11 Hacks, Leaks, And Hoaxes That Twitter And Facebook Didn’t Throttle — Because They Hurt Trumphttps://thefederalist.com/2020/10/15/11-hacks-leaks-and-hoaxes-that-twitter-and-facebook-didnt-throttle-because-they-hurt-trump/The company claims these statements aim to provide “clarity†about its policies. But they actually make the tech giant seem even more duplicitous.

6. Atlantic Claims of Trump Badmouthing Military
In early September, The Atlantic published claims of President Trump badmouthing fallen American soldiers based on the word of four unnamed sources.
