Talking Of Closed Accounts...
I see loads of people were chucked off Twitter yesterday for retweeting Hunter Biden's tweets. (Where he threw Joe under the bus)
Poor old Joe. Can't choose your family, can you.

Turns out he made it up, it was true, he has been suspended by C SPAN the network company that employed him. Trump was proven right again. Trump refusing to be intimidated was headlines for days but this is shuffled of stage with a few murmurs. Haha. As the deadline nears they are panicking again.
It’s really a case of biter bit.
There is so little trust now in what gets tweeted and retweeter that it’s hardly surprising that some are cautious.
The story in question came from Trump’s lawyer Giuliani, who’s close to dubious Ukrainian lawman Andriy Derkach, already under sanction for interference in the US election. So hardly surprising people are twitchy.
Social media can be bad for a lot of things ...

Except that is totally false and a misrepresentation of the facts.
- No one was reoved from Twitter, the link to the NYP was just blocked.
- Hunter Biden did not send Tweets, the NYP reproduced emails sent 4 years ago.
- The emails were hacked from a computer (illegally). Twitter blocked retweets because the emails contained personal information.

This is getting bigger as the day rolls on. "Big tech monopolies donate massive money to Biden/Harris. Biden gets the monopolies to censor negative stories about him, and then points to the monopolies as experts,” said Sen. Josh Hawley. “Talk about collusion.”
//Twitter’s censorship of the New York Post led Senate Judiciary Committee Republicans such as Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) to subpoena Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey.
“Twitter is actively blocking — right now, this instant — stories from the New York Post alleging corruption and the Biden family receiving millions of dollars from communist China,” Cruz told reporters during a break on the final day of the Supreme Court nomination hearings for Judge Amy Coney Barrett.
“This is election interference, and we are 19 days out from an election. It has no precedent in the history of democracy. The Senate Judiciary Committee wants to know what the hell is going on,” he added.//

Really? How about this one.
//Twitter locked the account of @TeamTrump, an official Trump campaign account, citing the same policy it used to ban links to the New York Post’s bombshell story on hitherto unrevealed links between Joe Biden and the Ukrainian gas giant Burisma.
Mike Hahn, a social media manager for Team Trump, revealed the censorship in a tweet earlier today.
“Twitter has suspended TeamTrump for posting a video calling Joe Biden a liar who has been ripping off our country for years, as it relates to the @nypost article” said Hahn. He added the suspension comes “19 days out from the election.”//
