Trump wrote that “the Democratic Party and the Democratic National Committee” relied on big tech platforms to carry out “massive fraud” in the election that brought Biden victory.
“Do you throw out the results of the 2020 presidential election and declare the RIGHT WINNER or have a NEW ELECTION? A Massive Fraud of this type and magnitude allows the termination of all rules, regulations and articles, even those found in the Constitution,” the Republican wrote in his Truth account, quoted by CNN.
The White House condemned such statements. “You can’t love America only when you win. The US Constitution is a sacrosanct document that for more than 200 years has guaranteed that freedom and the rule of law are maintained in our great country,” said Andrew Bates, White House spokesman, according to US media reports. .
Meanwhile, billionaire Elon Musk wrote on his Twitter account that he will soon publish a second series of information on the subject, which he has dubbed “The Twitter archives.”
The agency efe refers that on Friday night Musk shared a thread of messages from journalist Matt Taibi in which he detailed, citing internal documents from Twitter workers, the management of the social network of a story published by the New York Post about business of Hunter Biden when his father was a presidential candidate in 2020.
Taibbi, with access to those documents presumably granted by the new owner of Twitter, revealed how workers at the social network, which received large donations from the Democratic Party, reduced the distribution of the Post story and removed links that led to it both in tweets as direct messages.
The employees allegedly relied on the company’s policy on pirated materials due to the origin of the Post’s information, a measure that its own founder, Jack Dorsey, already considered “wrong” in 2020 and that has generated debate about the power of the technology to censor information and on the right to freedom of the press.
Trump announced his intention to run for president again last month and remains widely considered the leader of the Republican Party. Party officials hoped he would drop his election denial rhetoric after lackluster results in legislative elections, he says. CNN.
