Twitter Locked Out Congressional Candidate Joe Kent Over Tweet Supporting Gun Rights<\/a><\/p>\n

Twitter suspended the account of Joe Kent, a Republican congressional candidate from Washington state for tweeting in support of gun rights. He had to delete the tweet to recover his account.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe will never give up our gun laws,\u201d Kent tweeted. \u201cGun laws are infringements of our god given rights.WA state is back at it, a week ago we caught the board of health discussing forced quarantine, now the legislature going after our 2A. No 2A + forced quarantine = Australia.\u201d<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Kent, a retired Green Beret, is running for Congress in Washington state.<\/p>\n

\u201cToday I was suspended for defending 2A & calling out WA state\u2019s COVID policies including the potential of forced quarantine,\u201d Kent tweeted after he recovered his account.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

He vowed to fight Big Tech if he is elected.<\/p>\n

\u201cI will NEVER stop defending our 2A & fighting COVID mandates. When I get elected to Congress I will help Break Up Big Tech,\u201d Kent wrote.<\/p>\n

Speaking to\u00a0Breitbart<\/a>, he said Twitter is targeting those challenging Biden\u2019s foreign policy.<\/p>\n

\u201cTwitter\u2019s suspension of me is without cause,\u201d Kent said in a comment according to Breitbart. \u201cIn the past 24 hours I have tweeted my concerns about Biden recklessly escalating tensions with Russia over Ukraine. It is clear that Twitter is trying to silence credible voices that are questioning Biden\u2019s disastrous foreign policy.\u201d<\/p>\n

He added: \u201cThis is big tech limiting my voice as an American and as a political candidate. It\u2019s very telling that they focused on me over my take on an issue that has bipartisan establishment & mainstream media support; another war. The establishment is craving war and won\u2019t tolerate dissent.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
