Roger Stone says he was banned again from Twitter after reappearing on the social media website following an announcement that Elon Musk would purchase the company.
“Well [expletive] I’m back on Twitter,” Stone wrote on Telegram on Thursday morning. “I’m anxious to see how strong Elon Musk’s commitment to free speech is.”
A Daily Beast article claimed that he “[tried] to come back to Twitter” and was “immediately re-banned.” But Stone, a longtime political operative, said Friday in a subsequent Telegram post said that he didn’t try to reinstate his old Twitter account, which had hundreds of thousands of followers before it was banned several years ago.
