Plus the US airs its dirty laundry in ways Russia, China, or the Middle East could never allow. Their power structures are too weak for actual freedom.

You need to think of Twitter as MSNBC or Fox News. Bias in editorial decisions is perfectly legal.

Now political campaigns are the government? Would be curious on your take of what DeSantis was trying to do to Disney in FL? 30 years in prison for threatening Disney about its speech?

That would never fly with a real audit. You’d perform a triple tie out and the incoming cash transaction would have to be recorded. And you never do a single day.

China wants internal conflict that weakens the country or destroys democracy. Social media can be weaponized to do this. Foreign media ownership limits are not novel.

Absolutely. The FBI head must be appointed by the President and approved by the Senate. Oversight is performed by Congress. He can be fired.

It’s not random chance to be hacked then have your emails woven into malicious conspiracies. It’s a crime. The DNC favored the Democrat over the independent. That’s to be expected. The voters picked Hillary. The conspiracy that it was stole

The hacked and leaked DNC and Podesta emails and corresponding fever dreams of cheese pizza meaning child porn and all the other nonsense definitely affected some people. The DNC emails and conspiracies pushed on the left made a lot of Bern
