Twitter suspends Trump campaign account for reportedly referencing NY Post Article

Published

Twitter has reportedly suspended the Trump Campaign’s official Twitter account for a video referencing the bombshell New York Post report alleging Joe Biden’s son Hunter leveraged his father’s position as vice president in his foreign business dealings.

“Twitter has suspended @TeamTrump for posting a video calling Joe Biden a liar who has been ripping off our country for years, as it relates to the @nypost article. 19 days out from the election,” said the Campaign’s Mike Hahn on Twitter Thursday.

According to the Campaign, Twitter flagged the post for violating the platform’s “rules against posting private information.”

On Wednesday, shortly after the Post broke the story, Twitter and Facebook began censoring anyone who shared the article. Moreover, Twitter suspended many accounts sharing the story, including White House Press Secretary Kayleigh McEnany’s personal Twitter.

The Post’s report included emails in which Hunter Biden allegedly connected people at Ukrainian gas company Burisma Holdings, where he was a board member, to his father when he was vice president.

Elon Musk Fact Checks Biden’s Old Tweet ‘No one is above the law’

In a clever reaction to President Joe Biden pardoning his son, Hunter, fact-checkers on Elon Musk’s X are flagging Biden’s old post stating “no one is above the law.” Biden’s old post, shared in May, was written as an attack on now-President-elect Donald Trump, but the tables have turned on Biden as he is being heavily criticized for his hypocrisy in placing his son “above the law.”

The New York Post reports:

“It now has a community warning readers: ‘President Joe Biden pardoned his son, Hunter Biden, for crimes covering nearly 11 years of ‘offenses against the United States which he has committed or may have committed or taken part in during the period from January 1, 2014 through December 1, 2024.”

After that, Musk added his own proposed note calling out the president, writing: “By pardoning his son Hunter, not merely for a single crime, but for actual or potential crimes he may or may not have created over an eleven-year period, Joe Biden has made clear that some people are, in fact, above the law.”

According to the New York Post, “Hunter Biden, 54, pleaded guilty in September to nine counts tied to bilking Americans of $.1.4 million in taxes and was found guilty of three federal gun charges in June after he was charged with possession of a firearm while addicted to illegal drugs.”

Biden is not only being criticized for pardoning his Hunter, but for going back on his vow that he would not pardon his son. Biden argued in his defense that Hunter was “singled out only because he is my son,” The Post reports. Biden is hitting back saying that critics are only trying to break Hunter’s sobriety.

Musk shared a screenshot on X of his own fact-check with a statement saying “Community Notes slays.” Community Notes is a feature on X that allows users to flag false or misleading content, according to The Post, leaving the fact-checking up to its users rather than staffers.
