Klobuchar: My Bill Will Make Social Media Companies ‘Liable’ if They Don’t Take Down COVID ‘Crap’

Pam Key 20 Jul 2021

Senator Amy Klobuchar (D-MN) said Tuesday on ABC’s “The View” that she is introducing a bill to make social media companies like Facebook and t “liable” if they do not take down coronavirus vaccine misinformation which she called “crap.”

Klobuchar said, “Our goal right now is to get everyone vaccinated in any way and message possible. Some people listen to Dolly Parton. Some people are going to listen to Barack Obama. We need to get the information out, and the misinformation is hurting us in such a big way.”

She continued, “There are babies that are getting sick. There are young children. I was reading about Mississippi on ventilators. So getting people vaccinated, I’ve literally thought creatively myself, maybe we need billboards everywhere about the percentage that are dying that are not vaccinated and the percentage which as you know is infinitesimal that are vaccinated. We are at a moment in time where we’ve got to be open to every new idea here, and one of the best ideas is to stop the misinformation. Sean Hannity gets a vaccine, that’s great, but let’s get it out to all his people. Hospital workers, anything we can do to incentivize that. Businesses, many of them are actually requiring people to get vaccines. Universities are doing it. I think bit by bit, that’s what we have to do.”

Klobuchar added, “At the same time, the misinformation on the internet, which is something I’m personally taking on, is outrageous. These are the biggest, richest companies in the world that control these platforms, and they’ve got to take this crap off. We are in a public health crisis. We still are. We’ve seen major improvements thanks to the vaccines, the ingenuity of people, the Biden administration getting this out, but this is holding us back. Two-thirds of the people that are not vaccinated believe something that they read on the internet. That’s all the facts I need. That’s from a Kaiser Foundation report. So I’m going to introduce a bill to limit the misinformation on vaccines by saying, you guys are liable if you don’t take it off your platforms.”

Communist first amendment: You the freedom to print what the state says is the truth and only what the state says is the truth.

Klobuchar is just getting ahead of herself.

Mother Russia/China freedom is here,your freedom is what the socialist utopians say it is and nothing more. Having turned you backs on God and Country, how do you like your NeverTrumper utopia now ? Don't cower like cowards in the dark, hip, Hip HOORAY! celebrate! Desolation like the Bible promised is already showing its approach, and you did your part !

Introducing a bill is the easy part. Passing it is harder because it has to go through debate and it has to have so many votes to pass

A lot of times politicians introduced pills just to get noticed in the press. But this is clearly a violation of the First Amendment.

@christian
The never Trumper stuffs getting a bit long in tooth don't ya think? Why don't you try this golden oldie for a while, 'If you didn't vote for Trump you voted for Biden'. And that bitching and bitching............? Don't get me wrong I don't disagree with everything, or even a lot of things you say, but your ......harshness? tends to make me at times skip what may be a good post. Not trying to start an argument with you, just my personal opinion. Take or leave it, as you will.

The point is and is ignored is that the the NeverTrumper damage and the longevity of it is with us and may well have contributed to the death of this nation. The stonewalling and denial while following the lies was in your face when the damage was greatly established. This is my Country and as long as their damage is inflicted is as long as they need to be reminded of what their mindless following evil pied pipers is far from innocence and long lasting in the damage. Damage they seem to shirk responsibility there of. They need in their face reminders, as the damage destroys our nation from within and continues today and into tomorrow. They wouldn't listen then, why should their destructive influences be listened to as excuses and rationalizations now ? or even cowering silences now? 3,000 died on 9-11 by democrats buddies, radical muslims. 4,000/million? recently died world wide by China and turned our Country over to radicals burning cities.
If it isn't time to take them and their accomplishes to ask and demand accountability, when will it be ? ? ?
The co-vid and election overthrow and the attempts to overthrow Pres. Trump while in office, just a tip of the iceberg recently!

I’m not a NeverTrumper, however many of us did complain about Trump’s overspending and we’re also fretful of Joe Biden.

It’s part of the reason we’re experiencing the inflation we are today.

This is why I don’t believe that Donald Trump is the answer for 2024. Our fiscal situation is becoming dire and it’s the most important issues facing this country long-term. Trump loved to spend just as much as Obama and Joe Biden

Anyways back to the topic of this thread

I think Amy Klobuchar is ignorant of the history of what she’s advocating. If you told her how all tyrants, without fail, do what she’s proposing, she probably would look at you with a blank stare

As we run pell mell into hyperinflation, remember all those trillions you approved of with Tumpy's signature.

And you have the balls to criticize those of us who stand for fiscal conservatism.

Hypocrisy.

This is why I oppose Trump getting the nomination in 2024. It will be hard for him to make Biden’s overspending an issue

In fact, if I recall, Trump was critical of Biden’s stimulus early this year for not spending enough

There is nothing that would cause me to endorse Tumpy. He dealt a MASSIVE blow to both libertarianism and fiscal conservatism - The very heart of conservatism - and that can never be overlooked. It is appalling to me that so many don't understand what they have done.

How could it be more clear as they tell us; Trump,Obama and Biden are all the same about spending, that is why we cannot have Trump in office again. Notice they do not say the same of Obama or Biden. They are same? Is your brain working that you cannot see this for what it is? Only Trump gets slammed in the scenario they continually try and press. Democrats not so mysteriously continuously get a pass.

The useful fool is the one voting FOR the theft of our treasure.

And that ain't me.

I didn't and won't vote for Obummer.
I didn't and won't vote for Tumpy.
I didn't and won't vote for Biteme.

They are INDEED all the same. Wholly AGAINST libertarianism, wholly AGAINST fiscal conservatism.

There is NO defense of Tumpy in fiscal matters. NONE.
There is NO defense of Tumpy in libertarian matters. NONE.

That is TWO of three root causes of Conservatism. causes in which he not only failed utterly, but did massive damage that your grandchildren won't pay off. And the ridiculous part of it is that unless you are an imbecile, YOU MUST KNOW IT. And you want more.

With apologies to @Cyber Liberty WE ALL expect the commie Dems to spend like a Drunken Sailor, it's what they do. What we were surprised at is that Trump spent like a Drunken Sailor on meth. Most of us 'learned Briefers' knew this would happen, after all, only Cruz campaigned on the Debt/Deficit in 15/16.

Proof was in the pudding, what does a Bankruptcy usually indicate (?) and how many times did Trump do just that????? @christian
