not mean it is a public space. Think restaurant verses public square
True dat, but the board and the company has a fiduciary responsibility to the share holders and if someone can make a case that revenue was lost due to political shenanigans then they have a civil case. Would be hard to prove most likely, but companies just can’t do anything they want to do.
I don't give a shit. I'm talking about CHANGING the law so that it's not blatantly contradictory. By any reasonable definition, you can't be both public and private simultaneously. They should be held to the standards of the public sector.
Certainly you ARE if you're a publicly traded company. SEC, FTC and a shitload of tax codes are addressed to public companies vs private.
None of that is relevant. Show me the part that stops them from violating the bill of rights, or bans them from giving money to political campaigns. Nobody gives a damn how much tax regulation they have to follow.
None of you shills are arguing in good faith on this.
Any government entities own shares? I would be surprised if it was entirely privately owned, as the government owns shares in a lot of stock.
Yes
Yeah, but what judge will rule on the side of the Constitution now-a-days. We're all alone in left field with no help.
We all see what's going on, and know what's going on, and they know we know what's going on. That's why they do exactly what they do as far as banning and censoring the truth, and labeling it 'misinformation'.
The government, along with EU governments, collude, conspire, give tech co's guidance, and use their powers to influence a 3rd party to do unconstitutional things.
Public spaces are owned by the people, through the government. private spaces are owned by non-government, individuals, corporations, etc.
The only Republican who goes straight past the stern letter stage and right to a lawsuit.
That's cause James Wood is a total badass.
Go get 'em James
This
James Woods bitchez
Only the govt can violate your 1A rights. DNC is a private organization. Have to sue govt.
I posted before listening to the whole interview. He just got home and was speaking off the cuff.

Bernie probably just ended up with another house out of the deal.
Wrong. DNC has members in the government and works closely with people in government.
Love this! Good for you James Woods! I support you!
James Woods is the Chuck Norris of good news.
A Class Action Lawsuit is needed.
This.
It needs to target Vijaya
Yes because the DNC will blame Twitter. Since that can't be done any longer, Woods needs to specifically sue Vijaya.
she will just end up having a fatal accident like some crypto investors did after FTX crashed.
It needs to target the DNC operatives on the other side of the email to Vijaya.
AND any Republican ones too. And any from the WEF or similar. They all need to burn.
I’m sure she’s in the Bahamas with Afro boy
Yeah, that's what Woods just said. It would take a while, but worth it.
People should start seeking in this documents if their twitter names were tagged by the dnc for censuring and sue the shit out of those losers.
Great. The DNC will pay him with our money.
at least it's not being spent on campaigns.
I better start seeing many people taking the offense.
The best defense is a good offense. Would multiple single person lawsuits against Dems work better than class action?

Wow, some dnc people will be sacrificed for publicity over this. Talk about an awful heel to die on.
Natalie's feet?
Interesting.

HEHEHE THATS AWSOME.
suit possibly might be time barred, but we'll let the lawyers sort it out.
Remember when Trump wasn't allowed to even mute(?) someone on Twitter? But the entire DNC can take the 1st away from a private citizen?! This is infuriating!
Forgot about that. Unreal
Folks should swing.
While they're set on fire and shot at with poisoned bullets. Let's not take any chances.
Here's a clip of James Woods calling in to Tucker. https://twitter.com/i/status/1598862048351371264
Here's the full interview: https://twitter.com/i/status/1598861405129539585
Here's an extended segment with the full interview: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9RsedoC_PN4
Thank you.
Even better. Here's the full interview. 9 Minutes long.
https://twitter.com/i/status/1598861405129539585
Awesome. Yuge MAGA Props to you.
LOL there's gonna be some awesome fallout which just may make this next two years bearable.
Bread and circuses.
Multiple down votes? Musta hit a nerve lmao
Fucking love that guy.
We din du nuffin...it was all Twitter
Going to need George Floyd 2.0
I guess they finally found a use for Joe Biden.
Woods was so good, I typed it out:
Thank you much.
Good!
EVERYONE that had their accounts banned should be suing whomever made the request to shut it down. If they've got the proof and request, it's time to fight back and sue their asses!
DNC is not (legally) a government actor so that's going to be a tough sell.
Wrong. They have members in government.
All it takes is one meeting, one email chain, one discussion, including said members, and bam...1st Amendment violation.
That would be a violation on the part of those specific individuals and possibly the agencies they work for, not for the DNC as an organization.
lmao wrong.
That is a first Amendment violation on the part of the federal government.
Dumbass.
But not on the part of the DNC. Because, reminder, the DNC is not part of the federal government.
Dumbass.
The thread to pull would be the one where the Democratic congresscritter got involved and started talking 1A concerns. It seems like there are at least some out there who still respect the Bill of Rights.
51 FEDERAL intelligence agents. 1 FEDERAL congressman. Dozens of FEDERAL fbi agents. And yes, any FEDERAL official or actor in contact or a part of the DNC.
So yeah, the DNC too.
Maybe, but there are all kinds of potential FEC violations where this kind of thing is concerned.
There's also possible collusion, which is highly illegal under anti trust. Which I've long contended is one of the keys to all of this bullshit with these companies censoring conservative speech, among others, but I'm not an attorney.
You're absolutely that there are several plausible bases for a potential lawsuit. My point is just that the first amendment, specifically, isn't among them.
I could make an argument that it is, but I probably wouldn't argue that in this case and it doesn't need to be.
While I do agree with you. Now we get to find out if any DNC members that are government officials ordered this or worked with twitter. We might get some discovery of the DNC as well. This is fucking incredible. Literally publicly stone and hang everybody involved
BASED AS FUCK
Dude gets back from the range and eloquitly declares war on the commies on national news. Hard to top.
JAMES WOODS HAS A 184 IQ
James is a NATIONAL TREASURE, and I stand by my call for him to be named the Press Secretary during Trump's next term.
Dudes got a 184 IQ or something. Make him The Chief of Staff. Put that White House in order. We need someone who is going to protect President Trump's back. Not someone who will be stabbing him in it.
THIS!
HAPPENING
So the government conspired to violate the civil liberties of it's citizens. What exactly is the penalty for failing to uphold the constitution for your elected office? Also what is the penalty for violating someone's civil liberties?
Just checked...how is he "only" worth $8M? Even if that was liquid cash, it's probably not enough to sue their asses.
For a constitutional attorney for torts with slam dunks like this would work on a contingency basis and go massive on a class action suit. It would be a guaranteed monstrous pay day
Sure, IF he wins. We all know how this goes though.
he was a character actor not a giant movie star
This is a good move. Every last citizen that had their twitter account removed should sue the DNC. Bankrupt these criminals.
This is gonna get spicey :)
I hope he is awarded ten times what he earned in his acting career
which DNC pretty much had him blacklisted from
Be careful in which district you file the suit.
that's my only advice
It's impossible to love this guy more.
taking them out behind the Woods shed
Everybody sue the DNC
I think we all could. Our 1st amendment was violated, there was no freedom of the press when the press was getting banned from spreading the information.
How is NY Post not suing the ever loving shit out of everyone involved? Lawsuits should have already been in the works against Google, Twitter, Facebook, basically all MSM etc, even before this confirmation of Twitter malfeasance.
My freedom boner is going to last longer than 4 hours
Thank you.
Do it! Make em pay!
Using the Bergstein to fight the Goldman using law written by a lawbergski will ALWAYS lead to our American people getting enriched.....
Right?
We're all plaintiffs. Class action with 200 million Americans
Good. Fuck ‘em.
James Woods' preferred form of transportation is not suicidal.
The DNC has all that sweet Ukraine money, we should all get some
This
