Accounts for Jones and Infowars were also banned from Twitter-owned Periscope.
Twitter has permanently banned the accounts of right-wing conspiracy theorist and radio host Alex Jones and InfoWars for violating the company's abusive behavior policies, the company said Thursday.
The ban appears to be related to a heated exchange between Jones and a CNN reporter Wednesday, which Jones live-streamed on the Twitter-owned video service Periscope. Jones ranted at the reporter, as well as Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey, following back-to-back congressional hearings where Dorsey addressed online election interference, as well as accusations of political bias and conservative censorship on the platform.
"We took this action based on new reports of Tweets and videos posted yesterday that violate our abusive behavior policy, in addition to the accounts' past violations," the company said in a series of tweets. "We wanted to be open about this action given the broad interest in this case."

That simply cannot be allowed. He must be SILENCED. Censorship is the new Black.
.
Zackly!
When efforts to silence the opposition fail, Democrats must destroy them.
This obviously didn’t pass the Orwellian Twitter Ministry of Truth standards
Guess Little Marco made good on his threat.
Paul Joseph Watson, Candace Owens and Steven Crowder are probably next.
You can bet your butt they are.
They are testing the water.
I believe it about CNN’s Oliver Darcy.
“The video in question showed Jones shouting at and berating CNN journalist Oliver Darcy for some 10 minutes in between two congressional hearings focused on social media. Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey testified at both hearings, but did not appear to witness the confrontation.
Darcy has aggressively questioned social media companies about the forbearance they showed Jones, asking why they have allowed him to remain on their platforms for as long as they have.”
Jones calls CNN’S OLIVER DARCY, THE ARCHITECT OF DEPLATFORMING CONSERVATIVES
You only get flack when you are over the target.
For some reason, Alex especially bothered them. probably a coincidence that he was the only guy telling us we are governed by a pagan pedophile cult in DC.
Watson. He’s a good one. Matter of fact, he’s the one who helped me to see the better things that Alex Jones was trying to accomplish, that is, once Jones learned to avoid a couple of problems.
Once social media removes real conservatives, since most people get their information through social media, we won’t win elections. It’s do or die.
Watson is suspended 12 hours. Thought crime is the reason.
He acted like a total buffoon and a-hole yesterday and played into the leftists hands completely
“Censorship is the new Black.”
Au contraire, mon frere. Censorship is the new WHITE.
I may not agree with AJ all of the time, but these Nazi tactics are exactly why I don’t do Twitter, Facebook, Google...
“probably a coincidence that he was the only guy telling us we are governed by a pagan pedophile cult in DC.”
That is a “Crazy Conspiracy Theory!”
Just like thinking that there could be a DEEP STATE running DC, that Soros was financing a huge organization designed to control America, or that the DNC could even THINK about stealing the nomination away from Bernie.
CRAZY!! thinking this stuff is just CRAZY, I tell ya!!
Guess Alex should not have called Rubio a faggot - well a “bath house boy.”
Of course, Lil Marco Rubio does dine on tube steak, AND HE does take it up the poop chute. Truth hurts.
Did you see Laura Loomer get tossed out yesterday by Rep Billy Long (R-LA). He made a joke of it, sounding off like an auctioneer.
Gotta love the circular firing squad. Loomer is one of the good guys (gals). One of these days Marxists are going to take over Washington DC and conservatives will be scratching their heads, wondering how in the hell that happened.
These sites are where the fight is. Every conservative needs to be on them, hammering away.
Haven’t seen it yet. Loomer is great. She got tossed out by a Republican? Ridiculous.
