Lol! Just as you failed to debate statutes, you are also grossly uniformed about the Constitution as well.You'll have nothing more than crickets with this one.Trump can't block users from his Twitter feed, federal judge rules
free speech..it's a thing:
"President Donald Trump cannot block Twitter users for the political views they have expressed, a federal judge in Manhattan ruled on Wednesday.
Blocking users from viewing his Twitter account — a feature offered by the social media platform — is unconstitutional and a violation of the First Amendment, Judge Naomi Reice Buchwald wrote in her ruling.
"While we must recognize, and are sensitive to, the President’s personal First Amendment rights, he cannot exercise those rights in a way that infringes the corresponding First Amendment rights of those who have criticized him," Buchwald wrote.
The government had argued that blocked individuals could still access the president’s tweets. The judge agreed but said that even considering the president's First Amendment rights, preventing users from interacting directly with him on Twitter represented a violation of a "real, albeit narrow, slice of speech.""
So does that mean Twitter now has to allow everyone onto their platform regardless of their political views or posting content?
By who? Total ignoramuses to the Constitution?If Trump can't block people no one can (did you hear that Jake?)...but do not fear this will be challenged and over ruled....
And so, as the First Amendment is written, where exactly is the "axe"? ; Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.This is a far more clear topic, not your "trump brokes the lawszes!" screed.
The judge is a Clinton appointee with an axe to grind.
But Trump is using the services of a private organization that isn't necessarily governed by the Constitution. How can Trump be violating anyone's first amendment rights when Twitter gave him the ability to block people following his account in the first place?
This ruling is flawed.
Exactly, so now nobody can block anyone or ignore someone like they can do here.

The ruling was about the nature of Trump’s tweets, not about twitter. The White House and the DOJ say that Trump’s tweets are Official Statements from the White House

great so you were ok with conservstives speaking at berkley?Nice to see a judge that cares about our first amendment rights!
Trump wants to destroy them and all his so called base can do is jump off that cliff!
No, I am not okay with it. Conservatives should have had their say. It was wrong to not let them speak.great so you were ok with conservstives speaking at berkley?Nice to see a judge that cares about our first amendment rights!

you were against the violence to them when they tried to speak out?
Same thing. Liberal activist judge using his position for political purposes.
Bullshit. The president has NO OBLIGATION TO LISTEN TO THE HECKLERS.You have a right to "speak." Nobody is obligated to listen.He can mute them..in fact, the judge recommended just that..but he cannot block them..because he is the President..our leader...and we have the right to access his official record. He has claimed that it is..and now he's stuck with the consequences.Trump can't block users from his Twitter feed, federal judge rules

Hmmmm...twitter can censor...and everybody else can block whomever they please for any reason..
But the President of the US must be prevented from blocking the trolls and stalkers that insult and attack him on twitter.
But Trump is using the services of a private organization that isn't necessarily governed by the Constitution. Private organizations are corporate entities upon themselves, essentially defined by law as people.

That is exactly correct.
Which is why Trump can mute people on Twitter - which will prevent him from seeing those tweets - but can't block people, because that prevents them from "speaking" at all.
Same thing. Liberal activist judge using his position for political purposes.
When the government uses private person companies the same constitutional obligations still apply
No government official who uses a twitter account to conduct government business can shut down free speech by blocking other tweeters.Exactly, so now nobody can block anyone or ignore someone like they can do here.
