Twitter confirmed to Fox News that the radio host and Trump backer had taken down his account, which had 88.6 million followers.

Like they are worried Trump and his alternative means of communicating are a threat in these next weeks.

Nothing like being able to tweet to 80+ million something that was just ‘declassified’..

And have that go worldwide in a blink.

And that tells me they somehow orchestrated letting the protestors into the Capitol.

I have a friend who told me recently that Rush was getting him through and keeping up his spirits over the past year. (My friend was retired from the Navy.)


I’ve been a loyal Rush listener for 30 years. Let me tell you, I’ve never been more thankful to hear Rush’s voice than the past 2 days. Especially considering what he is going through. As I type this I’m getting pretty emotional. Not much else to say....

What if all conservatives pulled out of Twitter? People worry that we would lose influence. But what would the left do without conservative posts to attack? They would not have anything to do and eventually they would attack each other. Twitter needs members to sell their data, so they would lose money.

Trump probably has a lot of things to consider before ‘declassifying’ various documents.

He’s not as stupid or irresponsible as the democrats and Nazi Pelosi try to suggest that he is - he’s probably a lot less ‘deranged’ than Nazi is herself.

But I’m sure he’s kept lots of stuff close to the vest. That’s why they’re so afraid of him.

I talked to my friend at Christmas, and we agreed that Rush is an amazing inspiration to us, to be coming on the radio sounding so upbeat and full of energy, considering all he’s going through.

God Bless.

I also delisted my 15 year long twitter account. If one had doubts about social media’s cabal against an opposing point of view, look no farther than their actions of the last couple days

That’s probably the truth.

They’re not very original, they just go with what they think is psychologically useful; so we always see through them.

They don’t have the grey matter to come up with anything really inventive.

Did rush leave a last message suggesting his 88m followers do the same?
