Federal Judge Rules That Trump Cannot Block People From His Twitter Feed
This seems really dumb. Does it also apply to other Federal office holders? Staffers? Bureaucrats?
— Ari Fleischer (@AriFleischer) May 23, 2018
I block for vulgarity and anti-Semitism. If I had a government phone as a staffer, would I be prohibited from doing so? https://t.co/W5T1LGkUaL
President Donald J. Trump can't block his critics from following his personal Twitter account, a federal judge ruled. The judge said the comment section of Trump’s personal account, @realDonaldTrump, is a public forum and that blocking users on the basis of political speech is a violation of their free-speech rights under the First Amendment.I'm pretty sure that Democrat officials have me blocked-- Senators like Claire McCaskill -- so, will this judge demand they hear my criticisms?
The judge declined to issue an order because she has no power to order an Article II executive to do anything. I hope Trump simply ignores her. Update:
... "This case requires us to consider whether a public official may, consistent with the First Amendment, 'block' a person from his Twitter account in response to the political views that person has expressed, and whether the analysis differs because that public official is the President of the United States," Buchwald said. "The answer to both questions is no." The judge declined to issue an order forcing Trump to unblock the users, saying her ruling should be sufficient to force a change in behavior.
Guess my senator has to unblock me now. pic.twitter.com/7lAJvSclPh

It's weird because I was just thinking yesterday that they may block Trump from Twitter or other social media outlets because he has been so successful in getting his word out around the media and they are angry little tyrants at this.
I thought it wouldn't happen because that would be yet another red line Americans would not support.
But then this happened. It's similar. Close. Inching towards stifling his tweets. This may be the "trigger" they are looking for. An excuse to ban him completely.

1) Newspapers that publish online, being public and run by public figures and nominally in the public interest (per how they're regulated), *must* have unmoderated comments sections.
2) Twitter, being a public forum, cannot ban anyone for speech alone, nor can they shadowban.
3) Twitter, being a public forum, must not manipulate "trending" hashtags and topics.
3) Congressmen must diligently check voicemail or add voicemail capacity. A full inbox is no excuse for closing out that particular "public forum."
4) No other elected or appointed-and-confirmed individual may block anyone from their Twitter feeds.
I look to the horde for more. Opportunity to turn this into a major blow against the speech controllers, should it stand?

She doesn't have to. Twitter will jump on this and unblock everyone the Trump account has blocked.
Besides, the judge has no power to rule how people block or don't block on Twitter to begin with, and that didn't stop her.

So now that a Federal Judge has called Twitter a defacto "public forum", it can no longer shadowban conservative posters with ideas not worshiped by the Left. A private company cannot control what is said in "a public forum".
This is a very good move (although I completely disagree with it) for conservatives.

Yeah, that is my wonder about the strategy of this. If Trump cannot block anyone then every tom dick and harry can post on his feed. If everything is allowed on his feed, it will become a thread of nothing but nonstop racism and illegal porn. People will block HIM. Therefore his ability to bypass the media and speak directly to the public will be compromised.
They really hate that he can speak on twitter without them filtering it.

Pronography is legal, but regulated. So I would have to say "yes," so long as the recipient is an adult and you hit that "adult content" button when you post.
If the public official you are targeting is a minor child or you fail to set the flag, then "no" but otherwise go hog-wild.

Twitter cannot deny anyone a twitter account and must give everyone three months notice before it suspends them.

the next lawsuit must be to make the judge get a twitter account.
That does seem to be a reasonable extension from her idiotic ruling:
that no political official may not lack a social media platform. That
they must have one, and cannot block anyone on it.

Haven't you noticed that these jerks can now go into any event, anywhere on a college campus or in town hall and start screaming, shouting, jump up on the stage and completely disrupt the entire event and no one does a single thing about it?
This shit started with Obama and his brownshirt OFA Marxists. They would go to every Tea Party event, space themselves out in the crowd and begin screaming, shouting , jumping up and down to where the crowd would try to move away from them so they could hear the speaker. And they would keep it up, hoping someone would dare punch one of them so they could get on TV and subsequently have the person arrested and then sued for assault.
I attended a Tea Party rally and had this exact thing happen with this asshole standing next to me screaming and shouting and scaring the little kids with their parents in front of me so they started crying.

So if it is a public forum, and censorship violates free speech rights under the first amendment, then it follows that Twitter cannot censor speech based on political views for the same reason.

A sufficiently industrious lawyer/plaintiff could, however, turn around and use the ruling to beat Twitter, Facebook et al severely about the head and shoulders for suppressing "political" opinions that "public officials" might otherwise see, if the suppression had not occurred.

Can that judge block people from her Twitter feed?

They could have just gone with the excuse that blocking people prevented their 1st Amendment right to petition for a redress of grievances, but this sets the ground work to go further and could apply to all public personages... meaning that potential no blue check mark individual can block anyone.
But the really big deal is that Twitter is a "public forum" where one has "1st Amendment rights" to speech including "political speech". Presumably this can be applied to other similar Internet "public forums" such as Facebook and Youtube.
If used strategically, these companies can be forced to not only allow, but not even discriminate based on one's politics, which is in stark contrast to their dishonest manipulation of information.

Posted by: LASue at May 23, 2018 03:27 PM (BZA5F)
never used it and never will. But I think it stops them from crapping over everything he says. You know, he might want to consider disabling comments. Maybe they don't have that feature, but that is pretty standard right? Googletube has it. Who cares about comments, he just want's to get his message out.
My other idea. And then I will hang up and listen. He should move his "tweeting" to a friendly site or even a .gov. Then have some officials or "friends and family" tweet what he says for those that only follow twitter.

I don't think they're that stupid. If they stop Trump from blocking because they're a "public forum", they invite the whole thing to be taken out of their hands.
They might, because Jack's a liberal, and thought is not their strong suit--so they'll just later have to use another special pleading to get out of it.

"This case requires us to consider whether a public official may, consistent with the First Amendment, "block" a person from his Twitter account in response to the political views that person has expressed, and whether the analysis differs because that public official is the President of the United States. The answer to both questions is no."
Given that no #1 refers to "a public official" and no #2 refers specifically to the President, the ruling, such as it is, applies to ALL public officials.

Wouldn't this same ruling require the Editorial board of every single newspaper to accept and print every single letter to the editor? As it is now, they pick and choose those that represent their agenda. Since the NYT's accepts editorials from the likes of James Comey and Bill Clinton, wouldn't they now be obligated to accept my own personal entry as a guest Op-ed?
And finally, is the judge saying that no one can block anyone? That sure seems to be the case. She states that the decision wasn't based on Trump being the president. It was based on it being a public forum. So either Twitter is a "public" forum and no one can block anyone, or it's a private forum and this judge has not standing to set policy on a private business. Which is it?

========
To restate what others have, based on this ruling...
i) The President's twitter feed is a "public forum" which means everyone has the right to post on it.
ii) Therefore people who are banned from twitter have the right to post on it.
iii) Therefore twitter must unban them all.
I'm half hoping he lashes into twitter demanding they unban all people they have, and only then will he start unbanning people.

All kidding aside, the phrase that all lawyers learn is "The Court speaks through its orders." Courts usually issue Opinions and Orders where the opinion lays out the issues, the laws, the reasoning and then...ta-da...the actual order. Without the order part it is just an opinion. No one has to do anything with it, not even read it. It has no legal weight behind it.
She even admitted as much:
The judge declined to issue an order forcing Trump to unblock the users, saying her ruling should be sufficient to force a change in behavior.

There's no question that he's the biggest target on earth for Muslim radicals. They'll do everything in their power to kill him, because there's nothing a religious zealot hates worse than a heretic.

That was assault on his part. I would have bum rushed him out of the event - thrown him in the street and told him he was barred from the premises, and that if he make any attempt to return I would have him arrested for criminal trespass.

Especially since it is his personal twitter account. I might feel a bit different about @POTUS or similar.
The other aspect of this is that it seems to me that FedGov mail servers *must* allow spam, malware, and phishing emails. That seems...not right.
