Gaslight Social is having conniptions...

How's that Civil War coming along?

The irony is rich: Truth Social, Donald Trump’s Twitter copycat claiming it is “free from political discrimination,” has reportedly banned users who posted information from Thursday’s congressional hearing on the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol — in which the former president is a key focus.

...




“Seeing a lot of folks getting banned from Trump’s Truth Social for posting updates about the January 6 Committee hearings,” Max Burns, communications director for New York State Assemblywoman Yuh-Line Niou, tweeted Friday. “Apparently free speech has its limits even in Trumpland.”

Also Friday morning, another Twitter user reported, “Just put out my first post on Truth social and they deleted it. Real freedom of speech champs there.”

In the Apple iOS store, when you look at the (un)Truth Social screenshots --

under "Custom Profile," Mr Bob Jones lists his website as " joneworks[dot]studio "...

I had thought about membering up at the place hoping to take some jabs at Trump. Guess he only deals in alternative truth.

Donald Trump believes in free speech as much as he believes in law & order. Different rules for him, always.
