Joe Biden is not leaving anything to chance.
But Biden made a big mistake.
Elon Musk sounded this giant red flag about Joe Biden’s secret plan.
As Black Eye Politics reports:
Unwilling to allow any platform to exist outside of their total control, the Left has turned almost all of their attention to Twitter in the wake of Elon Musk’s purchase of the social media site.
With left-wing activists in command of nearly every aspect of America’s mass media, including print, television, and Big Tech internet firms, Twitter now stands as the most prominent example of one of the only platforms where leftists no longer have absolute control.
And since his purchase of Twitter, Musk has unbanned multiple conservative-leaning accounts, including that of Donald Trump.
But Musk’s actions have drawn the ire of left-wing activists in the press and liberal Democrats in Congress, who now appear to be gearing up to use multiple federal agencies to target both Musk and Twitter alike.
And these threats have only grown following news that Donald Trump may be planning a return to Twitter after months of remaining silent on the site following his unbanning.
Fox Business reports, “Elon Musk said the Biden administration could possibly ‘weaponize Federal agencies’ against the social media platform if former President Trump begins using his once-disabled account.”
“Will be interesting to see how the Biden administration reacts to this,” Musk tweeted in response to a report that Trump could be returning to Twitter in the coming weeks. “They may try to weaponize Federal agencies against Twitter.”
Democrats had previously demanded that Trump be permanently banned from all social media sites, and decried Musk’s decision to lift Trump’s ban as an act of “violence.”
Musk defended the decision however, noting how important it is to allow people to exercise freedom of speech, and that Twitter has emerged as a de facto public square in recent years.
That defense however is unlikely to convince Democrats to back off of their planned assault on both Twitter and Trump.
And for the Left, using a defense of the Constitution to back up a decision to restore freedom of speech on a site like Twitter means absolutely nothing.
For many of the left-wing political activists threatening Musk and Trump with an avalanche of federal investigations, potential lawsuits, and possibly even legislation, the Constitution is an obstacle to overcome rather than a bulwark of individual liberty to uphold.
And with Joe Biden having recently found himself in the middle of a massive scandal involving his decision to leave classified materials in his garage, unleashing federal agencies against Twitter to attack Elon Musk for allowing Donald Trump back on the site could serve as the perfect distraction.
What’s more, if Biden targets Twitter with the Department of Justice, he could also possibly shore up his own left-wing base, which has increasingly soured on him in the wake of the scandal breaking.
And with his 2024 re-election announcement still hanging in the balance, Biden knows he needs as much support from the Left as he can get.
