“After close review of recent Tweets from the @realDonaldTrump account and the context around them we have permanently suspended the account due to the risk of further incitement of violence,” – Twitter
On Friday, Twitter “permanently suspended” Donald Trump’s account citing “the risk of further incitement of violence.”
Trump’s account, which has 88 million followers, was initially banned for 12 hours on Wednesday due to “severe violations of our Civic Integrity policy,” after he used the platform to condemn Vice President Mike Pence as his supporters stormed the Capitol. [https://nbcnews.to/3bj5rGJ]
The news of Trump’s ban came across the wire during Friday’s airing of #RolandMartinUnfiltered as Roland and Rep. Maxine Water’s discussed the deadly Capitol insurrection.
Water’s reacted to the breaking news saying, “Wow”.
She added, “I understand what racism is all about and I understand what systemic racism is and why at every juncture we are at a disadvantage … It is really up to white people to determine whether or not they are going to change their ways; whether or not they’re going to use their power and influence to change.”
Waters continued, “It is up to white people to determine whether or not they are ready and willing to and that they have responsibility to help change what is going on in America.”
