RUSH EXCERPT:

CLINTON: "Well, Michael, there are people who are championing it, but it‘s been a long and difficult road to get anything done actually, we can look at the state of California, the state of on New York. I think some other states have also taken action, but we need national action. And sadly, our Congress has been dysfunctional when it comes to addressing these threats to our children‘s. so you‘re absolutely right. This should be at the top of every legislative, political agenda. There should be a lot one of things done. We should be in my view, repealing something called Section 230, which gave platforms on the internet immunity because they were thought to be just pass pass-throughs that they shouldn‘t be judged for the content that is posted. But we now know that that was an overly simple view that if the platforms, whether it‘s Facebook or Twitter or x or Instagram, or TikTok, whatever they are, if they don‘t moderate and monitor the content we lose total control and it‘s not just the social and psychological effects it‘s real harm, it‘s child porn and threats of violence, things that are terribly dangerous.”
