@repjasmine.bsky.social And Elon and company continue on with their bullshit. I myself saw my X account locked yesterday. The post? Apparently telling MTG to “eat shut and die” counts as “violent speech.” Yet Eric Trump’s “toe the line or get run down” post doesn’t? Make it make sense…

Trump issues order to ban transgender troops from serving openly in the military
