Twitter permanently suspends President Trump

breaking tonight,just in the past minute twitter has,announced it is cutting off president,trump's ability,to post on the social media site,permanently,suspending the president's account at,realdonaldtrump,twitter saying after close review of,recent tweets from the president's,account,and the context around them we have,permanently suspended the account due to,the risk,of further incitement and violence in,context,of the horrific events this week we've,made it clear on wednesday that,additional violations of the twitter,rules would,potentially result in this very course,of action joining us again,from the north lawn of the white house,john roberts john obviously this,president has used twitter,throughout his presidency he has some 89,million followers and now,twitter permanently suspending his,account,yeah you know they cut it off for about,a day and a half bretton now they've cut,it off permanently and just to give you,a little more context as to,what's behind all of this twitter put,out a blog,detailing its decision and in that blog,twitter says the president trump's,statement,that he will not be attending the,inauguration is being received,by a number of his supporters is further,confirmation that the election was not,legitimate and is being seen as him,disavowing his previous claim via two,tweets,for an orderly transition on the 20th,the second tweet may also serve it says,here as encouragement,to those potentially considering violent,acts that the inauguration would be a,quote,safe target as he will not be attending,further the use of the words american,patriots,in earlier tweets to describe some of,his supporters is also being,interpreted as support for those,committing violent acts at the u.s,capitol and a tweet that he put out,earlier today,about his supporters having a giant,voice long into the future,and that they will not be disrespected,or treated unfairly in any way shape or,form,is being interpreted as further,indication that president trump,does not plan to facilitate an orderly,transition and instead that he plans to,continue,to support empower and shield those who,believe that he,won the election according to twitter,plans for future,armed protests have already begun,proliferating,on and off twitter including a proposed,secondary attack on the u.s capitol,and state capitol buildings on january,the 17th,so twitter is looking at all of this and,its calculation is that what the,president is saying,even by just saying that i'm not,attending uh the inauguration,is is is being seen as,code language to the president's,supporters that it's a safe target there,at the capitol,that that the election was not,legitimate despite the fact that the,president has called for an,orderly transition so because of this,incitement,to violence as twitter is is perceiving,it,uh they are permanently suspending the,president's account now he can still get,the message out through his digital,media director dan scavino,his facebook and instagram accounts have,also been blocked,this was the way that the president was,reaching out past the press,to get straight to his constituents so,we'll have to see how the president,reacts to all of this,uh brett it seemed that he reacted all,right,to the first suspension because he knew,it was only going to be temporary but,this permanent suspension now this may,draw something out of the president,we haven't seen so it is something to,see a company and they are a company,divine from those statements uh,what they divine in that blog readout,of what it truly means i mean we should,point out the president also,put out uh a video in which he denounced,the violence,pretty specifically in that speech which,came out,on twitter yeah and the president has,long railed against,big tech facebook twitter other other um,social media platforms uh which is why,he has been looking to repeal section,230,uh to that protects them from actions,regarding things that are either posted,or actions that they take,it protects them from legal action so,the president will probably,uh yell even louder and longer about,that whole thing but but you're right,brett that,you know the tweet about for those of,you who have been asking i'm not going,to go to the inauguration on the 20th,would seem to be innocent,on the surface but twitter was saying,when you look at the reaction to it and,the conversation that it's fomenting on,on twitter uh it they're perceiving it,as being,dangerous talk i'm not sure that that's,the interpretation,that you would draw from it but but,again they're taking all of this as a,whole,uh they've long had a problem with,president trump and what he puts on,twitter and it looks like that problem,has now come to a head,in a way that twitter which is a private,company can take unilateral action here,yeah and i think this is going to be a,major story not just from what happened,this week but,going forward about what it means about,the interaction of,government officials and social media,what divining

'This Is Off The Rails': Twitter Suspends Journalists Who Reported On Musk

later let's talk about Elon Musk and,Twitter the Twitter accounts of several,journalists who have been covering Elon,Musk are suspended this morning hours,after the accounts went offline musk,claimed in a tweet the journalists had,been involved in doxing his location and,placed his family in danger musk later,tweeted the suspensions would last for,seven days in other tweets he claimed,the journalists posted his exact,real-time location which he called,assassination coordinates no good and a,violation of Twitter's terms of services,NBC News was unable to verify the,allegation that his real-time location,was in fact posted online it's the same,justification he used on Wednesday for,suspending the account that used,publicly available information to post,the movements of musk's private jet all,of this goes against the promise musk,made to run the site as a free speech,absolutist which has led to the,reinstatement of hundreds of accounts,associated with Q Anon and other,far-right groups many of those accounts,promote conspiracy theories and hate,speech so Joe these are accounts he,claims doxed him this again the the,flight stuff is publicly available but,he shut down the accounts for at least a,week here,yeah and and and these people weren't,doxing him there were there were some,people that that had large followings on,Twitter who would write a negative,column about him on Mashable and then,they'd get get you know suspended or,would tweet something negative about him,and then get their accounts suspended,caddy K you know again it's it's it's,it's crazy isn't it that Donald Trump,Elon Musk both seemed to be losing it at,the same time and oh the bitter irony,for those people who shame to themselves,uh and and said oh we're going to look,through the Twitter files and we're,going to find examples of when content,was suppressed and they spent you know,weekend pouring through all of these,time well there was this one time when,they didn't amplify this or they didn't,amplify oh this is such a terrible first,amendment of course it's not a First,Amendment violation even suspending,these accounts if they suspend my,account it's not a First Amendment,violation it's it's called free,enterprise they can do with it what they,want to do with their company but all of,these people on the Trump right on the,far right that have been talking about,how horrible Twitter was and how it,violated free speech they come out and,they beat their chest in moral,indignation right before the owner of,Twitter just unilaterally decides he's,going to ban people who are saying,things about him that may be critical,yeah I mean I don't know whether being,told that you're the richest man in the,world day in day out somehow warps your,sense of your own invincibility but the,reality of his business decisions is,coming back to buy Elon Musk this is,certainly hurting him at Tesla it's,hurting him at Twitter too he's not,managing to make money he's losing money,from the site advertisers clearly don't,like what they're seeing on the side it,has to be just a question of time before,whether it's Mastodon or some other site,that actually operates in a more,grown-up responsible way takes over all,of the Twitter users I mean we will go,there Twitter is still I find it I don't,know about you I'm still on it I still,find it a useful tool for finding the,days it's the most efficient way for me,to catch up on the headlines as soon as,there is another platform that is just,as efficient I imagine you'll have a,mass migration to that platform and it's,question of the technology catching up,with it because a platform where day,after day it becomes about and this is,the parallel between Elon Musk and,Donald Trump their super wealthy,billionaire business people who like,used to things being about them and are,used to people saying that they are,wonderful and perfect and everything,they touch turns to Gold until it,doesn't until they actually realize the,limitations of their abilities and their,expertise and he is not a media platform,owner he's never done this he doesn't,know what he's doing and he's grinding,Twitter into the ground,well and and you know Jonathan Lemire,he's been told how brilliant he is for,the past 10 15 years we had renowned,guests on here,and I would say wait wait a second Elon,shouldn't jump,into Twitter does he not realize how,difficult this is are there no lawyers,around him trying to get him to stop,this are there no and it was like oh,Elon does what Elon wants to do Elon but,I said but doesn't he realize what a,mess this is and how it's going to,distract oh Elon and again these are,supposed to be some of the most vaunted,uh uh reporters in Silicon Valley their,answer to everything was oh it's Elon,Elon can do whatever Elon wants to do,elon's great we love Elon elon's one,this is what the toughest Silicon Valley,reporters,we're saying about Elon Musk right and,so,it's no wonder Elon Musk finds himself,where he is right now because,everybody's tol

Several Journalists Have Twitter Accounts Suspended

back to that big story developing,tonight Twitter suspending the accounts,of several journalists who cover the,platform and its new owner Elon Musk the,suspensions all happening abruptly in,the last couple of hours with us for,more Alex Stamos he's the former Chief,security officer at both Facebook and,Yahoo he's now a partner at the Krebs,Stamos group Alex we are lucky that you,are on with us tonight this seems really,scary okay these are reporters who,covered Elon Musk who have covered the,changes on Twitter since he took over,now he's claiming these suspensions are,taking place because these reporters put,him at risk potentially posting his,locations but there's not even evidence,any of them did that,that's right he's now suspending,reporters who have linked to people who,have posted the location of private,airplanes that are tracked by a open,network of people across the United,States,um including musk's private jet uh and,uh not the the people who run the,accounts themselves but just journalists,who have reported on that factor now,being banned you know as a chief,security officer I've had to work on,executive protection and it's true CEOs,of big companies have legitimate,security concerns they get lots of death,threats they always worry about their,kids but there's absolutely no evidence,that the accounts that we're posting the,movements of his jet and especially,these journalists did anything to put,his family at risk in fact the example,he brought up was a a run-in with,somebody in Los Angeles where people,figured out the exact location of that,video and it was absolutely nowhere near,an airport it had nothing to do with,this so this is pretty clearly just a,cover for him to start to make really,capricious decisions decisions about the,journalists he wants to be able to to,leave and to kind of throw an elbow at,all of media because you know as you,know the modern media is really kind of,addicted to Twitter both for getting,clicks and a lot of journalists spend a,lot of time there getting stories,finding sources and such and by,demonstrating that he can take them down,at any moment I think he's looking to to,intimidate the people who have given him,negative coverage given that this is,Elon musk's mindset at this moment How,concerned should we be earlier this week,they basically got rid of their trust,and Safety Council something you know a,whole lot about,right so you know for the last couple of,weeks musk has brought in uh independent,journalists uh to give them access to,documents about how Twitter made,controversial decisions in its past uh,including taking down the account of,President Trump after the January 6th,riots,he made a really big deal that the idea,that the the internal deliberations of,the company where lots of Executives,debated back and forth back and forth,should we do this what's the Free Speech,rights here what do our rules say that,that was a scandal and now you can see,what is the alternative to having a,bunch of smart people argue about a,difficult decision is that one guy can,just make the call in the middle of the,night and ban a bunch of people um and,this is what we're going to see in the,future of Twitter is that he has done,the opposite of what effectively every,other social media network has done,which is social media companies have,tried to create councils committees,external oversight boards mechanisms,that take these decisions out of the,hands of the CEO because in the end,those CEOs don't want this level of,responsibility where musk has done he,has spent 44 billion dollars to make,himself the most important decider of,who speaks in the planet and he's,advertised that out to the world,including to America's adversaries,countries like China that have,manipulated Twitter in the past and who,have lots of Leverage over him so I I,think there's the specific decision here,which I think he made a mistake,um and it really demonstrates the risk,to U.S journalists and people who might,disagree with Mustang on Twitter but I,think in the long run he's also putting,himself in a really difficult position,of trying to adjudicate speech when he,has economic interests all around around,the world including in autocratic States,like the People's Republic of China,enormous economic interests that's a,really important reminder for our,audience we didn't think Elon Musk was,going to like content moderation it,appears he loves it I want to turn to,Tick-Tock though the Senate has now,voted to ban the app on all federal,devices and there's some lawmakers out,there who want to go even further Hallie,Jackson has more on this,Tick Tock among the most visited sites,in the world used by an estimated,hundred million Americans every month,massively popular except maybe in,Washington I've been expressing concerns,about tick tock,for months on end the Senate now passing,a new gop-led bill that would keep,government devices from accessing Tick,Tock an app owned by a parent company,based in China this A

Twitter permanently suspends Trump

the president of the united states has,had his twitter account,permanently suspended this over concerns,his tweets could incite violence,laura mcquillen tracking the story for,us and joins us now so laura,a major move by twitter what's behind it,that's right john we haven't seen this,kind of action against donald trump in,the past despite many warnings despite,flagging his tweets or adding warnings,to them but now it appears that the,straw that broke the kimmel's back,after the president allegedly inciting,that mob on wednesday,was a couple more tweets yesterday where,he defended,his supporters its patriots said that,they will not be disrespected or treated,unfairly and his final tweet saying he,won't go to the inauguration,but you can't see those tweets anymore,because if you go to donald trump's,twitter account this morning,that's all you will see 88 million,followers now gone,twitter said those final tweets from him,appeared to indicate he doesn't plan to,facilitate an,orderly transition to joe biden and that,he is still,uh trying to claim that the election was,not legitimate so twitter,taken that action put out its own,statement in a tweet,in that it said that after close review,of recent tweets by,uh the real donald trump account and the,context around them they've permanently,suspended the account,due to the risk of further incitement of,violence,they say also that they won't allow him,to make a new account,and where he has tried to tweet through,other affiliated accounts,those have now been banned as well and,it's not just twitter we've seen,in recent days facebook and instagram,announced that he will have his account,locked for 12 days,over what happened on capitol hill and,his role in that,as well as action from the likes of,snapchat reddit youtube,all warning the president that his,accounts could be,you know banned permanently suspended as,well and therefore de-platforming him,at least in a digital sense john d,platforming okay,donald trump's supporters though not,happy with all of this,there are arguments being made about,free speech what can you tell us about,that yeah that's right they say that he,has been silenced by this,accusations by his defenders that big,tech is trying to control what people,think,one of those defending him his own son,donald trump jr who tweeted,this saying that dictatorial regimes can,have twitter accounts with no issue,despite threatening genocide killing,homosexuals but the president of the u.s,should be permanently suspended he says,at the bottom there mao would be proud,trump has long accused these big tech,companies of trying to censor,conservative voices but he has been,given so much leeway compared to the,average person,to share misinformation to amplify,conspiracy theories,so now the ball has dropped uh twitter,others taking action and it will affect,trump's ability to communicate going,forward this,is his preferred platform he's been able,to circumvent mainstream media and then,get the mainstream media to pick up his,tweets,and turn that into a news story we spoke,to one professor of history from,vanderbilt university about,that very point and here is what he had,to say,is very consequential i don't think,donald trump would be president without,twitter,twitter has been absolutely crucial to,his political um control of the,republican party to his,uh reach uh among americans it is a bit,like television was for,some of our earlier presidents like jfk,and even nixon at the time when,television was a important way to reach,the people over the heads of,of um of the media in other ways and and,so twitter was crucial for donald trump,and john don't expect donald trump to,just disappear because he did,share some more tweets last night which,were also taken down by twitter he,shared this through the official,president of the us,channel saying that he's thinking about,launching his own social media platform,that he's talking with various other,sites about,having a platform on them we'll have to,wait and see what he might launch,himself but keep in mind,this guy's going to be president for 11,more days he could just call a press,conference or put out a press release,just taking him off twitter doesn't,silence the guy he still has plenty of,platforms to communicate through,thanks to this laura

Elon Musk criticised over Twitter suspending journalists

now before completing his takeover of,Twitter in October Elon Musk described,himself as a free speech absolutist,today he's facing accusations of,hypocrisy after journalists had been,reporting on him had their accounts,suspended as did one of Twitter's main,rivals,he began by Banning Elon Jett an account,which posted the flight path of his,private plane,a month earlier Elon Musk had tweeted my,commitment to free speech extends even,to not Banning the account following my,plane but last night Twister's boss,reversed that saying criticizing me all,day long is totally fine but doxing a,word used to describe the posting of,personal information my real-time,location and endangering my family is,not along with the jet tracker a number,of reporters including those from The,New York Times and CNN had their,accounts suspended musk tweeting that,the same rules for doxing applied to,journalists although the journalists say,they were simply reporting on his,actions he later appeared on a Twitter,audio discussion justifying the,suspensions,there is not going to be any distinction,in the future between journalists about,journalists and and regular people,everyone's going to be treated the same,you'd actually get suspended in a story,trying to be clever about it like oh I,posted a link to the real-time,information that is obviously simply,trying to evade the the meaning there's,no different from actually showing,real-time information,but this wasn't good enough for the,European commission today it issued a,statement saying EU law protects media,freedom and Elon Musk should know there,are red lines and sanctions soon,what those sanctions amount to and what,Elon Musk makes of them is not yet clear,but his unilateral actions once again,Focus attention on what critics see as,his undue influence on social media and,free speech for now ever the publicist,musk has posted a poll asking whether,the journalists should be reinstated now,or see out their seven-day ban,well I've been speaking to Aaron Rupert,one of the journalists suspended from,Twitter and I asked him why he thought,he'd been accused of intending to harm,Elon Musk,uh I've never wanted to Assassin Elon,Musk,um nor did I even mean to track his,movements um anything of that sort I um,linked to a Facebook page which tracks,his private jet and noted that it still,existed even though the Twitter account,had been banned and when I posted that,tweet never in my wildest dreams that I,think I would,um,get in trouble for it or be banished for,it but you know I think we're seeing,that it's Elon musk's playground and if,he wants to kick people out of it that's,his prerogative yeah I mean and and he's,now got a poll up as to whether you,should get your account back in seven,days or straight away I think the poll,is going in your favor at the moment,um but it has a chilling effect doesn't,it uh in terms of what people are going,to say about Elon Musk and all his,businesses now,oh absolutely I mean I think that's part,of the goal and you know it's very,likely part of his goal to create that,chilling effect where you know beyond,linking to this Facebook page the one,commonality that myself and the other,journalists who are banned yesterday,have is that we've all been critical of,Elon Musk and the way that he is running,Twitter and so now you know as I'm,pondering possibly getting back on,Twitter,um I'd be lying to you if I didn't say,that that will be kind of in the back of,my mind,um that hey if you post this thing,critical of Elon Musk you might be,banned well there are right-wing,commentators and Elon Musk fans saying,well where were you when they banned,Donald Trump you know um is freedom of,speech only applicable to liberals,yeah well I think the important thing to,keep in mind is that violations of,freedom of speech here in the U.S just,have to do with government interference,in speech it really has nothing to do,with the operations of private,businesses so I would never portray,myself as being a victim of any sort of,free speech infringement I mean I will,point out the hypocrisy of Elon Musk,saying just weeks ago that his,commitment to freedom of speech as he,understands it extends to this Elon jet,account and you know clearly he has,changed his mind because his actions,directly contradict what he said on,Twitter publicly just a few weeks ago,but um you know I think obviously the,difference with Donald Trump was that he,was determined to violate the terms of,service because he had used the platform,to incite an Insurrection here in the,U.S and to try and overthrow an election,he clearly fears for his safety and the,safety of his family and and you did,link to an account that got around his,attempts to have privacy for the,location of his Jets,and and did reveal where it was,I don't think so because you know it's,just the effect of life that reporting,on the whereabouts of private jets is,something that has been just a part of,media reporting here for many many years,I mean you

Twitter permanently suspends Trump's account

as we've been reporting twitter has,permanently suspended president trump's,account,the social media giant cited the risk of,further incitement of violence as the,reason behind its decision,it also said it would suspend any new,personal accounts the president creates,to evade the ban,on friday twitter even removed posts,tweeted to the president's official,government account,which he rarely uses the move follows,wednesday's deadly assault on the u.s,capitol mr trump has been accused of,setting the violence in motion with,tweets,and his speech encouraging his,supporters to literally,march to the capitol for more on all of,this i'm joined now by cbsn technology,reporter,dan patterson dan good to have you with,us to get into the nitty-gritty of it,because,critics for years have called on twitter,to ban the president from its platform,why was the company hesitant to do so,before now,it's good to see elena so no social,media firm has been wanted,has wanted to be labeled a censor and,they all have feared at least,up until now that they would set a,dangerous precedent,but twitter kind of jumped into the,labeling or the restriction,of posts earlier than some of their,peers,last summer they moderated posts using,this,manipulated media tag on video,and photos that were misleading,or just untrue and this has,evolved for twitter and it's also,kind of helped spur other companies on,as well so there's been this,push-pull dynamic uh with a lot of,tension between well,are we sensors or uh,do we limit speech do we,uh try to inform our audience what role,do we play as editors,it's a really interesting dynamic at,play right now,well along those same lines dan,twitter's decision to ban the president,has reignited calls from some lawmakers,to repeal section 230,which protects social media companies,from being sued over content that its,users post,would a change to that regulation,prevent what we saw take place at the,capitol on wednesday,yeah woodland this is also really,fascinating so,uh if you changed altered or repealed,section 230 you kind of flip,uh what happened on its head now social,media firms,at least according to section 230 are,not,required to moderate every single post,on their site,look this was designed in an era before,the internet but according to the eff,the electronic frontier foundation this,is really a cornerstone,of the web as we have it now and again,according to the eff they say that,it allows social media firms to allow,their users to publish posts,and selectively edit the ones that they,think uh they,should be taken down now if you were to,get rid of section 230 it would,get rid of those uh freedoms and would,require,internet firms to moderate every single,post so it's,just not likely that we would see sites,like facebook twitter or other social,media,at all and as problematic as these sites,can be,i think it would be a very different,world if we didn't have the ability to,publish to,facebook twitter and other social media,sites,so interesting that president trump was,really pushing for the repeal of section,230 just as a can the literature,on this you couldn't even write all,right dan what impact will this ban,have on actually limiting mr trump's,influence,do you expect that to see him move to,alternative platforms like parlor or gab,which have,less strict rules and tell us a little,bit more about what's happening to those,platforms now,yeah so this will have a significant,impact on,the president's ability to amplify and,speak directly,instantly with his followers but it will,also have a,huge impact on something that we haven't,really talked a lot about and that's his,ability,to consume information of course twitter,is not just a publishing platform,it's a consumption platform and it's,algorithmic,so even though the president may have,only followed a few dozen accounts,um he was able to consume thousands of,posts,through lists and other content shared,by his followers,so not only did twitter limit the,president's ability to publish they also,altered his ability to receive,conspiracy theories,q and on and other uh kind of violent,extremist content,that is interesting now the second part,of your question that is interesting,yeah the president couldn't could move,to sites like,parlor or gab or other social networks,that use air quotes,uh free speech that which really they,just don't moderate content,um but that would be a challenge first,of all he wouldn't have the same,following look these sites are small for,a reason they don't have the scale,uh or or um technology that facebook or,twitter have those facebook and twitter,aren't just large sites,they're large sites that have invested,very deeply in their own technology,platforms,you can't just replicate that overnight,so yeah again the president could jump,to these other networks but these other,networks,aren't facebook for a reason,well we know that social media had an,oversized influence in distributing the,misinformation that led to the attack on,the
