Source: – / Getty FINALLY, Twitter has taken action against the constant lies that Donald Trump pushes on Twitter daily.

Oh, and the fact that Trump also uses mail-in ballots to vote as well.

That w...
The White House has set its sights on a single Twitter employee after the company attached a fact-checking link to two of the president’s tweets containing lies and misinformation related to voter fraud.
