In a series of four tweets from the official @POTUS government Twitter account, the President broke his silence following the ban of his personal @realDonaldTrump account this evening.

The first tweet from the POTUS account following President Trump's Twitter ban received well over 10 thousands retweets, and over 16 thousand likes, with supporters of the President backing his message. However, within three minutes of posting the Twitter thread, it was removed.

"As I have been saying for a long time, Twitter has gone further and further in banning free speech, and tonight, Twitter employees have coordinated with the Democrats and the Radical Left in removing my account from their platform, to silence me – and YOU, the 75,000,000 patriots who voted for me," the President wrote:

Twitter may be a private company, but without the government's gift of Section 230 they would not exist for long. I predicted this would happen. We have been negotiating with various other sites, and will have a big announcement soon, while we also look at the possibilities of building out our own platform in the near future. We will not be SILENCED! Twitter is not about FREE SPEECH. They are all about promoting a Radical Left platform where some of the most vicious people in the world are allowed to speak freely. STAY TUNED!
