Not only are stories being nailed and killed, now regular everyday members. Twitter and freedom of speech are separating from one another. The only benefit from this is helping the left. It is not illegal, against the rules or anything like that. The Dems just don't want that right now, so Twitter follows.

Twitter Claims Naming Alleged Ukraine Whistleblower Isn’t Against the Rules, but Suspends Users for It
Twitter has stated in ongoing communication with Breitbart News that naming the alleged Ukraine whistleblower, Eric Ciaramella, would not be a breach of its rules against posting “personally identifiable information.” But multiple accounts that have been suspended by the platform for posting Ciaramella’s name.
Breitbart News sent an inquiry to Twitter after reports of multiple accounts being suspended or forced to delete their tweets after naming Ciaramella as the alleged whistleblower.

According to a Twitter spokeswoman, “per the private information policy, any Tweets that include personally identifiable information about any individual, including the alleged whistleblower, would be in violation of the Twitter Rules.”
A Twitter spokeswoman contacted Breitbart News after this article’s publication to clarify that posting the alleged whistleblower’s name is not a violation of its policies against personally identifiable information. However, screenshots from conservative Twitter users show that accounts posting Ciaramella’s name — and nothing else — have been suspended under the PII policy.
Twitter said it is looking into the cause of these suspensions.
If Twitter does indeed consider naming Ciaramella to be a violation of its rules, it appears to be having trouble enforcing them — numerous accounts, both verified and unverified, are still tweeting Ciaramella’s name.
Facebook also is blanket-banning references to the alleged whistleblower, including articles from Breitbart News and other publishers that have named him.
As Breitbart News reported earlier today, the alleged whistleblower’s name has been reported widely across both conservative and non-conservative media, and has been mentioned by numerous public figures.
