So, you don't think the FBI should have warned social media companies about apparent Russian dirty tricks trying to influence our elections as they did in 2016? Bill Barr's (and Trump's own) DOJ disagreed with you as did every Republican member of the Federal Elections Commission. Take it up with them.

• Twitter acted lawfully when it restricted the distribution of a New York Post article with unverified claims about President Joe Biden’s son, Hunter.
  
• The agency found that Twitter had made a valid decision based on commercial reasons.

Meanwhile, after reviewing all of Twitter's internal files, Matt Taibbi posted "22. Although several sources recalled hearing about a “general” warning from federal law enforcement that summer about possible foreign hacks, there’s no evidence - that I've seen - of any government involvement in the laptop story."

Also, Twitter didn't "punish" anybody. It's remarkable the fact-free nonsense you keep breathlessly spewing. I guess you and your party has nothing better to do that to concoct reasons why Dear Leader lost in 2020. First, it was thousands of dead people voting. Then it was fake Chinese ballots. Then it was Italian satellites and smart thermostats deleting votes. Then it was Dominion Voting Systems and Smartmatic. Now it's Twitter fault. Really fucking pathetic.
