Donald Trump Jr.'s Twitter account has been suspended after he shared a video which included misleading and false claims about the coronavirus pandemic, his spokesperson confirmed to CBS News.

The video alleged that Dr. Anthony Fauci, the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, had "suppressed" the use of hydroxychloroquine to treat the coronavirus. Mr. Trump has touted the drug as a treatment for coronavirus, even though the Food and Drug Administration determined in June that the drug is "unlikely to be effective in treating COVID-19 for the authorized uses."

For a tweet I wrote on Joy Reid’s twitter saying that Bruce Levell guy got his butt kicked by Tiffany Cross and called him an Uncle Tom. ( I know, I know it was a bad thing to say) obviously someone needed vengeance for a tweet I did on Saturday and I am a nobody with maybe 5 followers. But I must struck a nerve. Hee Hee. I hope that Bruce guy saw it!
