i would have liked to see facebook and twitter included so they could put their feet to the fire in public.

but most of the msm talk of course is about how 'far-right' the invitees are. even tim pool

President Trump on Thursday is hosting a social media summit with some of his biggest social media supporters and some lawmakers. Facebook and Twitter have reportedly been excluded from the summit.

This comes at a time when the president, an enthusiastic user of social media — especially Twitter, which he often deploys to rally his base — has been criticizing the social media platforms, accusing them of silencing those who support him.

One guest, a Twitter user who goes by CarpeDonktum, said that when he got the email invitation to the White House, he thought it might be spam.

He requested that we withhold his real name. He says he fears retaliation against his family.

“Far right extremists with ties to white nationalism”
No bias there, from Far Left npr.
Im just not seeing “far” anything on national stage like we are “far left”, who are clean out of the closet.

The French are the ones taking on the internet giants and other countries are considering similar action, ands guess what the Trump administration has denounced the and stated it will consider punitive action against the French.

We all know that internet giants can't keep getting away with paying virtually no tax, and countries have every right to make up their own tax laws.

Better form a right wing circle jerk to talk about anti-right wing bias. Tell me what I want to hear!

https://news.yahoo.com/trump-speak-c...BfMQRzZWMDc3I-

"President Donald Trump will welcome Republicans, right-wing social media personalities and conservative policy makers to the White House on Thursday for a "social media summit" that reportedly won't include some of the world's largest platforms -- Twitter, Google or Facebook.

How do you have a social media summit without Facebook, Twitter, or Google?
