In the last day, three more major lawsuits trying to hold social media accountable for censorship have failed to survive motions to dismiss.
The fallen suits now include the biggest of all: Trump v Twitter, thrown out this afternoon by Judge James Donato of the Northern District of California - my new favorite district!
How are we ever going to find out if the companies are working hand-in-glove the federal government if none of these cases survive to discovery?
If only a suit could get past the motion to dismiss stage… but they never do. I mean, I haven’t seen the New York Times or Washington Post or even Fox report on any, so it must not have happened.
Oh well.
If you’ll excuse me, I’ve got some light Friday night reading about protective orders ahead.
Same thing that happened with any and all of Trump’s election suits and allegations. The real Big Lie is that they were all rejected in their merits by the courts. The truth is they were all tossed out on technicalities and never saw the light of day.
“ But San Francisco federal district court Judge James Donato left the door open for Trump and other plaintiffs to file an amended complaint against Twitter that is consistent with his written decision Friday to toss the lawsuit in its entirety.”
The Framers understood all too well the Exec. Legislative & Judicial branch WILL COLLUDE; that to avoid Armed Rebellion a Safety Valve must be built in: It's called Amendment V which provides for secret grand jury to convene, examine the culprit without benefit of counsel, and in effect Order the County Judge to convene criminal trial - That is called: G.J. Bill of Indictment. If / When Layers grow some balls, and realize 3007 counties have Equal Right to do that, and further, Only 1 County need find Pfizer guilty, GAME OVER. But instead, they go to FBI, DOJ, State AGs, all part of the Exec. Branch, All answering to Biden. A. Einstein, "Doing the same thing over and over again" is the definition of Insanity. It's like asking the guy who loaded his gun and shot you, to put himself on trial for the crime of attempted murder. How stupid is that? I bring up Pfizer because we have knowledge of harm and death by way of their trials, then we have harm and death with the global rollout by Pfizer. If Pfizer is too big, start with Fauci - he is ripe. Alex, If you want to end fed. govt. collusion, start by empowering County level grand juries for Indictment for homicide of Pfizer execs; or not. The executive branch has no say whatsoever, of what can be tried at the County level, no matter what poison they have built into CFRs. There's no money in it for you, granted. And it take guts, granted. So, who are you, Alex?
More than half the country now sees what’s really going on here and it’s that court of public opinion that will shine this November, in the mid-terms. It’s already started in Ohio. Thanks #45 for showing me the BS of the left and turning this Latino “red”.
You will be a hero of this time when history is written - assuming we aren't annihilated by nuclear war, and that the US reverts to democracy and adherence to constitutional protections. I saw the film 2000 Mules in NYC several nights ago and yet again am shocked, this time that there has not been investigation by the FBI, that there has been no interest by the Justice Department. After all the lies I still expect honor somehow. Yet that film offering objective verifiable evidence of widespread calculated voter fraud received no press that I could find. And it should be front page news and people must be held accountable so it is not repeated by either party. Ever. Your action with Twitter is a big deal. As is Elon Musk's purchase. He too will be seen as a hero.
Please reach out to Dr Shiva, he has a court case which exposed during discovery that the Federal Government and Big Tech are working together. It’s proven in his court case which he could give you the information.
Reminds me of Sharyl Attkisson's lawsuit against the dept of justice regarding their surveillance of her computers. Was thrown out because she failed to name specific agents being accused of surveillance. But despite evidence of her computer being hacked with keystroke logging spyware she wasn't allowed any discovery inside the FBI to name such agents.
What else do you expect from a Federal judge in the upside down state of California? BTW. My doc in Oklahoma says he is getting a lot of new clients. Most are citizens migrating from California. They are massively Red in their political orientation. Okies use to migrate to California because of dirt....in the air called the Dust Bowl. I think the reverse migration of Californians to Oklahoma is also caused by dirt. Dirt in Capital in Sacramento!
It's becoming more evident that our government is/was at the root of the censorship of multiple user accounts. If social media companies weren't run by left-leaning liberals, couldn't the executives push back and use their own free speech rights for the benefit of their users? I hope Musk will take this stand. The governmental censorship trend is affecting users all across the globe. Why now? The Internet's been around for more than a generation so it seems the Pandemic makes a perfect example for their justification.
Big tech can ban anyone due to 230 but also here's what you haven't heard yet, anyone can sue based on antitrust, see ... "A Q&A guide to private antitrust litigation in the United States."
Their day is coming, mark my words. When the good half of America snaps, nothing and I mean nothing will save them. I don't like saying it, but I just can't figure out how America is rejuvenated without the total elimination of many. It's simply not possible.
Why is the Northern District of CA your new fav? Please don’t say because it dismissed President Trump’s suit but not yours. That’d be petty and frankly shortsighted because if a Democrat journalist is reinstated on Twitter, but not the rest of the folks who were banned, what do we have? NOTHING.
Can a dismissal be appealed? Does anyone know the Judge's home address so we can "Protest"?
Just joking, protesting in front of a Federal judges home is a crime which carries fines and incarceration. If anyone but a Lefty tried it they will be the Jan 6 crew cell mates.
It's important to remember how long the tobacco company litigations took. It is going to be an issue of death by a thousand cuts ie suits coming from numerous angles and the few lucky ones breaking in so to eventually expose via discovery that eventually enables the necessary class actions etc.
Beyond states pushing forward on cases (https://cdn.locals.com/documents/47656/47656_ola9ujluwxfwqux.pdf) other angles are ripe for exploration outside of state action. Consider Hush-A-Phone Corp. v. United States (https://www.courtlistener.com/opinion/240655/hush-a-phone-corporation-and-harry-c-tuttle-v-united-states-of-america/) where it was held "Tariffs on Hush-A-Phone device were unwarranted interference with telephone subscriber's right reasonably to use his telephone in ways which are privately beneficial without being publicly detrimental." - this bring into question usage of technical devices or that of technical instruments ie twitter and the subscriber (user) right to reasonably use instrument in ways that are privately beneficial. The test will be public detriment however a good attorney could then highlight J&J recent news et al to question what shall be considered publicly detrimental and if intent was ill devised by poster or not etc.
Nonetheless, this is a two decade long fight if not longer.
Why does anyone think they have a right to force another person or company to do what they want? The problem isn't twit, it's the twits who continue to use it
I was outraged to hear that Tucker Carlson had instructed his guest from True the Vote not to mention the movie, 2000 Mules or Dinesh d’Sousa. I had figured that was the case, but it was just confirmed by Dinesh D.
I am still stunned that our country is apparently OK with liberal activists censoring a sitting President. These social media platforms are really public utilities and should be treated as such.
John Paul Mac Issak might be a good start? He’s the laptop guy. He’s suing CNN & many government agencies presumably over the handling of mishandling of laptop information. He literally left his business, home & everything because of the corruption and fear he had/has. You know more about this guy than me but seems like a legit dude. Hunter Biden might be your answer to media & government corruption. ? Also, how about the J & J starting to limit vaccine use? After all this time it’s determined harmful! It only took 9 deaths and probably thousands of blood clots! Daily Mail had articles on both.
I just heard on radio yesterday an advertisement for Pfizer pills to combat Covid. Isn’t that remarkable? I bet they tweaked the already existing anti-virals FDA approved for.. say.. Lyme disease?! It’s important you receive medical care early, within 5 days if diagnosis. Well, then is the “emergency use” of the Covid Vaccine ending? I thought emergency use stipulates it’s approved only when there isn’t an equally successful treatment? ( isn’t THAT the real reason HCQ & Ivermectin are not used or available in U.S.? ). Thanks Pfizer for always looking out for us! Alex, there’s a way to pry this evil can of corruption wide open. It’s through the back door. Not sure how yet but maybe a disgruntled media guru will search their soul for redemption. It could happen! ( a new Snowden). And remember Capote was arrested for tax evasion. Not ordering all the murders and corruption. Don’t give up! Don’t give up! Don’t give up! You’re closer than you think. It’s like Musk says, “ light is a great disinfectant”. Shine a light! 🔦
I watch the news every day so I am super well informed. Biden is doing a great job and Twitter doesn't have a censorship problem. I just hope that Twitters employees can stop that bad man Musk from wrecking the free speech that so many people enjoy since they got rid of that bad orange man and the rest of those troublemakers like the Babylon Bee.
Have you thought about reporting on the zero Covid policy and lockdowns in China? If virus gonna virus and if lockdowns are death, then China is self destructing. How stupid! Do they actually believe they can eliminate the virus? I find this story to be fascinating but not seeing good reporting on it.
It appears these individual cases are like trying to hold back a tsunami. Maybe a class action suit would be better. But at least the judiciary hasn't become political ....
Frustrating though; just as with the conundrum of Trump Election Fraud trials not being able to demonstrate status because there was no legal remedy available (Judges could not undue the election)...such that you had the ridiculous notion that you had to sue for fraud before the fraud was committed...the evidence is there but how to get it into court?...Twitter is a public company but can't be protected against violations of its own Rules? ...
Folks, as someone in the litigation field, I want to remind you that ALL judges are appointed by their party members in govt ( Pres, Gov etc) or elected by running under their party banner. Blue regions and states elect blue judges and vise versa. Bar Associations mostly all lien left or far left. Attorneys who want Judgeships or AG or DA sometimes Sect. of State, are all political appointees or elected by running on party banner. Judges just aren’t promoted like regular jobs. They’re attorneys who made sure they were noticed and heavily affiliated with party folks and ranking officials to get that appointment or place on party ballot. I keep emphasizing “party”. Lady Justice may be blind, but no one else is.
Trump v Twitter is dismissed
Alex, as I read the comments, you may have been a little too subtle this time.
Our judiciary is corrupt, like everything else. The End.
Same thing that happened with any and all of Trump’s election suits and allegations. The real Big Lie is that they were all rejected in their merits by the courts. The truth is they were all tossed out on technicalities and never saw the light of day.
This is why I'm thankful to/for Substack. At least some people can access the truth.

It's such an abortion of justice, Alex.
Is this true then?
“ But San Francisco federal district court Judge James Donato left the door open for Trump and other plaintiffs to file an amended complaint against Twitter that is consistent with his written decision Friday to toss the lawsuit in its entirety.”
Trying to fight LIBTARDS in California is not the smartest move ... judges there are elected because they themselves are libtards

FJB & Twitter
why is the N. California district your favorite now? I don’t understand your comment
I am 8th generation, Californian.
Northern California has been bastardized more then other areas of California ~ the true intention of California, free spirit of the American West!
SF has been taken, LA is the next takedown- good luck to you, truly! God speed
Trump needs to appeal the motion

is there any doubt the media & govt. are "working hand in glove"?
All this lawyer talk, translate to plan English. Is this ruling good for free speech or bad?

We the people must lean the art of removing judges from the bench.

Not one 2020 argument was heard...why would this be?
WHEW!!!
I looked quickly at the headline, and for a fleeting second thought it was YOUR lawsuit, Alex.
Sheesh!
I'm refilling my glass of wine now.

Good thing the judge in your case feels differently.

Another Barack Obama appointed communist criminal.
I understand your pride, but it would be helpful if you explained why those suits did not survive MTD and yours did.
At least Politico reported on your lawsuit surviving motion to dismiss, right?
Can a dismissal be appealed? Does anyone know the Judge's home address so we can "Protest"?
Just joking, protesting in front of a Federal judges home is a crime which carries fines and incarceration. If anyone but a Lefty tried it they will be the Jan 6 crew cell mates.

You don't have many friends do you, Alex? I'm praying for a fun and lively case in Berenson V. Twitter for us all to follow!

Exciting stuff
I guess I don’t understand. If 230 says they can’t be held responsible for what’s said, why do they get to determine what gets to be said?
We can't handle the truth, or can we? See if you can make it past the first ten minutes of this video: https://live.childrenshealthdefense.org/shows/the-jerusalem-report

Are we talking the kind of protective orders that keep "proprietary information" secret?
Now, who would want to do that?
