Twitter might be unwilling to crack down on tweets by politicians, but it still has its restrictions—and one political member might have crossed the limit. The social media firm has undyingly barred Danielle Stella’s (Republican House candidate) campaign and personal accounts for “repeated breaches” of policies by Twitter. While it did not tell on what those breaches were, Stella’s campaign recommended that incumbent representative and her possible rival Ilhan Omar must be “hanged and tried for #treason” if she was discovered to have passed sensitive data through Qatar to Iran. That claim is unconfirmed by proof. The posts might have breached Twitter policies banning the promotion of threats or violence.

Stella has refused that she was calling against Omar for violence, stating rather that she was just asking for the “execution of federal code.” Omar has been the recurrent target of threats, most of them owing to conspiracy conjectures, and in a post disputed that “violent rhetoric” such as Stella’s “unavoidably” results to attacks and threats.

Twitter refused to further detail the media beyond claiming that Stella had breached laws. On the other hand, this can simply be understood as a display of force. While the social media firm has noticeably avoided prohibitions in opposition to sitting politicians with statements that it needs to preserve posts with cultural significance, barring Stella displays that it does not have infinite patience. This may dissuade others from employing violent language.

On a related note, Twitter earlier found a method to avoid the ethical doubts around political ads: such as TikTok, it is removing them completely. Jack Dorsey earlier declared that the firm is ending all political ads outside of non-partisan exclusions, whether they arrive from interest groups or candidates. It offered the completed policy last month, and started enforcing it as well.
