Trump Vows to Veto Military Spending Bill over Anger at Twitter, Facebook
-------------------------------------------------------------------------

President Trump tweeted late Thursday he will veto the massive $740
billion National Defense Authorization Act, because Republican senators
refused to include an amendment to strip legal protections for social
media companies. Trump is demanding the repeal of Section 230 of the
Communications Decency Act to punish Twitter and Facebook, which he has
accused of censoring his false and misleading tweets about the
coronavirus and the 2020 election.
