Censor

When Elon Musk took control of Twitter it was revealed what many users already knew that some things and some people were being blocked. It exposed two ways that the government was censoring content. First and most common was to declare some news as misinformation and asking Twitter not to allow. The second was to declare a national emergency as was done with Covid and the government is allowed to censor. The authorities granted to the President by section 1702 of this title may only be exercised to deal with and unusual and extraordinary threat with respect to an national emergency. With respect to Acts of Congress authorizing the exercise, during the period of a national emergency, of any special or extraordinary power, the President is authorized to declare such national emergency. Such proclamation shall immediately be transmitted to the Congress and published in the Federal Register.
