Twitter’s Trump ‘Fact Check’ Does Not Disclose Company Partnered with Groups Pushing Mail-In Ballots
Breitbart ^ | 5/27/2020 | aaron klein

Twitter for the first time put a fact-check label on tweets from President Trump, using the controversial tactic on messages in which the president complained there is “no way” that “mail-in ballots will be anything less than substantially fraudulent.”

It may be instructive that Twitter seized on the mail-in balloting tweets as the first issue from Trump’s rapid fire social media feed to slap with a fact-check label. Twitter did not disclose in its so-called fact-check it is partners with two groups financed by leftist donors that engage in voter participation efforts, including drives pushing mail-in balloting.

Twitter sits on the “Premier Partner” list of one of those groups alongside ViacomCBS, the merger of Viacom and CBS. Twitter’s so-called fact-check about Trump’s mail-in balloting cited CBS political reporter Grace Segers vouching for mail-in voting.

Analysts have posited such proposals help the Democratic Party. Republicans specifically fear the prospect of voter fraud, since mail-in voting would be harder to authenticate.

Yesterday, Trump tweeted the following, earning him the badge reading “Get the facts about mail-in ballots”:

I voted all by mail in WA state for 12 years. Never had to show my face or proof of citizenship to anyone.

Cheat, cheat, cheat.
That's all Democrats know to do.

They must be really worried by the internal polling to date.

President Trump’s epic victory was based on flipping key states. One of them was Pennsylvania. Pennsylvania is now a mail in vote state because of the POS Wolf and the GOP eunuchs. Consider the state already a win for Biden.We are in serious trouble. If I am sounding like a Karen so be it.I hope I am wrong with what the trend seems to be.

Uh no. Voting is selecting candidates or yes or no on issues. If i hand my ballot to the poll worker and they decide whether or not to put it in a balloon box, they are not voting for me, they are processing the ballot. If you mail my ballot, you are processing my ballot to the registrar not voting for me.

If you decided to destroy my ballot you are guilty of fraud.,

The point is that if the chances of someone getting caught is low, the chances of bad activity rise.

Witness the Dindus in Minnesota acting out today.

Twitter is a Leftist social media operation, period. Of course they censor opposing views. However, they should be stripped of their protections.
