(RepublicanPress.org) – Twitter continues interfering with conservatives using its site. The social media giant allegedly deletes posts, throttles their reach, suspends accounts, and posts warning labels in an apparent effort to force their ideological leanings on its users.
Twitter went after conservative writer, speaker, and The Daily Wire contributor Matt Walsh for posting information on its platform, pointing out suspicious vote counts in Michigan. Twitter posted a warning on his November 4 tweet. (Here’s a screenshot of the now-deleted tweet he referenced, be aware it contains foul language.)
This is reason enough to go to court. No honest person can look at this and say it's normal and unconcerning. https://t.co/CguBRGCRLD

Twitter did the same thing to President Donald Trump, posting a warning on several of his tweets in the wake of the presidential election.
Ironically, it appears Walsh and The Daily Wire may have gotten the last laugh. Walsh managed to boost his follower count past the 500K mark due to information about the censorship act going viral.
Well, Twitter's censorship has pushed me towards half a million followers. Thanks Jack!

The internet works in mysterious ways. It’s great to see Walsh and the website profiting from Twitter’s denial of free speech to its users.
