Fifth ‘Twitter files’ release details furious debate to ban Trump — despite no policy violations

The fifth installment in the bombshell “Twitter Files” revealed Monday that staffers and top executives alike inside the social media giant pushed for former President Donald Trump to be barred following last year’s Capitol riot — despite monitors initially finding no policy violations in the former president’s tweets.

Trump, now 76, was banned from Twitter on Jan. 8, 2021, two days after a mob of his supporters breached the Capitol building and interrupted the certification of Joe Biden’s 2020 election victory.

According to journalist Bari Weiss, Trump tweeted twice on the morning of the 8th — once to praise those who supported him at the ballot box.
