Twitter will have a statement momentarily, source tells me.

Previously, his account was locked for a specific period, basically a warning, "behave yourself".

Suspension means you're done, kicked out, for good.

...is it possible a suspended account still shows up, but nobody can post to it, including the account holder?
No new tweets, no replies, no retweets...
Just wondering.

Twitter has been part of a huge problem the whole damn time.

Can't wait for our new AG to investigate this company
