Trump.\u201d\u00a0An account called <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/DJTDesk\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">@DJTDesk \u201c<\/a> emerged on the social media site shortly after,\u201d The New York Post <a href=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/2021\/05\/06\/twitter-suspends-trumps-new-from-the-desk-account\/\">reported<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBy Wednesday evening, though, Twitter had suspended the account,\u201d the paper said.<\/p>\n<p>Team Trump said the new website is meant to serve as \u201ca place to speak freely and safely,\u201d but it would also give the former president a platform after losing both Twitter and Facebook.<\/p>\n<p>Twitter defended the suspension, with a spokesperson telling the Post, \u201cAs stated in our ban evasion policy, we\u2019ll take enforcement action on accounts whose apparent intent is to replace or promote content affiliated with a suspended account.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Last week, Twitter announced it has no plans to allow Trump to use its site. On Wednesday, Facebook\u2019s oversight board announced that Trump will remain suspended indefinitely. The board upheld Trump\u2019s ban from Facebook and Instagram, but added that it was \u201cnot appropriate\u201d for Facebook to impose the \u201cindeterminate and standard less penalty of indefinite suspension.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Board has upheld Facebook\u2019s decision on January 7, 2021, to restrict then-President Donald Trump\u2019s access to posting content on his Facebook page and Instagram account,\u201d the board announced Wednesday. But the board gave Facebook six months to review the \u201carbitrary\u201d ban, saying in a Twitter post that the company \u201cviolated its own rules.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, Twitter CFO Ned Segal said there have been \u201cno changes\u201d regarding Trump\u2019s status of being permanently suspended. \u201cWell, there has been no changes to anything we have shared in the past around the former president\u2019s account,\u201d Segal said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen you step back and think about our policies, we want to work hard to be consistent, to be transparent so people know exactly what to expect from us,\u201d Siegel added. \u201cWe don\u2019t have an oversight board like that. Our team is accountable for the decisions that we make.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The former Republican president was suspended from both platforms after the Capitol riot, after alleged Trump supporters breached the building and clashed with Capitol Police. Trump has since found a way around the two sites, sending out statements on issues that draw immediate coverage.<\/p>\n<p>The former president on Wednesday raged against the decision by the two social media giants, as well as Google.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhat Facebook, Twitter, and Google have done is a total disgrace and an embarrassment to our Country,\u201d Trump said in a statement. \u201cFree Speech has been taken away from the President of the United States because the Radical Left Lunatics are afraid of the truth, but the truth will come out anyway, bigger and stronger than ever before. The People of our Country will not stand for it! These corrupt social media companies must pay a political price, and must never again be allowed to destroy and decimate our Electoral Process.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFacebook cannot make up the rules as it goes, and anyone concerned about its power should be concerned about allowing this,\u201d the board said in a statement. \u201cHaving clear rules that apply to all users and Facebook is essential for ensuring the company treats users fairly.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><em>The Daily Wire is one of America\u2019s fastest-growing conservative media companies and counter-cultural outlets for news, opinion, and entertainment.
