Lauren Boebert Threatens Twitter After Marjorie Taylor Greene Gets Banned

Lauren Boebert is not happy that her friend Marjorie Taylor Greene was booted off of Twitter, and she used her voice on the platform to let them know that their day of reckoning is coming. Boebert claimed that when Republicans take back over, she and her colleagues will be holding the platform accountable, although that statement really doesn't mean anything since there's nothing they can do about it. Farron Cousins discusses this.

Shortly after Marjorie Taylor green was officially banned forever from Twitter. This past weekend, Lauren Bobert came to her defense and swore vengeance upon the social media giant Lauren BT of course, took to Twitter to issue her threat against Twitter, which was Twitter permanently suspended, a sitting us president they've now permanently suspended, a sitting member of us. Congress, of course, both from the same party. They forget that in 2022, we are taking back the house and we will be holding them accountable. What does that mean? See the problem with all of these empty threats from these Republicans is that they never, never explained what these things mean. Like you gonna hold them accountable. You're gonna force a private company to give a platform, to provide their service to people who have already violated their terms of service. They agreed to these terms when they signed up to the platform, whether they decided to read the fine print or not is irrelevant.

You know, that's their fault. That's all of our faults, really when we sign up for these social media companies, but they agreed to it. They violated it. There's nothing you can do. And Lauren, do you know why there's really nothing you can do about this? Even if Twitter came out by the way and said, yes, we banned them because they are Republicans, which isn't why they were banned. But if they did say we banned them because we don't want Republicans on our site, do you know what would be able to be done about that? Nothing. Nothing because Republicans let's not forget, uh, several years ago helped push a case to the United States Supreme court that allowed a private business to withhold their services from certain individuals. If the beliefs of those individuals went against the beliefs of the business owners. Yeah. So Twitter would actually probably be more legally protected.

Not that they need more legal protection. If they did say yes, we banned them because they're conservatives. This is an absolutely idiotic comment from Lauren BT. And she knows that as, as, as dumb as I truly believe she is, she does know that there's nothing she can do of out this, but she's banking on her base being dumber than she is. Cuz conservatives eat this crap up all day long, like, oh, we're gonna hold 'em accountable finally. And do what do what exactly. And of course, if these idiots continue to say that all these tech companies are so evil, it's big tech oligarchy as Glen green wall pointed out, then why are you using their platform? Why are you contributing to it? Huh? If you think it's so bad and so evil and so corrupt, get the hell off of it. Nobody's entitled to Twitter politics in the United States was able to function.

Believe it or not before Twitter existed. Sure. It's a powerful tool to get your message out to millions of people in an instant, but oh, well like other tools, if you can't 'em properly, you don't get to use 'em. So deal with the consequences. You don't wanna get banned. Don't push dangerous lies that could get people killed. Like the COVID misinformation that Marjorie Taylor green was spreading, but Lauren Bobert has to pander to the base. She is facing a tough reelection. I know she's confident Republicans will take the house back in 2022 and they likely will. Let's be honest about that. They likely will, but bet's district was redrawn. It's no longer as friendly to her as it was in 2020. So her chances of being reelected have dropped significant, especially of course she's still under investigation for all those weird campaign, uh, expenditures. So, you know, I would imagine any opponent of hers would love to use that as fodder against her.

So by all means, please do so. But if you're expecting re Republicans to take back the house and actually be able to do something about big tech, something meaningful that actually needs to be done, like breaking up the monopolies that needs to happen. No, no, no. They're not gonna touch any of that, but they will make a big stink about conservatives, allegedly being targeted by these outlets.
