A federal court ruled President Trump can't block people on Twitter, but the Trump administration isn't giving up that easily
A federal court ruled President Donald Trump can't block people on Twitter, but the Trump administration isn't giving up that easily.
In its Friday court filing requesting a rehearing from all judges of the court, the Justice Department argued that because the @realDonaldTrump account is not owned by the federal government and has been operated by Trump in a personal capacity for years, the president can control who can have access to it.
The Justice Department argued in its Friday filing that that assumption would set a precedent that would mean all "public officials who address matters relating to their public office on personal accounts will run the risk that every action taken on that account will be state action subject to constitutional scrutiny."
