It was 8pm. If you were doing it at 8am that probably explains why you aren’t one of those brave “fancy” NHS nurses, (or doctors, hospital cleaners, teachers and more types).
Anyway, back to the story here. I would have thought any judge would put the brakes on this until after the transition.
Elections have consequences. You lost. Move on.
Because he's headed to jail.
The best solution is to remove protections for social media so they can be held accountable for what they publish. All of this ends with that simple change.
You are right, just a typo. I meant 8PM.
And back to the story too, I just find it funny that a US administration waste time with social network apps. If there is any app that I wouldn’t mind going is Facebook.
Biden's biggest rally drew less than three dozen.
I know who won.
You know who won.
Trump knows he won.
He's not going anywhere.

What reason is there to ban Instagram though? Is it simply because you don't like the platform?
The Mad “Red” Hatter... Maybe if he would have learned to fight the real/bigger battles instead of getting triggered over the small things. 22 days... I bet he would veto a defense bill over personal social media grievance. Oh wait!
Steve Bannon had the right idea: Nationalize Facebook and Twitter.
Once it's run by the government then the 1st Amendment applies. It's very difficult to ban or remove anything. The banned "N-word" would be fully legal. Only child porn would be banned.
Freedom of speech and democratic elections are apparently a low priority Comrade ZipZap
You realize that if that was the case, your orange-faced clown of a leader wouldn't be allowed to post lies, fraudulent claims, and incite violence on Twitter and FaceBook right?
That's what we have now, communist speech enforcement. It comes from the "private sector" so the solution is nationalization since the 1st Amendment does not apply to private business.
Sure there could be other solutions but the political system is so putridly corrupt by criminal bloodsuckers that those solutions are only theoretical.
That's if election fraud actually becomes President.

Also this is a shame, President Trump has done so much to help improve the country and people still want to put a stop to this. It's really disappointing that that the obvious (to some) good that you do had to be fought every step of the way to be put into action.

It's ok because Dopey Trump will soon be gone. He started a trade war with China that failed.

Trump supporters will reject every legitimate poll out there, but try and use rally attendance during a pandemic to proclaim the "true" outcome of the election. He'll hang around on Twitter for sure. But at least he'll no longer have the presidential powers he was never qualified to yield in the first place.
Why is Russia our adversary? The cold war ended decades ago. Russia's GDP is 1/60th of USA's, and they are now the 11th ranked country by GDP, they simply aren't even in the game anymore.
If China isn't the USA's greatest adversary, then the USA doesn't even have one at the moment. I think the game is to work with China, not against them so bluntly. But to not be naive, as of course they'd love to topple the USA and become the dominant power in the world. And also don't be so naive to think that that will not have a lot of negative and unpleasant consequences.

The reason companies let you post whatever you want online is precisely because they are not legally responsible for what you say, but you are. If you change the law to allow suing the medium, then expect anything resembling free speech online to evaporate overnight as companies move to censor anything even vaguely controversial you might want to post on their services, to preemptively protect themselves from lawsuits. We’d look like the Chinese internet, with laundry lists of banned topics and ever-changing euphemisms to try to route around censorship, but corporate-enforced instead of government-enforced, all totally 1st-Amendment-compliant.
If you still don't understand why in the middle of a pandemic, big rallies are a bad idea and not supported or wanted by responsible people, then of course, you will believe anything - especially if you want to believe it so badly. Evidence is no needed. Talking about evidence... Where is it? Let me guess: the deep state monster, a mutation from Venezuela and Germany, shredded all the papers, swallowed it and dumped it all on a golf course. No wonder The Donald is spending every single minute for the last 2 months there (while thousands of people die every day of Covid-19).
In school we often debated if societies could ever be manipulated again via propaganda on a large scale by the ones like Goebbels. Repeating lies after lies until eventually people will start to feel uneasy and finally give in and being supportive.
It's a shame what happened to the USA.
But oh, yes, go after Tik Tok. But leave Facebook untouched and follow your master on Twitter whose only goal seems to be to split your society.
And please take it easy on Putin's Cozy Bear riding the solar winds.
