The Federal Communications Commission and Federal Trade Commission have pushed back against US President Trump's proposal to put them in charge of policing social media firms he claims are biased against right-wingers.

The draft executive order, titled "Protecting Americans from Online Censorship", aims to restrict the ability of platforms to remove content and give the FCC a far larger role in policing content. The FTC would then be empowered to sue companies over their regulation and editorial policies.
