Yesterday morning Mika Brzezinski called for Twitter’s @Jack to censor Trump by taking down his account:
“@jack At what point is @Twitter a part of this? TAKE DOWN TRUMP’s ACCOUNT— the world world be safer. Retweet if you agree”

What a putz. She’s actually trying to guilt Twitter into taking down Trump’s account by suggesting they are to blame for his tweets continuing.
Ted Cruz just called her out for this nonsense, saying:
“The media should NOT be asking Silicon Valley billionaires to silence the President of the United States. If you disagree w/ what he says—as I also do at times—then engage on the merits. Say why you think he’s wrong. Journalists should NOT be calling for censorship. #FreeSpeech”

He’s absolutely right. The speech that should most be protected is the speech we disagree with. But gone are the days of actually disagreeing with someone. Rather, having them silenced is the way to go in our liberal shutdown culture.
My fear is that @Jack is going to cave to these freaks on the left who want Trump silenced. We’ve already told you how Jack is considering putting some kind of warning label on Trump’s tweets. With the Mika’s and Kamala’s of the world trying to pressure and even blame him, he may decide that’s not good enough.
