Access to Ohio GOP Senate candidate Matt Dolan’s op-ed on the Israel war is limited by X.
X Restricts Access to Ohio GOP Senate Candidate’s Post Defending Israel
X, the social media platform previously known as Twitter, has taken action against Ohio GOP Senate candidate Matt Dolan after he shared an op-ed defending Israel’s right to protect its citizens from attacks by the Hamas militant group.
Shortly after Dolan posted the op-ed link, X limited the visibility of his post, preventing users from reposting or liking it. In response, Dolan’s campaign team filed an appeal, denouncing the restriction as ”outrageous” and demanding that the post be made accessible to the public.
Standing with Israel
Dolan passionately expressed his support for Israel, stating, “Israel is in a fight for its very existence. This is a defining moment to stand with our closest ally and speak truth.” He condemned Hamas for using innocent civilians as shields and emphasized that Israel has the right to defend itself against its enemies.
The X post has been labeled with a “Visibility Limited” tag, citing potential violation of X’s rules against violent speech. The duration of the post’s review is unknown, and X has yet to respond to inquiries from the Washington Examiner.
Dolan’s Senate campaign in Ohio is crucial, as he competes against other Republican candidates to challenge incumbent Sen. Sherrod Brown (D-OH) in the 2024 cycle. The outcome of this race could significantly impact which party gains control of the upper chamber.
