Twitter to testify before the Senate concerning their role in the Russian interference during the 2016 election cycle.

Courtesy of The Hill: 

Representatives from Twitter will meet with staff from the U.S. Senate Select Committee on Intelligence next week in connection with the panel's investigation of Russian interference in the 2016 election. 

The social media company says that it will address fake bot accounts as well as the dissemination of hoax stories and false news on its platform with committee staffers. 

“We are cooperating with the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence in its inquiry into the 2016 election and will meet with committee staff next week,” a Twitter spokesperson told The Hill on Thursday. “Twitter deeply respects the integrity of the election process, a cornerstone of all democracies, and will continue to strengthen our platform against bots and other forms of manipulation that violate our Terms of Service.” 

Senate investigators are expanding their probe into Russia's use of social media to influence Americans during the election.

I have been waiting for Twitter to be called to testify about their part in helping to steal this election.

I think they are at least as complicit as Facebook in what happened, and I am sure they have a lot of valuable information to share with investigators.

If they really wanted to demonstrate their patriotism they would close Donald Trump's account.

    if twitter closed dumpt account he would force his staff to give him theirs. there is no way you could stop the orange man-child. but it would be funnny to see the temper tantrum.

    Humpty Trumpty would sue, claiming they had no legitimate reason for shutting him out.

    DJT has stepped in it. Read the official statement from North Korea. What they said about Trump only his base would disagree.

    Normally I'm sympathetic to people who have depression, but not Ivanka. https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/to-your-health/wp/2017/09/20/ivanka-trump-reveals-struggles-with-postpartum-depression-on-dr-oz/?sw_bypass=true&utm_term=.0c01ab21123c

    NK kim called trump a "dotard"? Whats that? According to Webster it means state of senile decay, marked by mental decline of alertness and poise.
    So.
    It is time to remove both of these hair brain dotard idiots causing the world discomfort and non productive unnecessary grief...these mentally deranged useful idiots to our known enemies and deceitful friends must be removed from authority and power. They are not leaders they are dictators. They wish to enslave their fellow man woman child and harm humanity. This small mentally raptured human defective genes and dna of hate must end.
