Offensive material from the POTUS will also receive a label that applies to all verified political candidates and government officials with over 100,000 followers, according to the Washington Post.
Before users can view the language in newly flagged tweets, they will need to click on a screen that says, “The Twitter Rules about abusive behavior apply to this Tweet. However, Twitter has determined that it may be in the public’s interest for the Tweet to remain available.”
The company also said it will set up a special team tasked with enforcing the policy, and the notification label would appear only on rare occasions. –Washington Post

Twitter will deprioritize the labeled tweets so that they would be seen by fewer people according to the report, which adds that the policy will go into effect immediately and will not apply to other influencers and leaders. It is also not retroactive.

“In the past, we’ve allowed certain Tweets that violated our rules to remain on Twitter because they were in the public’s interest, but it wasn’t clear when and how we made those determinations,” the company wrote in a Thursday blog post. “To fix that, we’re introducing a new notice that will provide additional clarity in these situations, and sharing more on when and why we’ll use it.”

I think its criminal that anyone ‘thinks’ they have the right to decide what I read and dont read, who are they? Besides I enjoy the insane trivia that comes out of trumpsds tweets ,it lets me know the top lot have really lost the plot.
Every illegal anti democratic act by government is now done by their PROXIES a sort of fake schism (Theatrics) to try to undermine our rights and the Constitution. Government will say its the private sector setting policy for themselves. When we are learning daily the corrupt politicians or at least their corporate puppet masters are behind it. That is how they can get around illegally inciting wars. at best, semantics, at worst, treason.
Greg Dampier, you are exactly correct! The puppet masters have complete control of our media and government agencies and are so corrupt that even when it is obvious that treason has been committed, (ie: Hillary Clinton), there are no worries for them to be held to our laws or the constitution of our country! What a monopoly to influence public opinion and shut down anyone who disagrees!
