Roger Stone Kicked Off Twitter

It's almost impossible to get kicked off Twitter, but Trump troll Roger Stone has been pushing the boundaries for years. This past weekend after CNN reported the news that someone was about to be indicted, he went over the edge, and has been kicked off Twitter permanently.

What did he say? From Recode...

Why? Not just because Stone called CNN's Don Lemon a “cocksucker” and a “dull witted arrogant partyboi,” but for this tweet, which announced that Lemon “must be confronted, humiliated, mocked and punished.”



That, according to people who know things about Twitter but don’t want to say them on the record, violates Twitter’s anti-abuse rules, which say users can “not incite or engage in the targeted abuse or harassment of others” by “inciting others to harass another account.”
