Twitter’s decision to ban the president—all while Iran’s Ayatollah Khamenei, China’s propaganda arm, Venezuelan dictator Nicolás Maduro, & many others use the platform to amplify hate & violence—is wrong & further reinforces the urgent need to reform Section 230 exemptions. (1/2)

Platforms should never pick winners & losers. And while this is yet another troubling example of Conservative censorship, we must be clear that silencing any legitimate political debate is not the answer as we seek a path forward in a world hungry for objectivity & truth. (2/2)

None of those people attempted a coup on Wednesday

Twitter is a private company and, as such, can make its own rules. Come on Tim, you know that. The very people who are screaming about this were the loudest ones supporting private business in having the right to not serve the LGBT community. Can’t pick and choose

So, so, so disappointed that this is my representative.

I see you continue to speak on everything except for Trump encouraging his followers to attempt a coup. @LindseyGrahamSC saying Jim Crow era were the good ole days. And Trump again claiming birtherism against VP @KamalaHarris.

The crowd was calling for the hanging of Pence, people died, police injured and this is what you are worried about? Trump's twitter? May God save this country because Republicans won't.
Replying to @SenatorTimScott
Totally agree.
