US President Donald Trump has threatened to 'close down' or regulate social media platforms after claiming they silence conservative voices. It's after Twitter decided to label one of the president's tweets as 'misleading' for the first time. | Read more:

Twitter has labelled two of Donald Trump's tweets "unsubstantiated" and accused him of making false claims, a first for the social network which has long resisted calls to censure the US president over some of his questionable posts.

Under the tweets, Twitter posted a link which read "Get the facts about mail-in ballots" and which took users to a notice calling the claims "unsubstantiated", citing reporting by CNN, the Washington Post and other media. "However, fact-checkers say there is no evidence that mail-in ballots are linked to voter fraud."

There is NO WAY that Mail-In Ballots will be anything less than substantially fraudulent. Mail boxes will be robbed, ballots will be forged & even illegally printed out & fraudulently signed. The Governor of California is sending Ballots to millions of people, anyone..... And yesterday he ignited a storm with an attempted character assassination of MSNBC host Joe Scarborough by spreading the baseless rumour he murdered an aide.

The tweets in question violated a recently expanded Twitter policy, according to the San Francisco-based company. Mr Trump pushed the story over the weekend. Yesterday he tweeted: "The opening of a Cold Case against Psycho Joe Scarborough".

Well known fact that the tech giants silence the conservative voice. It’s anti democratic and needs regulating.

He would be the first to be regulated

When a liar like Trump is challenged his reaction is to hit back at the truth.

About time too. Donald Trump has nuclear missiles and Twitter does not. Champion of the people!

look's like president Trump was right again

Trump is spot on . It’s fair for all or shut it down

For the first time as if they should be doing it on the regular!🤔😂 They've been blatantly silencing conservatives voices for a long time! It's about time Trump done something about it! Rte towing the line like good puppets!

About time. Sick of these tax-avoiding, far-right economically but far-left socially corporations being allowed absolute power in influencing our societies.

Man Baby

A couple of years ago Google, Twitter, and Facebook were before congress 'explaining' their deliberate censorship of conservative sources and material. But RTE never showed this, they and the rest of the Irish MSM love their censorship - another weapon their left wing ideology.

Oh so he’s upset that someone has the balls to pull him up on his bull and he’s upset ?

Dopey Donald strikes again!!!

For those of you who believe RTE is objective news. This is the 'fact checker' in question. The best way to tell a lie is to tell a half truth.

Sounds like the words of a dictator not the president of what’s supposed to be a democracy.

Biased framing 101. Where's your wall to wall coverage of Varadkar? Shite hawks🤣

IrishAntifa If only Leo would threaten RTE with the same. This country would be a much better place

It's about bloody time, people have been begging him to do something about the serious political censorship happening on this site for ages now

I acc cannot believe a US president is getting away with being a dictator it’s mad

Its about time, if twitter claim to be a platform for people the can't shadow ban conservative opinions,lock accounts and fact check (incorrectly) if they do that its no longer a platform its an editorial site and should be treated as such. Which is what Trump will get them on 🥳

Spot on again. Twitter has long been known to take down conservative accounts.

Youtube, Facebook, Twitter etc should be under control of legislation same like other media.

North Korea is in the hay penny place

Finally a real man acting upon the enemy of the people.

That Man needs Jesus...

Ha! Toys everywhere!
