I deleted the first tweet in this thread because it said that Trump's accounts were restored, which is false. They've always been up, just frozen. And they remain frozen. — PolitiTweet.org

Apparently these pages have always been visible. So the fact that they are visible today is not a change. — PolitiTweet.org

@atrupar No. Nothing about the status of President Trump's presence on our platform has changed. He remains indefinitely suspended.

I’ve asked Facebook to confirm what is happening and will let you know when/if I hear back — PolitiTweet.org
Judd Legum @JuddLegum
Trump’s accounts are currently restored on Facebook and Instagram. I’m unsure what to make of it though because if Facebook were to do this I’d expect them to make an announcement. They are also in the middle of a process with the Oversight Board & this would circumvent that. — PolitiTweet.org

@USChamber 7. As @marceelias notes, it wasn't always this way. In 2006, for example, corporations played a key role in convincing President Bush to sign an extension of the Voting Rights Act. A lot has changed in 15 years. https://t.co/6XeXmjcBDg https://t.co/79i2HGqUcg — PolitiTweet.org

5. Other companies that we know are funding a lobbying effort against federal legislation to protect voting rights via the @USChamber include: @salesforce @AmericanAir @BankofAmerica @Microsoft @Disney @PepsiCo @JNJNews @ford @Target @Facebook https://t.co/6XeXmjcBDg — PolitiTweet.org

4. @ATT is pretending to be "neutral" on specific voting rights legislation, claiming that "election laws are complicated, not our company's expertise, and ultimately the responsibility of elected officials." But it's not neutral. https://t.co/6XeXmjcBDg — PolitiTweet.org

@USChamber 3. Corporate contributions to the @USChamber are largely SECRET but a few companies voluntarily disclose payments. @ATT, for example, gave the Chamber $226,700 in the last six months just to support its lobbying efforts https://t.co/6XeXmjcBDg https://t.co/eWAAclY7qG — PolitiTweet.org

1. REALITY CHECK American elections faces an existential threat from GOP legislation that makes it easier to ignore voters Most major corporations are funding a lobbying effort to defeat federal legislation to save American democracy Let's review https://t.co/6XeXmjcBDg — PolitiTweet.org
Judd Legum @JuddLegum
Are the Republicans who are insisting that corporations "stay out of politics" also insisting that corporations withdraw from the @USChamber? Because the @USChamber is aggressively lobbying against federal protections for voting rights on behalf of most major corporations. — PolitiTweet.org

In this NPR interview, @travisfortexas doesn't really explain why the 11AM cutoff is appropriate or why he attempted to jam through legislation that would have restricted voting based on an alleged typo https://t.co/5wa181LchV — PolitiTweet.org
Judd Legum @JuddLegum
@travisfortexas Various Texas representatives tried to ask @travisfortexas questions on Sunday night but he refused to answer any questions about the bill. It's unclear why it would be necessary to ban voting on Sundays before 11AM either. https://t.co/Lf6LFednIT — PolitiTweet.org
Judd Legum @JuddLegum
UPDATE: One of the leading proponents of Texas' voter suppression bill, @travisfortexas, now says the bill BANNED VOTING ON SUNDAY'S BEFORE 1PM BECAUSE OF A TYPO. It was actually supposed to ban voting before 11AM on Sunday's. https://t.co/Lf6LFednIT — PolitiTweet.org

3. Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton spend 22,000 STAFF HOURS looking for evidence of voter fraud in Texas during the 2020 election and came up with [drumroll please] 16 people who put an incorrect address on their voter registration forms https://t.co/Lf6LFednIT — PolitiTweet.org

@GregAbbott_TX 2. What does banning voting before 1PM on Sundays have to do with "election integrity" No one in Texas explained The provision wasn't debated in either chamber It was added behind closed doors During the debate Sunday night, the GOP refused to take Qs https://t.co/Lf6LFednIT — PolitiTweet.org
Judd Legum @JuddLegum
1. The voter suppression bill in Texas was defeated so now Governor @GregAbbott_TX says he will DEFUND THE LEGISLATURE by vetoing its budget until it bans voting before 1PM on Sunday's and makes it easier to void elections based on claims of fraud https://t.co/Lf6LFednIT — PolitiTweet.org
