In a late night tweet, Trump wrote:"These THUGS are dishonoring the memory of George Floyd, and I won't let that happen. Just spoke to Governor Tim Walz and told him that the Military is with him all the way. Any difficulty and we will assume control but, when the looting starts, the shooting starts. Thank you!"

"As is standard with this notice, engagements with the Tweet will be limited. People will be able to Retweet with Comment, but will not be able to Like, Reply or Retweet it."Trump, who has more than 80 million followers on Twitter, lashed out at the platform on Thursday, signing an executive order seeking to strip social media giants of legal immunity for content they carry.

The American Civil Liberties Union called Trump's order"a blatant and unconstitutional threat to punish social media companies that displease the president." The White House seeks to sidestep the provisions giving internet firms immunity by treating them as publishers operating in part of a"public square."

Matt Schruers, president of the Computer & Communications Industry Association, a trade group, warned that"retaliation against the private sector for fact-checking leadership is what we expect from foreign autocracies, not the United States."Internet firms have denied Trump's claims of bias, and point to his massive social media following.
