Twitch has disabled President Donald Trump’s account indefinitely following his encouragement of a pro-Trump mob’s attack of the US Capitol on Wednesday.

“In light of yesterday’s shocking attack on the Capitol, we have disabled President Trump’s Twitch channel,” a Twitch spokesperson said in a statement. “Given the current extraordinary circumstances and the President’s incendiary rhetoric, we believe this is a necessary step to protect our community and prevent Twitch from being used to incite further violence.” The company says it will reassess Trump’s account after he leaves office.

Trump’s account remains live, so archived videos and his profile are still available. But while the account is disabled, he won’t be able to stream.

So facebook, Twitter, what about Insta? I also heard some video stream company banned Trump's business stuff...

This is frightening. I don't care who you are-this is wrong. Did they ban Obama's stuff when he truly incited violence?

Literally did not happen, and no one will provide a direct quote showing he did.

They said they will go after the 1st Amendment, then the 2nd, so sounds about right

Facebook, Instagram, and Twitch are suspended through the 20th. Twitter last I heard would be restored today to be suspended indefinitely if he violates their feelings again.

It’s become the cool thing on the left to get at Trump any way they can.
They’re crazed at this point.

He literally did the opposite and called on the protestors to be peaceful and leave the Capitol.

Those videos were taken down though so the MSM could perpetuate falsehoods.

Yeah I heard that some were banning him until he leaves office. That is communism running things.

Who the frick do they think they are banning until he leaves office as in they force him out?
