    When the government try to cover up their dirty work and nobody stands for it, don't see how a country can be ran by people who are willing to uncover a twitter, yes, TWITTER USER just because they have said some bad words about a man who's been doing bad things since the day he got in power, I mean the UK sucks but at least our government are too scared to do that kinda shiz

      Glad Twitter is suing this anti-American Administration. The Republicans have demonstrated their clear contempt for the US Constitution ever since March of last year, and especially since Thursday afternoon.

      Republicans are no longer in any position to talk about the Constitution because they have been habitual violators of that document.

What trash by Twitter, which effectively acted on behalf of the DNC and banned trending Bernie supporters, suppressed mentions of Clinton/Rice wrongdoings, and most recently banned high profile conservatives. There's a reason Twitter is bleeding users and valuation.

          Twitter bias has directly lead to the rise of Voat and Gab.

            Twitter isn't really a father of the year when it comes to the first amendment so, they really aren't in any position to win.

A government official using this account is a violation of the Hatch Act because President Trump, within 24 hours of the Inauguration, signed the paperwork declaring himself a candidate for President in 2020.

              Therefore, you have a USG employee effectively using government money and resources to campaign against a political candidate, which is forbidden by Hatch Act rules.

              Twitter is going to lose here.

                Twitter is pretty much a contradictory to the first amendment, so this is palatably hypocritical of them.
