Republicans will stick to Twitter of course, most of them are either anti-vaxxers, conspiratards or white nationalists. Twitter will be the new Truth Social.
Twitter will be like Fox News, biased to fukk, like right wing bs that Murdoch is so famous at promoting, it'll be like ET's Political Forum, infested with Russian and Chinese trolls quoting lies, except mostly all the reasonable moderating posters will have departed for better greener pastures, why stick around arguing all day with Trump, Musk, Putin and Xi Jinping cultists.
Judge Orders Biden Officials to Limit Contact With Social-Media Companies Ruling says Biden administration policing of social media likely violated First Amendment https://www.wsj.com/articles/judge-...mpled-on-free-speech-on-social-media-29334362
A federal judge ruled that the Biden administration likely trampled on the First Amendment in trying to eliminate what it saw as disinformation on social media, issuing a broad preliminary injunction limiting the federal government from policing online content. In a 155-page ruling issued Tuesday, U.S. District Judge Terry Doughty of Louisiana barred White House officials and multiple federal agencies from contacting social-media companies with the purpose of suppressing political views and other speech normally protected from government censorship. The judge’s injunction came in a lawsuit led by the Republican attorneys general of Missouri and Louisiana who alleged that the Biden administration fostered a sprawling “federal censorship enterprise.” The federal government, the lawsuit claimed, pressured social-media platforms to scrub away disfavored views about Covid-19 health policies, the origins of the pandemic, the Hunter Biden laptop story, election security and other sensitive topics. The case is among the most potentially consequential First Amendment battles pending in the courts, testing the limits on government scrutiny of social-media content on Twitter, Facebook, YouTube and other major platforms.

Bill Cassidy, Senate Committee on the Judiciary “[T]he evidence produced thus far depicts an almost dystopian scenario,” wrote Judge Doughty. “During the COVID-19 pandemic, a period perhaps best characterized by widespread doubt and uncertainty, the United States Government seems to have assumed a role similar to an Orwellian ‘Ministry of Truth.’” The judge said the plaintiffs “have presented substantial evidence in support of their claims that they were the victims of a far-reaching and widespread censorship campaign.” A spokesman for the Justice Department declined to comment. Missouri v. Biden, as the case is called, is among dozens of so-called censorship-by-proxy lawsuits challenging account suspensions, content removals and other suppression of social-media posts on First Amendment grounds.
The "Twitter Files" exposed nothing. It was a laughable nothing-burger. This absurd ruling by a Trump appointed judge will quickly be overturned in the appeals court. I will note the plaintiffs went venue shopping when filing the suit.
