Here's what the a$$hole wrote to me on after I wrote his office in support of repealing section 230!
Thank you for your correspondence regarding Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act. As your voice in Washington, I appreciate knowing your views.
The Communications Decency Act, which I supported, was part of the larger Telecommunications Act of 1996 and appropriately regulated obscene and pornographic material on the Internet. This Act has made the Internet a safer place for Americans, while still allowing it to be a free and open forum to share ideas and perspectives. Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act was designed to protect interactive internet platforms from liability for user-created content. It was the intent of Congress to protect the freedom of speech of citizens and allow Internet platforms to thrive.
Since the passage of Section 230 more than twenty years ago, the Internet has changed significantly. Social media companies and platforms like Facebook and Twitter have come to dominate the Internet landscape, as well as change how people communicate on a daily basis. In 2018, Congress enacted the Stop Enabling Sex Traffickers Act, which I cosponsored. This legislation closed a loophole in Section 230 so that online sex traffickers could be held accountable for breaking the law.
Today, under Section 230, social medial platforms have the power to censor who they choose with few, if any, legal ramifications or consequences. The censoring of conservative voices is particularly concerning. I am concerned that the unaccountable actions taken by technology and social media companies is violating the freedom of speech protections guaranteed to Americans in the Constitution.
On May 28, 2020, President Trump issued an executive order calling for the Federal Communications Commission to increase regulations for Internet platforms protected by Section 230. This executive order would hold companies accountable for the content they censor. On October 15, the FCC announced they would clarify the meaning of Section 230 and how its liability shield protects social media companies.
On October 28, the Senate Commerce Committee held a hearing with the CEOs of Google, Twitter and Facebook to testify on Section 230. On November 17, the CEOs of Twitter and Facebook testified before the Senate Judiciary Committee after Twitter and Facebook limited the spread of a New York Post story about Hunter Biden.
I strongly support President Trump’s effort to fully repeal Section 230, and its “Good Samaritan” provision. The “Good Samaritan” provision allows for “good faith” efforts to restrict objectionable content. However, instead of focusing on removing unquestionably harmful content, like ISIS propaganda videos, Twitter and other liberal social media companies are actively deciding and censoring content posted by users. Censorship is already happening for Americans due to their political beliefs without transparency or recourse. President Trump is right – we need to fully repeal Section 230.
The president knows that I agree with him 100 percent on the need for a full repeal of Section 230. I have made that clear publicly as well. It is unfortunate that Members of Congress on both sides of the aisle disagree with the need for a full repeal – but, because of that, it was impossible to add a repeal of Section 230 to the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) due to objections from members integral to finalizing the NDAA conference report who do not agree with full repeal. If we included Section 230, we would have no NDAA. Without an NDAA, our troops would not get paid, their families would suffer and our national security would be compromised. This is why we have passed an NDAA the last 59 years – and I don’t intend to break that streak.
For the past four years, I have worked hand in hand with President Trump to rebuild our military, support our troops and defend American families. Under his leadership, we have made gains in our national security that would not have been possible under any other president and this year’s NDAA continues that work.
I will continue to support efforts that protect Americans’ freedom of speech and from those who intend to harm us. Again, thank you for sharing your views on Section 230.

This is brilliant!! Going to love to read it. Thanks for finding this and sharing!
Hi Ovitz. I did not have much luck blocking the adds on YouTube. Sometimes it would freeze like it’s waiting to load from an url but couldn’t find it.
Worked great for most of the websites though.
Just maybe God is on our side!
That was funny!!! Needed that today. Thanks
Don't know yet. I have had YT Premium also until today. I'll check it out this weekend and get back to you. From the forums it doesn't look likes it gets 100% of the ads on there, but anything helps.
Only one left is Amazon and that’s because of prime shipping.
Here’s a good solution: https://www.raspberrypi.org/blog/pi-hole-raspberry-pi/
The MSM is such a detriment to our republic. They never report on the initial lawsuit showing fraud or any victory for side of truth, but I'll be damned if they don't have an article 2 minutes later when a setback for freedom occurs. It's sickening!
Oh Yeah! Had to burn all the incriminating evidence. If we had a FBI with a backbone we would have confiscated all of that evidence. I am reading The Naked Communist (if you haven't highly recommend), and the Chinese are doing the same $hit that the Russians did: Buying our politicians for power and control.
It was a message to Kemp. Kemp visits the Chinese consulate in Houston around July and later that month he forces the dominion system down GA throat. Not one democrat voted for it. Fast forward to recent events, he finally says they need a signature verification and then boom. Next day changes tune.
We must consider that the survival of the CCP is at stake. Trump is devastating their economy and the only thing that keeps the people in China from overthrowing the CCP is their quality of life is improving. Take that away and we have a uprising in Beijing. Beijing will lose maybe trillions if Trump wins. They will do ANYTHING to prevent Trump. It’s their survival and trust me, they are backed in a corner.
I don’t understand where you are getting 0.26%. If they ran 100 ballots for Biden and he had a 26% lead as the tweet indicates, then he would have 126 votes. The tweet does mention whether or not trump then had a deficit of votes to make up for Biden’s magic ballots. So it would be 26% or a multiplier of 0.26 added to Biden’s totals.
Look at the time. This is coming from the UK probably
The only thing that concerns me is that he said towards the end of the video that it will not change the results. Wtf!!!
I’m a programmer and I cannot think of any reason to use a float to tabulate values that should always be integers. I could see you having to convert the integer to a float to divide by to total to get your total percentage, but you would always leave the original value as an integer to maintain value integrity.
Shows that they can set a candidate to Rx 14.10% of all votes cast while the real vote got 85.90%
Did I just witness a stroke on live TV?
For these personalities on faux it’s all about their egos. I assure you that they are obsessed about ratings and probably check them constantly. This will be extremely demoralizing to them and hopefully an opportunity for them to re-align with the truth.
In 2019, an estimated 38,800 people lost their lives to car crashes – Must ban all cars until they are 100% safe. Lock-down the roads!!! JK
Great find @prunch88! Thanks for sharing. General seems very credible. I think the house of cards are starting to fall.
[email protected] covert operation probably.
Just in...the bank robber wants to avoid an investigation in the robbery that occurred and calls for unity between criminals and police. Fellow pedes, this is insanity. Down is up and up is down. Expose these clowns.
Well said!!! We know their playbook, we must use it against them.
The far left democrats are Marxist. Marxists are atheists and thus amoral. The end always justify the means to them!
They know that we never put up a fight! Most on the right have jobs and families and responsibilities so it’s difficult for us to stop everything and riot in the streets. But you can only push us so far. To be a conservative means to conserve the constitution. When they start tearing that apart, then they will see the wrath of the conservative and it’s not breaking windows or setting cars on fire!
