New York, Jul 7 (EFE/EPA).- (Camera: Justin Lane) Former President Donald Trump announced Wednesday that had filed a class action lawsuit against Facebook, Google and Twitter and their CEOs to force them to rescind their bans on his social accounts with them, something he considers to be censorship and an attack on his "freedom of expression."FOOTAGE OF TRUMP'S PRESS CONFERENCE.
Mike Lindell, aka the MyPillow guy, is an avid follower of soon-to-be Former President Donald J. Trump. And despite Trump's uncertain future, Lindell has not backed down from his baseless claims that somehow the election was stolen. Now, Gizmodo reports Lindell is facing some significant legal trouble from tweeting his conspiracy theories by Dominion Voting Systems. Despite presenting zero verified evidence, Lindell has accused Dominion of switching, stealing, or undercounting votes. You have failed to identify a scintilla of credible evidence that even suggests that Dominion is somehow involved in a global conspiracy to harvest millions of votes in favor of President-elect Biden Lawyers for Dominion Voting Systems Not only that, Lindell said Tuesday that Kohl’s, Wayfair, and HEB plan to stop selling his company’s products.
Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene is a Republican from Georgia known for her promotion of the baseless QAnon conspiracy theory. In a statement, she was suspended by Twitter for 12 hours. Twitter confirmed to Insider that Greene had been temporarily "locked out" from the account. She was cited for violations of its civic integrity policy. On Saturday, Greene tweeted that Trump supporters should "mobilize and make your voices heard in opposition to these attacks on our liberties." Social-media platforms, including Twitter, have cracked down on accounts that spread misinformation and encourage violence. The move comes after pro-Trump rioters stormed the US Capitol on January 6.
The recent storming of the US Capitol seems to be hitting President Donald Trump not only politically, but financially as well. CNN reports a growing number of businesses suddenly want very little to do with Trump after he incited a mob of his supporters to attack the Capitol. Twitter and Facebook banned Trump indefinitely, and Stripe is no longer processing credit card payments for his campaign. Shopify stopped operating online stores for the Trump Organization and the campaign and the PGA is pulling a major golf tournament from a Trump resort. It's also unclear which, if any, banks will want to loan money to the Trump Organization.
On Monday, Twitter's stock price tumbled as much as 12%. The company lost $5 billion from its market capitalization. The fall comes after Twitter permanently suspended President Trump's account. "We have permanently suspended the account due to the risk of further incitement of violence," Twitter said. Trump has generated enormous publicity for the platform with his controversial and incendiary tweets over the past six years. He once boasted around 88 million followers before the ban.
