Twitter is continuing down its destructive path of silencing conservative voices. The popular social media app has permanently banned Pillow EO Mike Lindell, an avid Trump supporter. The platform banned Lindell under the claim that he used his account to spread false and misleading claims about the 2020 election.

The New York Post reports:

Twitter said Tuesday that it permanently suspended Lindell — a staunch ally of former President Donald Trump — because of his “repeated violations” of the company’s civic integrity policy, which it implemented last fall to clamp down on misinformation.

Twitter didn’t say which of Lindell’s posts pushed it over the edge. But he had used his personal account and My Pillow’s corporate account in recent months to post and share bogus rumors about widespread election fraud that appeared aimed at undermining President Biden’s victory.

Lindell — who features prominently in My Pillow’s TV ads — has refused to walk back the claims even though they’ve been rejected by courts across the country.

Dominion Voting Systems has also threatened him with a lawsuit for falsely accusing the company of “stealing millions of votes.” Trump and his surrogates have also propagated bogus claims about Dominion’s voting machines.

This is the latest high-profile conservative to be booted from the platform. While Lindell’s account is now offline, his company page is still active.
