President Donald Trump took to Twitter on Saturday to blast social media platforms for unfairly marginalizing conservative voices, days after Facebook banned several so-called extremist users from its platform.
Trump tweeted on Friday afternoon that he was monitoring “censorship” by social media platforms, adding: “This is the United States of America -– and we have what’s known as freedom of speech! We are monitoring and watching, closely!!” The president also tweeted about James Woods, a Hollywood actor whose Twitter account was suspended for tweeting “If you try to kill the King, you better not miss. #HangThemAll” in response to the Mueller report.
The president's son Donald Trump Jr. also chimed in, and tweeted:"the media won't be happy until anyone to the right of @CNN is banned from having a voice. And let’s not pretend this is just about social media either, leftists are already pressuring web-hosting sites, banks & credit card companies to ban people they disagree with politically."
