Twitter seems to have suspended Donald Trump’s account.
Trump is permanently suspended from Twitter.
This is huge. A megaphone that reached up to 88 million people is SILENCED.
Can anyone in Manhattan confirm that people are on their balconies cheering?
AMAZING.

In new video, Donald Trump condemns the rioters at the U.S. Capitol: "You do not represent our country.”

Only a day before he said about these same people: “We love you; you’re very special.”

(Not linking to his new tweet.)
In the video, Trump says he’s now turning to the “smooth orderly and seamless transition of power.” But he still refuses to congratulate Joe Biden or even recognize him as the President-Elect.
Related: Trump’s Twitter access has been restored.

At his rally earlier in the day, Donald Trump repeated his declaration that the media is the “enemy of the people.” Cause and effect.
"Be There. Will Be Wild!”

Fact check: True

Trump has spent weeks promoting this event; right-wing allies amplified the message and vowed to use force; yet the Capitol Police were still woefully unprepared.

nytimes.com/2021/01/06/us/…
|@LindseyGrahamSC spent the past 4 years aiding and abetting Donald Trump, but last night he said “enough is enough” and “count me out” of effort to overturn the vote.

He also said, "Trump and I, we had a hell of a journey."
