Trump declares law protecting social media national security threat, vows to veto military spending bill if it’s not repealed – By Russia Today Staff (Russia Today) / Dec 2 2020
US President Donald Trump has pledged to veto the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA), which sets out the military budget for 2021, unless a measure shielding social media firms from liability for user content is terminated.
The president took to Twitter on Tuesday night with a series of posts deeming Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act a “serious threat” to US national security and the integrity of its elections.
Our Country can never be safe & secure if we allow it to stand.
“Therefore, if the very dangerous & unfair Section 230 is not completely terminated as part of the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA), I will be forced to unequivocally VETO the Bill when sent to the very beautiful Resolute desk. Take back America NOW,” he wrote.
Section 230, which is a liability shielding gift from the U.S. to “Big Tech” (the only companies in America that have it – corporate welfare!), is a serious threat to our National Security & Election Integrity. Our Country can never be safe & secure if we allow it to stand…..
