Hillary Clinton: If We Don’t Censor Social Media, We Lose Total Control

Hillary Clinton recently caused a stir by calling for increased regulation of social media platforms, warning that without content moderation, “we lose total control.” During a CNN interview, she argued for repealing Section 230, a law that shields platforms like X (formerly Twitter), Facebook, and Instagram from liability over user-generated content.

NEW: Hillary Clinton says social platforms like X need to censor & monitor content because if they don’t, “we lose total control.”

She’s not even secretive about it.

Clinton emphasized that the current legal protections are outdated, saying that without proper moderation, the social and psychological consequences of unchecked content can be severe. She called for national legislation, noting that while some states have implemented regulations, federal action is necessary to prevent harmful content from spreading online.

This statement has drawn both support and criticism. Critics, including free speech advocates, argue that repealing Section 230 could lead to increased censorship and limit freedom of expression. Clinton’s remarks highlight ongoing debates about how to balance free speech with the need to combat misinformation and harmful content on social media.

BUTLER, PA – The assassination attempt on Donald Trump during a July 2024 rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, shocked the nation. Corey Comperatore, a 50-year-old volunteer firefighter from Buffalo Township, was tragically killed while trying to protect his family from the gunfire that erupted.

Comperatore had attended the rally with his loved ones when a shooter opened fire in an attempt to kill the former president. Corey acted heroically, shielding his family before being fatally struck.

At Trump’s recent rally in Butler, the former president paid tribute to Corey, dedicating the event to him and warmly embracing his grieving family. In a heartfelt moment, Trump invited the Comperatore family to dinner at Mar-a-Lago, further honoring the memory of the man who gave his life that day.

Comperatore was well-known in his community for his dedication to public service. A former fire chief and Army reservist, he had spent decades serving his local fire department.

His colleagues praised his leadership, bravery, and commitment. The rally where he lost his life was a return event for Trump, who survived the assassination attempt but reflected on the profound loss of Corey and others affected by the violence​.
