FOX NEWS April 22, 2022: Former U.S. Secretary of State and failed presidential candidate Hillary Clinton was heavily rebuked after urging the European Union to pass legislation to stop the spread of "disinformation" and "extremism" online on Thursday evening.
Conservative Twitter users showed complete disdain for Clinton’s tweet on Friday, reminding her that she was part of the effort to tie former President Trump to the Russia Collusion "hoax". They also accused her of wanting to "control" speech and having a "totalitarian impulse."
Hillary tweeted, "For too long, tech platforms have amplified disinformation and extremism with no accountability. The EU is poised to do something about it."
"I urge our transatlantic allies to push the Digital Services Act across the finish line and bolster global democracy before it's too late," she added, speaking about a new law proposed by the European Union which will force Big Tech companies to better police illegal content posted online.
"The autocrats want to think for you. No thanks," American Greatness contributor Thaddeus McCotter replied.
The Federalist co-founder Sean Davis slammed the tweet with his own, saying, "You[sic] former campaign lawyer is under federal indictment for lying to the FBI about the Russiagate hoax that your campaign funded. Sit down."
