I'm for sure late, but even if Trump vetoes, won't the new Congress and Biden pass a clean defense bill? I know this doesn't rule out something else happening with 230, but I just don't see this particular legislative strategy working.

But Trump is totally going to win his court challenges. Duh!

Long time lurker; Only made an account recently. Should the worst come to pass, I just want to express my admiration for this site, its users, and the king autist who keeps it running. Thank you all, and make sure to keep laughing - otherwise the baddies really will win.

I would legitimately be heartbroken if the site had to end. I only found less than a year ago, but nowhere else have I been able to have such stimulating conversations and express my feelings. Yeah it sounds gay. But I genuinely love and appreciate this community, for all its good and bad. The research on here is truly amazing, I think most people don't realize. Kiwifarms is the last place I felt like I have free speech, even more so than in real life, which is kinda terrifying. People on here are more open minded to listen to my opinions than many of my libtard friends.

I am gonna miss this so much. Please stay in contact with me, I value so many of you shitposters, from bottom of my heart.

ETA: oh they just pass defense bill without deleting 230? Just kidding guys, I was only pretending to get emotional

So defame yourself and then sue the site. Wait until the law actually goes into effect though.

Did Congress of all fucking things actually just tell Trump to go fuck his own lame duck cuck self?

Defense bill released without Section 230 repeal, despite Trump's threats to veto

Republicans and Democrats in Congress have agreed to a version of an annual defense funding bill that does not include a repeal of Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act, which provides protections for social media companies like Facebook and Twitter to moderate their content.

Yeah, see.
Now all we have to do is see if he vetoes it, which will take maybe until Monday, unless he's willing to work fast literally today. Either way, a response to his veto, even if it is today will take at least til next Thursday. Which would be the 10th. The House goes on recess on the 11th. Which means a bill will most likely not be passed again. And if it becomes a senate-issue bill, they have until the 18th.

Once the 18th hits, barring them pushing back the recess, It's pretty much over.
If I were to wager it, my bet is on them saying "Okay, we'll wait until January 21st to resubmit this bill. Happy Holidays Mr. Trump!" if he vetoes it.

And they can always do that Stupid Congress Trick of just passing a continuing resolution too. Which they already did for the general spending bill.

Exactly, I think shit will be fine. Even a decent amount of republicans are saying no to this thing.

Chances are high he never had any intention of using the veto. There was probsbly another issue with the intended bill.

He's going to veto it. The question is do they have the 2/3rd majority to overrule it?
