Twitter, Facebook Censor Factual Post by President Trump

Tech giants Twitter and Facebook both cracked down on President Trump comparing COVID-19 to the seasonal flu on Tuesday, resulting in the president calling for a repeal of Section 230.

“Flu season is coming up! Many people every year, sometimes over 100,000, and despite the Vaccine, die from the Flu,” Trump tweeted. “Are we going to close down our Country? No, we have learned to live with it, just like we are learning to live with Covid, in most populations far less lethal!!!”

Twitter put up a warning that shields the tweet from followers: “This Tweet violated the Twitter Rules about spreading misleading and potentially harmful information related to COVID-19. However, Twitter has determined that it may be in the public’s interest for the Tweet to remain accessible.”

Trump’s followers had to select “view” in order to see the message that was covered by Twitter’s warning. . .

Shortly after Trump was censored by both Facebook and Twitter, Trump tweeted, “REPEAL SECTION 230!!!”

Conspiracy Theories Fly on Left and Right Over Trump Contracting Coronavirus

By Washington Examiner. Conspiracy theories are swirling following President Trump’s announcement that he tested positive for the coronavirus.

Trump could be faking his coronavirus diagnosis in order to avoid participating in another debate against Joe Biden. Or maybe he was deliberately exposed to it by a malicious actor at Tuesday’s debate against the Democratic presidential nominee.

He’s faking it in order to distract from the election — or to garner sympathy for himself. Or maybe, this is part of a grand QAnon plan to save the president from the deep state. . .

With a high-stakes election on the line and Trump being pulled off the campaign trail due to contracting the coronavirus, neither the Left nor the Right had a shortage of suspicion of foul play when it came to Trump announcing a positive test result.

Former Republican congressional candidate-turned- Newsmax commentator DeAnna Lorraine floated the idea that a leftist deliberately infected Trump.

Pence Negative for COVID-19, Vice President’s Office Says

By Yahoo News. Following the announcement that President Trump and first lady Melania Trump tested positive for COVID-19, a spokesman for Vice President Mike Pence announced Friday that Pence and his wife, Karen, had tested negative.

Vice President Pence remains in good health and wishes the Trumps well in their recovery.”

WATCH: Devin Nunes Tears Into Adam Schiff at Intel Committee Hearing

“Welcome to another hearing of the Trump impeachment committee,” Rep. Devin Nunes (R-CA) quipped during his opening statement at a House Intelligence Committee hearing on Friday.

Adam Schiff (D-CA) convened Friday’s meeting to question Joseph B. Maher, the Senior Official Performing the Duties of the Under Secretary for Intelligence and Analysis. According to the chairman, Maher has been “preventing a lawful Intelligence Community whistleblower—the former head of an Intelligence Community element—from providing classified testimony to the Committee by delaying security clearances for his attorneys.” That whistleblower leveled several allegations against the agency, including that they “suppressed intelligence reports about Russia’s election interference and efforts to modify intelligence assessments to match Trump’s rhetoric on white supremacy, Antifa, and terrorism threats at the border.” He alleged that the DHS told him to stop reporting on the Russian threat to the U.S. election because it “made President Trump look bad.” The White House and the DHS denied all allegations.

Nunes noted that the Democrats called the whistleblower in question a liar just a few weeks before he filed this complaint. But now, they take him as their word as their “star witness.”

The ranking member accused his Democratic colleagues of dragging the panel through another investigation hoping that they’ll find the “holy grail of scandals that finally gets rid of Trump without beating him in the election.” They are, Nunes said, “sick fantasies.”

CIA Director Allegedly Banking on Trump Loss to Keep Russiagate Documents Hidden

Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) Director Gina Haspel is personally blocking the declassification and release of key Russiagate documents in the hopes that President Donald Trump will lose his re-election bid, multiple senior U.S. officials told The Federalist. The officials said Haspel, who served under former CIA Director John Brennan as the spy agency’s station chief in London in 2016 and 2017, is concerned that the declassification and release of documents detailing what the CIA was doing during the 2016 election and the 2017 transition could embarrass the CIA and potentially even implicate Haspel herself.

“Haspel and [FBI Director Christopher] Wray both want Trump to lose, because it’s the only chance they have of keeping their jobs,” one senior intelligence official told The Federalist. “They’re banking on Biden winning and keeping them where they are.” . . .

Officials also accused Haspel of repeatedly lying to the White House about the status of documents that are in the pipeline for declassification and release. These officials said that Haspel has consistently provided baseless excuses for her failure to produce certain documents, falsely claiming that she can’t physically locate documents, or that her agency doesn’t technically own them and therefore cannot release them.

“Haspel has repeatedly lied to the president about the status of documents to be declassified,” one intelligence community source said. “She will claim they don’t know where they are, or which agency technically owns them, and then we’ll find out she had them the entire time and just didn’t want them to see the light of day.” (Read more from “CIA Director Allegedly Banking on Trump Loss to Keep Russiagate Documents Hidden” HERE)

VP Pence Steps Onto Center Stage With Trump Hospitalized

Vice President Mike Pence flies to Salt Lake City, Utah, on Monday as he prepares for his biggest role yet — becoming the face of President Trump’s reelection campaign.

With the president laid low by the coronavirus, his deputy is stepping up as campaign officials hastily rejig plans for the final month before Election Day with “Operation MAGA,” deploying Pence and the Trump family in a new front line.

Analysts wonder whether they can replace the charismatic presence of the campaign’s biggest asset and whether the next in line to the presidency should even be out on the road. . .

On Wednesday, Pence steps fully into the spotlight with the vice presidential debate in Salt Lake City, turning what would have been a sideshow into the week’s big political event. . .

It means the man who has frequently been pressed into service in a supporting role — carrying out the sort of retail politics that Trump avoids, or acting as a bridge to some evangelical voters and the traditional conservatives who have never been entirely comfortable with a thrice-married reality TV star as their president — moves to center stage.

Biden Reveals Whether or Not He’s Showing up to the Next Debate

Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden will travel to Florida to participate in the next debate and hopes that President Trump will be able to join him despite the president testing positive for the novel coronavirus late last week.

Symone Sanders, a senior campaign adviser to Biden, said on Sunday that the former vice president is “looking forward” to the Oct. 15 town hall-style debate in Miami and that he is hoping Trump will be well enough to attend.

“We are looking forward to the debate on Oct. 15 in Miami,” Sanders said during an interview on CNN’s “State of the Union.” “It’s a town hall and, as you know, Vice President Biden loves a good town hall.”

Sanders added: “And we are hoping President Trump can participate. We’re hoping that he’s medically able to participate, and that is up to his doctors to clear him. But Joe Biden will be at that debate.”

The future of the next presidential debate was thrown in jeopardy after the president revealed in the early morning hours last Friday that he and First Lady Melania Trump had contracted the coronavirus. Since Trump’s announcement numerous members of his White House inner circle and his reelection campaign have come down with the contagion.
