WASHINGTON — President Trump said that social media platforms are “discriminating against” Republican and conservative voices, but “we won’t let that happen.” Companies like Twitter, Google and Facebook deny that they have targeted or singled out rightward forms of content. Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) grilled Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg over the claims at a hearing in April. Facebook, Google’s YouTube, Twitter and Apple have restricted or temporarily limited right-wing conspiracy theorist Alex Jones’s accounts for violating terms of service or community guidelines. Those include bans on harassment and hate speech. “Social Media is totally discriminating against Republican/Conservative voices,” Trump wrote. “Speaking loudly and clearly for the Trump Administration, we won’t let that happen. They are closing down the opinions of many people on the RIGHT, while at the same time doing nothing to others…….” He added, “….Censorship is a very dangerou...
