So, first Trump (and that was fine, he incited Imminent Lawless Action with his words and was/is a continuing threat to doing just that for the foreseeable future.
But...the self and world recognized government Assembly of Venezuela?
This is wrong, very wrong. And it is only one of many such improper bannings.
It should not be up to Twitter who can use social media of it's kind...for which it has a virtual monopoly.
Though it troubles me to imagine the open and transparent public truth seeking process that could handle this properly, I see it is mostly not being done correctly now.
Trump, on the other hand, might well have been banned for earlier violence provoking remarks. They waited for the point there was absolutely no more question. If they could only be as fair in every other case.
The Guardian, VOA, PBS, and other sources describe the "Assembly Leader Juan Guaido" being blocked from entering the assembly on January 6, 2021. (It had been my understanding he had not ever been elected to such a position, and had only been spared arrest for treason for attacking the Venezuelan Assembly last year because of US pressure and influence.)
TheGreyZone published an interview on January 7, but it was an interview from last year, thus not useful for debunking the most recent story.
Frequently the sources of disinfo (like VOA) are ahead of the true story coming out. One has to wait for the debunking, when and if it comes out.
