That platform banned Trump following the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on Congress by supporters of the former president who were unwilling to accept his defeat in the 2020 election. Many Trump loyalists believe Twitter’s fact-checking practices and rules of civility discriminate against their right-wing ideology.
