is the twitter account a public forum? >> no. that goes to the second critical error by the district court here. >> we believe that the state actions question, whether blocking itself is government authority, is a question that should be addressed before the public form. if there is no state action, there can't be a first amendment violation. the constitution does not prohibit private parties from engaging in conduct that inhibits conduct. >> is your argument that all of this is action by -- it's a private party? because if you are asking that, it's curious to me that the department of justice is here representing a private entity. >> it's the department's policy to defend public officials, federal officials who are sued in their official capacity. we contend that the plaintiffs are incorrect when they suggest that this was something that donald trump did in his official capacity. donald trump has had the ability to block anyone from this account since long before his presidency. this is not an authority that he is wielding by vi

the replies are available on twitter writ large. the search function on twitter would show replies. she individual repliers page would show them. >> that takes additional effort to do that? >> it takes the same amount of effort that would go to the replier's page instead of donald trump's page. in either case it's one step. they're still free to converse with other people because the forum here if we want to talk about it, is twitter, not his page. >> why are we limiting ourselves to that? walk me through how you get there. that's the nub of what's -- >> right. so i think the stipulated facts show several things about the way twitter works. first is that the replies themselves aren't actually hosted on donald trump's page. they're hosted on the broader twitter universe. second, the plaintiffs have full access to everything that everyone has said to donald trump in the broader twitter universe. i think the best way of thinking about the comment thread is there's a record of overlapping conversations that are happening and we also know from stipulated facts that most plaintiffs have i

reading his personal twitter account. the u.s. district court ruled against the president on first amendment grounds. -- is inl is against front of the second circuit. they heard oral argument on the case on tuesday. this is 40 minutes. >> good morning. please be seated. we will hear argument in night versus donald j. trump. >> good morning. issue is a twitter account created by donald trump of 40 before he became president that he has control over independent of his presidency. on his right to block people that account, and ability he shares in common with all twitter users. >> are you arguing that the only thing independent of his presidency is the blocking? or the account itself? >> the blocking. to analyzee trying whether or not state action or government action is being invoked, you look at the particular conduct at issue. you ask whether it is wielding the power of the government, or authority that has been given to the defendant by virtue of their office. >> this twitter account is a designated forum, then? >> no.

the better way of thinking about how twitter works is twitter itself -- >> we are engaged in a great conversation here as we try to figure this out. if you and add five minutes to -- would add five minutes to this. of twitter writ large, the entire privately owned platform as a private areping mall or park there many overlapping conversations that happen on twitter, each toson uses their account speak into the larger private forum. if the discussions are not happening specifically on that real donald trump they are happening across twitter in response to think he has said. the best example is they are not if he on at donald trump were to delete the tweet, the things that people have said to them when exist elsewhere, you could see them on the accounts, person whount of the has replied. lee's comment threads are better seen as a record of the conversations that are happening across twitter. locks someoneump he is not keeping them from these conversations, he is not -- >> he is making it more difficult for them to access his tweets commands and he? there are ways to go around this with

nunez is a third party claim he's a victim and suffered because of the twitter account users so twitter is far removed from that claim even if they had a claim against the users themselves which i don't think they have against twitter or the twitter users all right so congressman yes he's demanding that the social media platform disclose the identity identities behind those anonymous accounts that he says are causing him particular suffering and according to the suit devon yes his mom and devon union is cow two accounts have been posting things that he claims are defamatory what are the chances of devon uunet new yes succeeding and getting those identities revealed i think he might be able to get the identities it which is unfortunate because i think you'd want as a user of social media to let some of your information is protected and you know you spoke of the twitter agreement but i think there is a chance even though i think this is the furthest lawsuit that it will go a short distance and allow what's called discovery which is the exchange of information i think in that part of the l

in essence he can't sue twitter for that.rles: meantime the cow's followers have grown exponentially since this lawsuit. but as conservative you understand where the might and size of a facebook or a twitter or google, it is hard to go to find alternative to those. so the idea that you would go on these platforms to be ridiculed or mistreated is frustrating. >> i share the frustration of devin nunes, a lot of other people knocked off, some of them commentators, some people selling t-shirts, mugs, what have you. as lisa said, twitter is private company. they will not run anyone on right. i wish they would be honest we're not open platform for anybody that comes along. we're a bunch of leftists, socialists, conservatives need not apply. one of the "national review" contributors, are supporting "medicare for all" we wouldn't write. it that is our right. make them famous, pressure the company but i think regulation and lawsuits are not appropriate charles: if there was a change in the way government looks at entities, like they l

twitter is biased against everyone.he mars of the internet: it is inhospitable to human life, and for some reason, elon musk wants to be there. specifically, nunes calls out two parody accounts which he says have repeatedly tweeted and retweeted abusive and hateful content, the first being an account called @devinnunesmom. ( laughter ) >> jon: that's cold! >> stephen: that is cold, jon. that is ice cold. that's embarrassing, seeing a parody account of your mom. but even more embarrassing is seeing how it looks when written out in a formal lawsuit, because the suit says--and i quote-- "in her endless barrage of tweets, devin nunes' mom maliciously attacked every aspect of nunes' character." ( cheers and applause ) >> jon: wow. >> stephen: ouch! that's not the only parody account nunes called out. he also name-checked devin nunes' cow, which has tweeted such gems as "devin's boots are full of manure. he's udderly worthless, and it's pasture time to mooove him to prison." ( laughter ) ( applause ) devastating. trenchant. >

the question, kasie, are his twitter attacks beneath the office that he holds?se, listen to me, walk away. in another instance you heard him say, please, please, when i asked him the question again. so, a little bit of a headline there. not willing to engage on that point. but our peter alexander asked him what his message is to kids about these twitter attacks. he did engage on that point. not really answering directly, but instead pivoting to a defense of his use of twitter, saying it's his way to speak to his supporters, the american public in the face of what he called a corrupt media. no surprise, taking new aim at the media there. you also heard him again take new aim at george conway, so not stepping away from these attacks. kasie, there was also a bit of a headline when it came to the special counsel report by robert mueller. of course, we're all waiting for this report. we expect it to be released soon. the president saying, let the people see it. that is significant. really some of the strongest comments that he has made about making the mueller report

he's suing twitter for how twitter mix treated him and suing two twitter accounts, including two parityprotected by the communications decency act section 230. and whether parity accounts can be sued. but he's bringing attention to the problem. trish: these parity accounts, to viciously go after someone i get it. they are in the public eye. somehow people are losing sight of the fact that even in the public eye, they are people. and it's like this handwriting on the alabama room stal -- hane bathroom wall. and it goes out into the world and it lives there forever. >> when things are on line they say they are there forever. we did a tally of conservative influencers of people who are willing to fight the twitter power. we tallied 113 powerful people who were restricted on twitter. this is an ongoing problem. we looked at the top social media companies. twitter always end up being the worst of the bunch. that's just a reality. trish: do they need to shake things up? or do they need -- i typically don't like regulations. i'm a free market kind of gal. in the case of some of these social me

he is suing twitter, suing some twitter users for more than $250 million. that's $250 million. the complaint, which was filed this morning in virginia, accuses these cruisusers of defamation, of negligence, and it accuses twitter of censoring conservative voices. joining me now, nbc's capitol hill correspondent, casie hundredhunt, a ana and sahil is here as well. so one of the users he's suing is called devin nunes's cow. so walk us through what is happening here? >> that's the right question. i had that question myself when i first saw this story pop up. essentially, devin nunes is arguing that he has had to endure, you know, slights, insults, you know, in a way that nobody should ever have to deal with it, people making fun of him, people making crude jokes about him. and that all of this is essentially being enabled by the platform itself. because they have it out for conservatives. so, you know, i mean, our laws protect parody, for example, if you're satire, you're making fun of somebody that is protected under u.s. law. this idea of shadow banning is something that he's br

it comes into the world we know today with the rise of twitter. and so, over these periods, the country has become the -- the globe has become much more tied together, intertwined, much more engaged in good ways and bad. >> teddy roosevelt called the presidency the bully pulpit. how would you view donald trump? >> i think you would see it as the new bully trump pet and he's put it to use. >> what surprises you about how he's used social media? >> the total lack of filter. so when roosevelt or other presidents would use the bully pulpit it was done with a very carefully prepared, carefully crafted message behind that. we have a strong tradition, especially through the modern period. if you look at presidents like reagan, he had a team behind him who really crafted a very important message and they were very careful to shape every detail, they would pick backgrounds for photos. they would have key words of the day that they stressed throughout the day, and that they hammered home one theme and it was all very carefully thought out by a team of exper

nunes says twitter

the head of twitter who said that there was bias in twitter.re was bias and a lot of these companies, and i think devin nunes has a very important point. we've created this enormously powerful social media, but we haven't figured out how to control it, kind of like prometheus and fire, how to be control this thing? you mentioned the new zealand situation and so on. but i don't think there's any question that there is bias in these companies made the interesting thing is having some exposure to how these companies operate, i believe they don't think they are biased. they think they are just playing it right and straight level and that a guy like devin nunes is a threat to the republic and if i like bernie sanders as may be savior. but this is a problem with that bias is brought into it. big problem, needs to be addressed. >> sandra: i want to make sure got his exact words in there. he testified before congress last year, he said his platform is a kind of digital public square, although he insisted that twitter a private company retains the right

people like twitter, enterprises like that, are like a library.'re not an author of everything. they are trying to say, however, that because the platform itself has the ability to censor and can come on and off the platform is not truly one that should be regarded as a true hands-off laissez-faire approach. i think he's also showing he's had enough and this is a conspiracy theory about how there is this underlying conspiracy to say they want to silence this particular voice in contradiction of the first amendment. >> what is his goal here? does he feel like these accounts are actually having an effect on his popularity? is he thin-skinned and just sick of it? what do you think, rachel? >> a lot of people are scratching their heads wondering the same thing. right now one of the theories, right, former chairman of a very powerful house committee when republicans controlled the house, lost the majority, maybe he's a little bored right now. no, there is actually a reason for this. he's getting at the politics. conservatives have long gone after twitt

awesome. >>> he's suing twitter and three twitter users.hem of defamation for parody accounts that attacked him. it also says that twitter harbors against conservatives. >> people aren't getting through and it seems to be if they're conservative, if they're republicans, if they're in a certain group there's discrimination and big discrimination. i see it absolutely on twitter and facebook which i have also and others i see, but i really focus more on the one platform and i have many different platforms we have almost 60 million on twitter and if you add them up it's way over 100 million people and i get to see firsthand what's going on and it's not good. >> arthur of everything trump touches dies. so i mean, what do you make of this? can you sue twitter and three twitter users? it seems surprising to me? >> you can sue anyone you want. obviously the bar for defamation for a public official is quite high. i imagine nunes consulted a lawyer and would have to know that. i don't think he seriously believes that twitter is going to pay him the $

i see it absolutely on twitter.ing the lawsuit against social media sites is the first of many. he says that anonymous users troll him with fake claims and face no consequences. he is asking for $250 million in damages for tweets he described as causing extreme pain and suffering. >> the case we're making this was orchestrated effort. people were targeting me. there were anonymous accounts that were developed. look, there is not supposed to be, these accounts are not supposed to exist. twitter says they don't have accounts that do this. reporter: three twitter users at the center of this lawsuit. two a anonymous parody accounts. one posing as his mom and his cow. also a republican strategist caught up in this as well. nunes claims offensive tweets harassing him online are part of a larger strategy on twitter to allow republicans to be silenced and slandered and promoting liberal posts as well. susan: hillary, thank you. connell: fedex on the move, the stock is lower. cut full year for the second time, citing weaker

he mentioned his twitter. welcome a pro-america brazilian president arrives in d.c. that is bolsonaro tweeting on his arrival to washington. >> the past two presidents in brazil have been very socialist in their orientation. economically it has not been for good for the country. when you look at the contrast between maduro in venezuela and the ravaging that is happening in that country under his leadership, and what's going on with bolsonaro -- it's early, as i said, he was just elected in january. this the first meeting with a u.s. president. we will see if he has potential. we'll talk about it potential military alliance that would allow them to purchase u.s. defense. that is one of the big topics here. >> harris: you say -- this is the first bilateral trip of his presidency and he chose to do that in washington. >> this is probably the safest place for him. he's been compared to trump in many places and i think they wanted to be eyeball to eyeball as they want to do when they establish a new relationship. i

can you sue twitter and three twitter users? it seems surprising to me?you can sue anyone you want. obviously the bar for defamation for a public official is quite high. i imagine nunes consulted a lawyer and would have to know that. i don't think he seriously believes that twitter is going to pay him the $250 million he's looking for. it seems like a publicity stunt. a way to promote this idea among his fan base that somehow twitter is shadow banning conservatives. it's not a serious lawsuit. it's utterly ridiculous. >> it also fits into the whole we are victims narrative that seems to be very popular among some on the right. >> sure. >> it's absolutely part of this, you know, all the forces of society are against us. it's just us and donald trump against the world. look, nunes is proving himself to be the republican party. this guy made a huge mistake doing this and the fact is he's given himself the effect the more you try to cover up something the more it gets exposed. he made this thing. no one knew who it was before this and now it has 250,000 follo

one twitter using warning devin cow that dark days are coming to which the twitter cow replied, "dudeyou're threatening a cow." nunes said twitter did nothing to stop assault because of agenda to allow conservatives to be insulted and silenced. >> i guarantee you, if i put something out that was sexually explicit or ark tack someone personally, they would stop it. they would say this is a sensitive tweet. they never did that to any of the people that were coming after me or other conservatives. so this is more about, more than just conservatives. every american should care about this if they care about the first amendment because the press is definitely changed. >> and nunes warns this is "the first of many lawsuits targeting social media," certain twitter uses might welcome that. at devin cow had 1200 followers prior to the lawsuit being announced, as of now, the cow has 115,000 followers. dana. >> dana: the cow gaining some weight there. thank you so much. elizabeth warren adding new issue to her liberal agenda, will plans to get rid of the electoral college get traction? our politi

twitter has denied that it does shadow banning.theemoved accounts in question and there has been very little evidence that there is such a thing as shadow banning or that exists in any systematic way on twitter. if you look at conservative voices are flourishing on who areand people criticized by the right would has plenty of followers on twitter and is able to get a following widely. think donald trump himself uses twitter to publicize his views, bashes opponents. -- bash his opponents. david: my understanding is shadow banning means you can see your tweets but other people cannot. there is also an allegation they permitted and make money off of other people attacking mr. nunes and he is suing them for that as well. the people who did the attacking as well as twitter for tolerating it. tom: yes. some of those tweets are not very complementary of the congressman. in fact, i think what is he isant to remember is saying these are defamatory, these things have been hurtful to him. it is a question of do people recognize this as a paro
