Project Veritas founder and president James O’Keefe’s Twitter account has been suspended the same week that the undercover organization has been releasing secretly recorded footage of remarks made by a CNN employee.
“I am suing Twitter for defamation because they said I, James O’Keefe, ‘operated fake accounts.’ This is false, this is defamatory, and they will pay. Section 230 may have protected them before, but it will not protect them from me. The complaint will be filed Monday,” O’Keefe said in a statement.
Project Veritas reported that a spokesperson for the social media company confirmed that O’Keefe is permanently barred “for violating the Twitter Rules on platform manipulation and spam.” — Source: Just The News
