Twitter is playing hardball now:

Twitter locks Trump's account for at least 12 hours

Twitter has announced that Donald Trump’s account will be locked for at least 12 hours, after the removal of three of the president’s tweets.

“As a result of the unprecedented and ongoing violent situation in Washington, D.C., we have required the removal of three @realDonaldTrump Tweets that were posted earlier today for repeated and severe violations of our Civic Integrity policy,” the Twitter Safety account said in a tweet thread.

“This means that the account of @realDonaldTrump will be locked for 12 hours following the removal of these Tweets. If the Tweets are not removed, the account will remain locked.”

The social media giant added, “Future violations of the Twitter Rules, including our Civic Integrity or Violent Threats policies, will result in permanent suspension of the @realDonaldTrump account.”

The White House has also already called a lid for tonight, meaning the president will not make any other public appearances today, so we won’t be hearing from him for the rest of the night.

I've had my Twitter account locked as well because I called a poster a fascist.

DC has their own guard under the command of the President.

Pence absolutely is not allowed to order them to do anything. He has no authority outside of chairing the Senate.

There is a DC National Guard too. Every state has one.

And they are only supposed to operate in State. They can't go across State lines without being invited. And Trump is the only person who can give that order for Washington DC.

I got a post ban for replying “Hello you c**t” to someone taking the piss out of Harvey Price.

Articles of impeachment have been drawn up. Hopefully the House reconvenes and gets on this.

Congressional leaders have already gone on holiday until after the inauguration. No chance they come back.

They will stall until enough people decide it is pointless to impeach because Trump will be gone soon,

I mean at any other time, yeah, but after yesterday’s shenanigans and 2 more weeks of a lunatic president; it might convince them to just hold off their staycation for a bit longer. Either that or the possibility of an impeachment might hurry up the process of invoking the 25th.

Things I've learned from reading conservative comments on social media today.

1. They were innocent
2. They were patriots
3. They were justified
4. They were Black LIves Matter
5. They were Antifa
6. They were Marxists

Seems the right don't have their story straightened out just yet.

It’s the BLM thugs that really piss me off.  Not so much for the rioting and destruction but I find the whitening up and cultural appropriation quite disgusting.  Redneck culture should not be mocked in this way.
