Gym Jordan threatens Twitter investigation if GOP wins majority: "It always seems to me they go

conservatives."

Rep. Jordan (R-OH) threatened a Twitter investigation if GOP wins the majority this fall, "It always seems to me they go after conservatives."

Republicans have targeted their criticism over Twitter’s throttling back and censorship of conservative thoughts and opinions on their platform.

Rep. Jordan said that Twitter is like the public square where debates happen, and it should let that happen and have a fair referee.

“Let's have a referee who calls balls and strikes, who doesn't call the game for one side. That's all we've ever asked for. I hope that's the direction it goes and looks like it may be moving that way,” he said.

After all, they’re the ones peddling disinfo and heinous crap. Maybe Twitter isn’t doing a good enough job identifying and ejecting their awful asses.

It has already been done Jordan. It has been researched.

Conservatives DO get suspended and banned more than Liberals. It is a fact. The reason behind the fact is that Conservatives break TOS way more than Liberals. When Liberals break TOS, they get suspended and maybe banned too. We do not, however, break TOS and knowingly spread lies in ANY manner or quantity that Conservatives do.

It is like the Mafia saying, "Hey, the goddamned cops are always on us, trying to catch us in the act, tapping our phones and watching the places we meet. The cops are NEVER watching the ACLU, why is that?"

Yeah, you are the Mafia, you exist to profit from criminal activity. If you were running legitimate businesses then no one would be watching you.

He met w/Jordan as a courtesy to a mutual friend and he never told me about it until a
few years ago but and he told me that Jordan wanted to meet again and my father (a
republican) said no thanx. Hopefully he will be gone after this election and his new district.

For the life of me I don't see why people like Jordan who worked to overthrow our democracy
and supported a violent attack on the nation's Capitol still have a seat in congress.
