So what happens on the War on Twitter is the Russian Bots & Covidiots gang up on a tweet that is derogatory & each submit a “Report”

Twitter’s algorithm Automatically suspends an account for x number of “reports”

I was suspended for this tweet. Also all my followers were erased to 0

The EU posts it’s own EUCDC report which is nice to know because the f’ing nutcases running our country Lie.

Bleach (Disinfectant) inside the body was his idea, not yours. They should've suspended him for even suggesting it...whether he put it on Twitter or not!

And this time throw the book at him...use every charge there is. The people, the REAL patriots will be with you.

The threat to have swing state legislators appoint Trump electors despite who was the popular vote is the red line that we cannot allow Trumpters to cross.

This is fucking it!

Was it Schiff who read the charges the first time? There were 3 of them I think it was?

How long would it take to read, say, 146 charges?

Spending 2 hours just reading them would cause quite a sensation.

How long is the suspension?

I've been suspended 3 or 4 times. Once was for 7 days and the countdown didn't start until after I deleted my "offensive" tweet.

for me, anyway. I mean, don't talk much.

But on twitter, all I do, is tell tRump* off! Guess, I am a troll there. In creative ways, without cursing, and very bluntly. Mostly on his personal being. As he is very vain.

And I will stay on twitter until he is out of office and Our House.

This little old twitter lady would like to know. There was a big across the board purge today. People seem to think it is a purge of bots and others.
