Twitter just buried a White House tweet too

Dear Palmer Report readers, we all understand the difficult era we're heading into. Major media outlets are caving to Trump already. Even the internet itself and publishing platforms may be at risk. But Palmer Report is nonetheless going to lead the fight. We're funding our 2025 operating expenses now, so we can keep publishing no matter what happens. I'm asking you to contribute if you can, because the stakes are just so high. You can donate here.

Late last night, Donald Trump posted a tweet calling for the National Guard to shoot protesters in Minnesota. After a few hours of massive backlash, Twitter decided to hide Trump’s tweet from the timeline, replacing it with a warning label about “glorifying violence” instead, marking the most severe action that Twitter has taken against Trump to date.

This morning Trump decided to test the limits of Twitter’s willingness to crack down on him. He posted the same message about shooting people to the official White House account on Twitter. But sure enough, Twitter also hid that tweet, replacing it with the same warning label about glorifying violence.

It’s clear that Twitter is done messing around with Donald Trump’s antics. He’s holding a press conference at 2pm eastern time today, during which we expect he’ll do a lot of whining and complaining, while making empty threats against Twitter. But at this point we don’t expect Twitter to back down.
