Twitter Permits Blatantly False Smear about Kelly Loeffler Campaigning with the KKK on Their Platform
Talk about a double standard.
Sen. Kelly Loeffler (R-GA) is fighting for her political life with a hotly contested run-off election less than a week away, and Twitter is allowing fake news on their platform designed to hurt her chances.
Her weaselly Democrat opponent, Jon Ossoff, has claimed publicly that Loeffler “campaigned with a Klansman.” This is a blatant falsehood, but Twitter is doing nothing to stop the fake news from spreading.
Jon Ossoff falsely claimed in a viral tweet that Kelly Loeffler "campaigned with a klansman." Twitter tells me that this tweet doesn't fit under its categories for misleading info — and that Twitter is not going to be “the arbiter of truth."https://t.co/GmliXiD7A1

Twitter spokesman Trenton Kennedy said to the Daily Caller that this smear is not against their terms of service. She says that the lie does not fall into their focus of “synthetic and manipulated media, COVID-19, and Civic Integrity.” She says that “making a claim about someone happens in political speech all the time.”
“Making a claim about someone and their character wouldn’t fall under any of those policies,” Kennedy said.
Ossoff has used a picture of Loeffler with a former Klan leader to exaggerate their ties and spread falsehoods with the election around the corner. Twitter has actively become a political actor, helping Ossoff launder the fake news, in what could be seen as a form of electoral interference.
Twitter is claiming that they do not want to be the “arbiter of truth.”
This does not make us an “arbiter of truth.” Our intention is to connect the dots of conflicting statements and show the information in dispute so people can judge for themselves. More transparency from us is critical so folks can clearly see the why behind our actions.

However, when it comes to President Trump and his supporters, Twitter has no qualms about serving as the “arbiter of truth,” particularly when it comes to electoral fraud.
Twitter has censored President Trump often for trying to expose the vote steal and the ongoing coup against the Bill of Rights and Constitution, as Big League Politics has reported:
Twitter nuked a tweet from President Donald Trump on Tuesday night, in which the President assailed what he called a Democrat election steal. Results of the 2020 presidential election are still unclear as of Tuesday night, with the elections of critical swing states Arizona, Michigan, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, Georgia and Nevada still undetermined.
A tweet from the President accusing Democrats of stealing the election through wide-ranging and questionable post-election ballot returns was placed under a censorship button, although it’s visible with a disclaimer.
President Trump also said that he was up in the election, promising to make a statement to the American people.
It’s incredibly dangerous for the Silicon Valley tech company to censor a statement from the President of the United States on the night of an election. The results of the election are unclear.
Twitter declined to do anything about tweets from Joe Biden that occurred at the same time, leaving a tweet in which Biden claimed he was on the way to winning the election in place.
Twitter must be nationalized, or forcibly shuttered, before it can do more damage to politics and society as a whole.

PATHETIC: National Guard Booted to Parking Lot After Democrat Congressman Complained They Weren’t Wearing Masks
The Democrat complained about masks.
New reports suggest that a detachment of National Guard personnel present in Washington, DC for Inauguration duties were kicked out of their spartan lodging in the Capitol to a parking lot after a Democrat Congressman complained that one of the guardsmen wasn’t wearing a mask at a Dunkin’ Donuts inside the Capitol.
Breitbart News has learned that Massachusetts Democrat Will Keating reported that he encountered a soldier at the Capitol without a mask. When Keating told the guardsman to wear a mask, the service member told Keating, “I appreciate my freedom.”
This event reportedly led to the entire National Guard detachment being kicked out of their lodging inside a Capitol lobby to an outdoor parking lot, where they were exposed to freezing temperatures.
Keating has declined to comment on the exchange, with reports suggesting he reported the incident to Capitol Police. This led to the Guard being booted outside as a punishment.
“Yesterday dozens of senators and congressmen walked down our lines taking photos, shaking our hands and thanking us for our service. Within 24 hours, they had no further use for us and banished us to the corner of a parking garage. We feel incredibly betrayed,” one Guard member told Politico about being kicked to the curb.
Establishment Democrats had been eager to use the military service members as political props, even after a fiasco in which they were caught trying to purge conservative-leaning Guard personnel for insufficiently loyalty to the Biden government. Governor Ron DeSantis of Florida and Greg Abbott of Texas recalled the detachments of their state National Guards from DC following the second incident of disrespect to the troops, with the former rejecting the idea of FL Guard members being utilized as Nancy Pelosi’s personal servants.
