Roger Stone Comes Back to Twitter, Is Immediately Re-Banned

[Jilly_in_VA]

After Elon Musk purchased Twitter for $44 billion, veteran GOP operative Roger Stone thought he was safe to return to the platform after being permanently banned in 2017.

But his homecoming didn’t last long, as the longtime ally of ex-president Donald Trump was re-banned within hours of creating his new account.

“Well bitches I’m back on Twitter,” Stone bragged on Telegram early Thursday morning. “I’m anxious to see how strong Elon Musk’s commitment to free speech is.”

After the new account, @RogerStoneUSA, was connected to the self-described “dirty trickster,” he was banned within minutes—again.

1. I really want to see that fucker die in prison - nt

[Brother Buzz]

2. I want him to live long enough to get some cool prison ink

[Traildogbob]

12. Haaaaaa!

The funniest damn thing I have seen in years. Especially the placement of trumps Anus shaped lips. And those tat lips will produce the exact content of the real Trump facial anus hole. Bother but shit and varied noises, smelly noises.

[beaglelover]

26. That's hilarious!

[lastlib]

31. This is why I've referred to TFG as "AnusMouth."

They're interchangeable, and the same stuff comes out of both.

[Hoyt]

3. I think his conspiring with Proud Boyz, Oathkeepers, etc., will seal his fate. Hope so.

[SergeStorms]

17. Not with Musk.

They all deserve to be heard, according to Musk. There are no limits on free speech, according to him.

We'll see how long that lasts when his Twitter becomes a festering cesspool of shit. Right now it's merely a waste treatment plant.

[Wounded Bear]

18. That's a very libertarian point of view...

[2Gingersnaps]

27. That's it in a nutshell,

All the privileges of a civilized society, no personal responsibility, no consequences. Peter Pan for life!

[Hoyt]

21. That's a different matter. Don't think Musk is a Stone fan, but might as well accuse him of such.

[SergeStorms]

40. You haven't been reading....

Musk's opinions of right-wingnuts lately, I take it? Twitter has been so unkind to them all, and there's absolutely no reason to censor anything they've said.

Maybe you haven't noticed, but Musk has taken a hard right turn lately. He is not our friend.

[Hoyt]

41. Should be easy to provide a citation? Thanks.

[groundloop]

42. Should be easy to look up.

[Hoyt]

43. Thanks for the lack of response. You know there is no evidence supporting

your post.

Here is a photo of Musk with Obama, maybe you can find one supporting your position:

?itok=sYw0jd91

[SergeStorms]

49. That was a long time ago.....

in Musk years. He's extremely mercurial, but maybe you haven't noticed that either.

[Lunabell]

45. Oh please

Do your own homework.

[Hoyt]

46. Sorry, no citations for Musk and Stone. Did find Musk maxed out donations to Obama.

Your turn.

[Lunabell]

47. Not gonna play your stupid one-upmanship game.

Be his cheerleader, I don't care. But do your own leg work. It's plain as day and if you can't see it, that's on you.

Changed my mind. Next time do your own leg work.

[Hoyt]

59. Did you look up the reason he said it, Canada was cracking down on protests. He deleted it latter,

realizing it was wrong.


"Prime Minister Trudeau on Monday invoked Canada's Emergencies Act for the first time in a bid to put an end to the protests, which paralyzed the national capital Ottawa and cost the country hundreds of millions in trade daily. The temporary, sweeping rules give Canadian authorities like police and financial institutions greater power to crack down on protesters by doling out fines and criminal charges and freezing assets.

"Canadian authorities have been particularly tough on freezing accounts and funds linked to the “freedom” protesters. On Wednesday, the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) ordered all FINTRAC-regulated cryptocurrency exchanges to immediately stop transacting with 34 crypto wallets associated with the protesters. Most Canadian crypto exchanges are regulated by FINTRAC, the national financial intelligence agency. Canadian financial institutions were also caught off guard by the new rules. On Tuesday evening, Canada ordered all banks, insurance and loan providers, investment and credit firms, and fundraising platforms to freeze the accounts of customers who are “illegal” protesters or have provided funds to the same.

Last month, Musk also wrote on Twitter, "If [the] Canadian government is suppressing peaceful protests, that’s where fascism lies."

Gotta a good laugh out of the, "I'm not gonna play your game," then you play the "game."

[SergeStorms]

48. Here's Muskboy yesterday.......

One of Musk’s complaints has been that Twitter has engaged in campaigns of censorship — particularly against former President Donald Trump.

"I strongly supported Obama for President, but today’s Democratic Party has been hijacked by extremists".

https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/elon-musk-e2-80-98democratic-party-has-been-hijacked-by-extremists-e2-80-99/ar-AAWIAnw?ocid=uxbndlbing

[Hoyt]

57. Plenty of Democrats feel the same way at times.

[Lunabell]

61. Who?

Manchin or Sinema?

[SergeStorms]

63. You're a Musk apoligist....

and nothing we say is going to change your mind about him.

Sort of reminds me of the way republicans feel about the Big Orange Pig. He can do no wrong. Same way with Musk, huh?

[Hoyt]

64. Kind of the way opinions are, Serge. If Musk gets rid of bots, it'll be worth it.

But you’ll still be griping.

[SergeStorms]

65. Even when he....

allows Trump and his ilk to spread their lies, hate, and disinformation in the name of "freedom of speech"?

No, I won't be "tweeting" with the reich-wing sewage merchants, but you do you.

[Hoyt]

66. Serge, have you ever noticed the little white boxes under cruddy tweets?

If you go into those boxes, you and millions of others can rebut the stupid MFer and the rubes who might worship trump.

Now, if Musk removes those rebuttal boxes, you’ll be right. But he won’t do that.

[SergeStorms]

67. Those tweets shouldn't be there at all.

That's the point you and Mr. Musk don't seem to grasp. Rebutting them does absolutely no good whatsoever. The cult looks at their tweets and their marching orders are there in black and white. They don't bother to read rebuttals.

The lies and propaganda shouldn't be covered under "free speech". Someone has to take a stand for truth, science, and factual information. Insisting that lies and propaganda are equally relevant to truth and science is insane.

I'm finished debating this point with you. Like I said before, you do you, and I can almost assure you our paths will never converge again. I'll take a pass on Mr. Musk's "social" platform.

No hard feelings, but we're at opposite ends of this spectrum and no amount of debate will bring us closer to each other.

Have a pleasant day.

[Hoyt]

69. I guess we are in a new era of democracy. We can say what we believe, but not those guys.

[SergeStorms]

70. Are we lying, distorting, and....

broadcasting vicious propaganda 24/7?

I know I'm not.

[Hoyt]

71. Problem is, they believe it for the most part. So, they get to speak in a democracy. We get to rebut

them too.

[EX500rider]

72. Yeah scary amount of authoritarian and free speech censorship shown here

“I disagree with what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it” is said to have come from Voltaire. It is not from Voltaire, the 18th-century philosopher, but it was a paraphrase from a biographer named Evelyn Beatrice Hall of what she thought Voltaire was thinking.
Unless it's something we don't agree with then CENSOR..lol

[Hoyt]

73. Seriously, I'm having a hard time dealing with some of this junk.

Don’t think it will play well long-term.

Probably, hard for you to believe with my feelings about gunz.

[EX500rider]

74. Hey I'm with you.

I'm not pro free speech unless it's something I don't agree with..lol
You either have free speech or you don't.

That's why the ACLU defends the Nazis right to march etc

Shutting down free speech you don't agree with turns out bad in the long run when the other side gets the power to do that to your side.

[Hoyt]

75. Exactly.

[SergeStorms]

76. So allow them to lie all they want...

allow them to tear our democracy to the ground, allow them to get people killed by spreading deadly lies about a deadly virus, allow them to goad people to violently attack the Capitol with the express purpose of overthrowing the will of the people....... yes, these people deserve to be censored and must be censored. And this "rebuttal" crap is senseless. They're not going to read your rebuttals because they're already overthrowing the government while you're writing your rebuttals!

You Musk defenders are in a league of your own.

Good evening.

[dixiegrrrrl]

35. Twitter is festooned with people showing that Musk has blocked them.

As in OUR kind of people.

[calimary]

22. Take a number.

The line’s pretty long already.

[Butterflylady]

39. No matter how hard I try not to think like that, I

Just can't help thinking the same thing. Roger Stone is epitome of evil. The devil on earth.

[atreides1]

56. No me

I just want to see him die...sooner rather then later...

[In It to Win It]

4. They wanna be back on Twitter sooo bad. It's pathetic 🤣

[Caliman73]

13. Seriously...

They decry the "liberal media" and "Hollywood" and "Big Tech" but they SO SO want to be part of all of that.

Hey Stone! I hear Truth Social is beating the shit out of Twitter on engagement. Why don't you just post your crap over there, where they don't practice "censorship"?

[Wounded Bear]

19. They like to count all of their bot likes and think they're popular...

[tanyev]

34. Yep. Nothing takes all the fun out of "owning the libs"

like hardly any libs ever noticing.

[FBaggins]

5. No surprise that he's an idiot - Musk only has a deal

He doesn't own Twitter yet (let alone have control over their banning decisions).

[Jilly_in_VA]

6. I was trying

to repost a tweet that suggests that Elon baby is seriously rethinking his deal after all, but I can't seem to paste the link

[FakeNoose]

7. Of course he's banned - somebody reported him in a heartbeat

What an idiot. Has he never heard of stealth? Sheesh!

[Initech]

8. That lasted about as long as Grandpa's entrance!

[dixiechiken1]

33. Holy shit, that's PERFECT!!!

[UTUSN]

9. HAH!1

[Blue Owl]

10. What a stupid fuck

[progressoid]

11. Is Musk's purchase still pending?

[Jilly_in_VA]

14. Yes

Apparently he's waffling, and the Twitter board is also thinking and talking about it.

[Aviation Pro]

16. Waffling or financing fell through

For such a so-called genius, he sure is a dumb fuck.

[Wounded Bear]

20. Actually there are problems with the Europeans and the Chinese...

The EU just passed regulations on social media, and the Chinese will likely no allow the platform at all.

The cuts the potential revenues a lot.

[GB_RN]

24. There's A Clause In There That He Can't Disparage Twitter Or Its Employees...

And he’s already violated it. If Twitter backs out, they owe him $1 billion, and vice-versa. Since Tesla’s stock has dropped because of this purchase deal, his Twitter rant was probably designed to piss off the Twitter people and get them to back out.

[2Gingersnaps]

28. If I sold EV's, I kind of think my 44 Bill would be better spent

on nationwide charging stations, certainly along every major highway. But what do I know? I'm not a billionaire. But then, I never reached the level of buying government and then bitching because it doesn't work while receiving the hand outs that guarantee my success-like charging ports for the cars I build.

[Aviation Pro]

15. 1/44th of a Scaramuci

Way to go, asshole.

[BumRushDaShow]

23. Saw the headline, recc'd the thread (didn't even need to read it until afterwards)

as I started to

Didn't even need to read it because not a dime has changed hands yet but an instant policy flip was assumed to have happened with just an "announcement of intent".

Q. Is he really that stupid?
A. Yes (or better, he's just an arrogant ass)

[Trueblue1968]

25. i hate him AND his ugly hooked nose.

[cstanleytech]

29. I guess no one ever explained to the moron that the 1st amendment only protects a persons

speech from the government but even that has limits as you can go to jail for things the government deems obscene.

[Laura PourMeADrink]

30. Oh here's hoping that Musk threw that bone out there

Being wishy washy about FG... To lure in the crazies and then ban them immediately

[RKP5637]

32. Looks like Twitter's asshole detector is working well! n/t

[Demobrat]

36. Musk doesn't own it yet.

We’ll see what happens when and if the deal closes. I suspect free speech will apply as long as nobody says anything he disagrees with. But I’m a cynic that way.

[Tickle]

37. sadly they seem to be having fun

on twitter. I think I'm going to deactivate

[summer_in_TX]

44. I'd hold off deactivating.

It takes a hell of a long time to build up connections to get your posts before many eyeballs. Not to mention Likes and Followers.

You can set up an account on an alternative social media site and spend a little time here and there to start building it up.

Besides, resisting the RW attempt to control the narrative can happen here. Harder on a little-known site.

Also, there's always the possibility that the Musk purchase is part of a psyop to elevate the voices of the RW and marginalize those of ours. With Michael Flynn out there, along with Army Reserve Colonel Phil Waldron, I wouldn't be surprised.

[COL Mustard]

52. I left it earlier this week

Didn’t do much on it anyway, but I don’t want to be associated with Musk at all. I doubt he’ll miss me.

[Tickle]

53. I'll miss you 😊 nt

[Takket]

38. media has said it will be at least months before the deal is finalized

and musk actually has any control over twitter.

[LetMyPeopleVote]

50. This makes me smile

Link to tweet

[COL Mustard]

51. Karma's a bitch

And so is Roger.

[TheBlackAdder]

54. I thought it would have been his Satanic Portal above the White House comment.

.

Apparently, The Ghost of Nixon has spoken Roger Stone again.



.

[Dark n Stormy Knight]

55. Pretty sure Musk has no control over Twitter polcies at this time.

Apparently Stone didn't consider that.

[dwayneb]

58. It's coming

Musk will give these guys free rein - just watch. Give him a year and Twitter will be hosting all of these sewer dwellers.

[Dark n Stormy Knight]

62. Yep. He's all about letting freedumb ring.

[fmdaddio]

60. Stone did this on purpose

He made a point to get kicked off so he could make a big deal about censorship.

[Emile]

68. Wouldn't surprise me! They love whining

about being picked on.
