Trump tears into Twitter claiming it makes up 'false trends' and demanding section 230 be repealed before #DiaperDon goes viral on the site

President Trump continued to spend his Thanksgiving holiday lashing out at his enemies - this time by accusing Twitter of fabricating its trending topics as social media users ridiculed him by clicking on the hashtag #DiaperDon. The president retweeted and wrote a total of 14 tweets on Thursday, including several just hours after he grew visibly angry with a Reuters reporter during a question-and-answer session at the White House. Trump was busy on Twitter retweeting his favorite commentators who falsely suggested there’s still a chance he can overturn the results of the election while venting his frustration at the media, Alexandria-Ocasio Cortez, kneeling NFL players, and Fox News.  He lamented that Fox News has not been the same since the departure of its late CEO Roger Ailes while also calling for the repeal of Section 230, a part of a law that shields internet companies from liability for the content that its users post.  When he wasn't tweeting, Trump held a news conference d

Disgraced Theranos founder Elizabeth Holmes led company 'f*** you chants' about competitors and a Wall St Journal reporter who criticized her during meetings - but her lawyers say it was 'normal behavior'

Theranos founder Elizabeth Holmes led profane chants during company meetings that poked fun at her competitors and a Wall Street Journal reporter which her attorneys have classified as 'normal behavior'.  The disgraced founder is currently awaiting trial on fraud charges for lying about the capabilities of her blood-testing product.  She and the company's former president, Sunny Balwani, are due to go on trial in San Jose, California in March. She is denying the charges but faces 20 years in prison if convicted.  In a pre-trial court filing on Wednesday, prosecutors said that she would often berate competitors by chanting about them during company meetings.  They want to ask witnesses about the chants, specifically one against competing company Sonora Quest.  Elizabeth Holmes pictured in July in court in San Jose, California . She is said to have led company chants against competitors and WSJ reporter John Carreyrou, who wrote a series of articles criticizing Holmes  'M

Maradona's ex-girlfriend turned away from joining legend's state wake with family and told to wait on line with fans who camped out to pay their respects

Diego Maradona's ex-girlfriend was unceremoniously turned away from entering the presidential mansion Thursday before dawn under orders from the Argentine soccer legend's former wife. Rocio Oliva arrived at Casa Rosada at 4:40am in hopes of saying farewell to Maradona, whose casket is lying in state, and was immediately informed by a security guard behind the gate that she was not allowed to enter the grounds. A teary-eyed Oliva's pleas to be permitted inside went unheard and she was instructed to return at 7am and wait online with tens of thousands of fans who had waited overnight to pay their last respects. 'I can not come at seven in the morning. That is crazy, that is crazy,' Oliva said on live television. 'You can not do this. I can not come. He wants me to come back at seven in the morning with all of the people.'  Oliva and Maradona dated for six and a half years before terminating their relationship in 2018.  Rocio Oliva , who dated Diego Maradona fo

Top restaurateur Richard Caring savages 'inexperienced' government as he warns that 35% of the hospitality industry 'will never return' after being decimated by repeated lockdowns

One of Britain's top restaurateurs has savaged the government's severe new tier system as a death sentence for the hospitality sector. Richard Caring, who owns chains including The Ivy and Bill's, believes that more than two thirds of his industry has been so mauled by lockdowns that it will never recover. Mr Caring told MailOnline: 'This government bounces off one wall onto another, its inexperience and inefficiencies are shown clearly in the manner they have handled this awful pandemic so far.  'It has turned both its inexperience and inefficiency against the hospitality industry of this country. 'Already what was the second largest industry in this country has been permanently decimated by at least 35%, never to return.'  Boris Johnson imposed brutal Tier 2 and 3 rules on 99% of England on Thursday, the higher category bans all hospitality business, while the other permits pubs to stay open only if they serve food.  Richard Caring, owner of restaurant cha
