As Trump wrote, "The People of our Country will not stand for it! These corrupt social media companies must pay a political price...."
Proving their irrelevance, proving their weakness, Facebook's Oversight Board voted yesterday morning that:
Facebook was justified in banning then-President Donald Trump from its platform the day after the Jan. 6 riot at the U.S. Capitol, but it needs to reassess how long the ban will remain in effect, the social network’s quasi-independent Oversight Board said Wednesday.
Is Donald Trump (R) worried "how long the ban will remain in effect"? Hmmmm. Understanding that in so many ways Facebook is so last decade and so many alternatives exist, Trump quickly responded on his new platform, in his old blunt prose.

What Facebook, Twitter, and Google have done is a total disgrace and an embarrassment to our Country. Free Speech has been taken away from the President of the United States because the Radical Left Lunatics are afraid of the truth, but the truth will come out anyway, bigger and stronger than ever before. The People of our Country will not stand for it! These corrupt social media companies must pay a political price, and must never again be allowed to destroy and decimate our Electoral Process.
Other Republicans also eagerly pounced on the Oversight Board's decision. Quickly capitalizing on this flagrant example of Democratic suppression of diverse, pluralistic and multi-cultural voices, of Democrats’ inability to be inclusive, the National Republican Senatorial Committee (NRSC), the National Republican Congressional Committee (NRCC) and Republican candidates for local and national office immediately shot out fundraising solicitation email appeals to support their (re)election campaigns, warning of potential future attempts to silence the diverse, pluralistic and multi-cultural Republican voices.

These media companies will be enthusiastic about China-style censorship and brainwashing.
They will let him back on and the first post he makes they will suspend him again. I don’t get on FB any more. Haven’t for years. I wish there was another platform that worked much like FB that was as fast and stable. Then a huge number of people would leave and FB would lose money. I know a lot of people that support Trump on this but stay in contact with family and friends still using it.
Maybe its time the former President speak up about the injustices as a result of the 1/6 demonstration. How Ashlee Babbitt was murdered in cold blood, how many folks are being held without bail on trumped up charges, how white demonstrators being held are being beaten by black jail guards.
do you have a source for your third point? Beaten by black jail guards?
“Maybe its time the former President speak up about the injustices as a result of the 1/6 demonstration.”
Well past time for him and many others to speak up about it. There are even reports of extended solitary confinement and other torture.
They actually have to pay more than a political price. They need to be hanged. Or shot. Hanged is better.
Well....there's always FreeRepublic!
Everyone send him emails to come here and support/protect the website. Of course there would be painful explosive growing pains, but....
Would be great. Politicians could come here and get great ideas together we could solve the worlds problems.
What happened to Parler? It’s gone and I can’t get it to come up. I keep getting 404 error. Anyone know?? Thanks.

Pubbies are at their rhetorical best when can’t do anything.
Its been reported in several sources. They were beaten because they were portrayed as white supremacists.
