They said it was for McConnell's safety that they wanted the video removed They could have removed the video and not my tweet Keep in mind, Twitter allowed (#)MassacreMitch to trend on the platform for days and there are multiple tweets on this platform that list where he lives

McConnell, 77, fell and broke his shoulder. He sometimes has problems walking due to an issue w/his leg because he suffered from Polio as a kid One of the protesters shouted: He's in there nursing his little broken arm, he should have broken his little raggedy wrinkled ass neck"

The protester screamed: "F*ck yo neck, b*tch. Murder Turtle! Murder Turtle! ... F*ck yo thoughts and prayers ... F*ck you, f*ck yo wife, f*ck everything you stand for" Keep in mind, these are the same people who demand that law-abiding Americans give up their guns

I told Twitter that their logic did not make sense, that they wanted the tweet for McConnell's safety, because of many of the tweets they leave up and claim do not violate their rules I pointed out these tweets to Twitter as examples: https://twitter.com/rezaaslan/status/1158097042180231169 …pic.twitter.com/dqnWtLwQv9

By suspending me for telling the truth, Twitter is making it clear that they seek to control the news media and only allow content on their platform that does not expose the evil, projection, and hypocrisy of the political Left. Do not be surprised if they permanently ban me.

I get messages often from people saying they have to come to my account to see my tweets because they don't see them What matters is the fact that they are blatantly taking action against someone who refused to remove content that exposed Democrat activists
