Trump Spokes-Shill Liz Harrington’s Twitter Account is ‘Temporarily Restricted’

Seven months ago Twitter belatedly banished the account of Donald Trump as he was promulgating blatant lies about election fraud and whipping up his cult disciples into savage mobs bent on sedition. Twitter imposed the ban on January 8th, two days after Trump’s deadly insurrection on Capitol Hill, saying that “we have permanently suspended the account due to the risk of further incitement of violence.”

In the seven months since his suspension Trump has actually escalated his reckless rhetoric. Trump continued to make purposefully inflammatory comments online and at his cult rallies (where he sometimes does himself more harm than good). Although he has managed to maintain an online presence despite his exile from Twitter (and YouTube and Facebook), much of it has demonstrated his infamous capacity for failure. For instance, his attempt to launch an online blog was shut down in less than a month.

However, none of that deterred Trump from pursuing his aspirations of messianic tyranny. Aiding and abetting this nightmarish goal was his new spokeswoman, Liz Harrington. As soon as she came aboard she began posting tweets that were nothing more than cut-and-paste Trumpisms that he was tweeting himself prior to his exile from social media. It was a brazen attempt to circumvent the Twitter ban, which is a violation of their terms of service.

In the month of July Harrington was Trump’s Twitter proxy more than 80 times. By allowing this, Twitter was itself helping Trump to continue disseminating his crackpot conspiracy theories that had already fomented a deadly riot and the first assault on the U.S. Congress in America’s history.

Now there appears to be at least a temporary relief from the Trumpist propaganda peddled by Harrington. On Friday morning anyone vising her Twitter account received a message saying…

“Caution: This account is temporarily restricted. You’re seeing this warning because there has been some unusual activity from this account. Do you still want to view it?”

It’s not clear what Twitter is referring to as the “unusual activity.” Neither is it clear how long the restriction will remain in place. It could be revoked within minutes or months. But it is a step in the right direction. And it validates all of the efforts by innumerable Twitter users who reported Harrington for violating Twitter’s rules.

This, however, is not the time to declare victory and withdraw. Since the account is still technically accessible, it is imperative that people continue to report it. Harrington should be suspended permanently for her repeated breaches that have allowed Trump to continue provoking potentially violent behavior. He is a clear and present danger to the nation, and Harrington (and Twitter) must not be permitted to assist him in his treasonous pursuits.

UPDATE: The restriction lasted less than 24 hours, and Harrington is back to posting Trump’s alt-tweets. So apparently Twitter still doesn’t care if their rules are violated by Trump and his confederates in ways that will surely incite further violence.

NOTE: Twitter suspended the News Corpse account after 11 years without giving a reason. So if anyone wants to tweet articles from my website, please feel free to do so often and repeatedly. Also, Be sure to visit and follow News Corpse on Instagram. Thanks for your support.

  1. Of course, being “temporary,” she’ll be back on in a couple hours screaming that she’s been CENSORED by the LEFTIES!!

    As a reminder, if WE did anything close to what Harrington did, OUR suspension wouldn’t be “temporary.”

    • Agreed. I don’t do Twitter, but do comment on news things sometimes, like here & at DailyKos. I was suspended out if the blue a few days ago – for what, I have no clue. Sure as hell nothing even close to what Trump-turd & his proxy-pimps put out there!
      The notice when I tried to ‘upvote’ a comment on Weds, said I’d “recc’d” something promoting violence – a violation of their rules. Much as I hate violence & have read some comments on DK that refer to/ suggest violent acts, I really doubt that I did something like that! Maybe rushing thru it, my fat fingers hit an ‘upvote’ button? Don’t recall anything violent on there that day? Bothers me a lot tho, so tried to contact DK & ask about it, but couldn’t figure out how to contact ’em about that. Guess I will never know what it was that I did wrong? Promoting violence is a thing I really don’t like online in today’s climate, so wanna know what am accused of at DK. Have never had that happen B4! My phone has been doing weird stuff; maybe it’s that?
      Oh well, IDK what DKos suspended me for, or what recc’d means(?), but I think am done with that ‘time-out’ on Kos 2morro. Maybe too embarrassed to go back in comments sections.

      • Since I did 12 hours in Twitter-jail for absolutely nothing I can find, I stayed out of there for a couple of days, being busy with work; today I notice she isn’t repeating /reposting those stupid grandiose proclamations by TrumpetArse, all of which just say the same thing – “The Election Was Stolen!” Instead, she’s doing her own posts saying things like, ‘More Votes in 15 Nevada Counties than Voters!’ and ‘Expert who correctly predicted all 50 states in 2016 using pop. growth/decline, Party reg. trends, and voter history, identifies 8 million excess Biden votes in 2020!’ (no mention of who the ‘expert’ is) and this gem ‘In AZ there are 210,000 excess Biden votes — in race they say was decided by 10,457’ and quoting really ‘reliable’ news sources like the Babylon Bee. So while she’s not actually quoting Trump, and the only ‘proclamations’ are rubbish not mentioning the election, she’s still casting doubt on a free and fair civil process, which is allegedly against Twitter’s rules. But people are still reporting her and looking for her to get kicked off permanently.
        I mean, really? What is she actually FOR? Why does TrumpetArse need a ‘spokesperson’, since he never shuts up anyway?

        And can someone tell me if ‘bimbo’ is a racist/national/religious/gender/transgender/or otherwise hate word?

        • A bimbo, airhead, dittohead, etc… These things do exist — have met some! I wouldn’t think it’s a hate word?!
          Besides, as my friend Gail used yo say, “If the foo shits, wear it.” LOL

  2. So, if we’re suspended or whatever, we are supposed to just guess what we did wrong?
    How is that helpful to anyone? If they don’t want me doing “it” again & they have a legit reason for suspending, I would think they’d tell the person. I can only stop doing something if I know what that is! Besides, can learn from it only if I know what “it” is!
    I like rules. Follow rules. Rules are guardrails for what’s expected; how far I can go. I like to know the rules. Stupid rules piss me off tho. If I break 1, want to know what rule? …& How? I apparently didn’t understand rule if I broke it, so explain.
    If they just don’t like my opinion, attitude, or if I state facts they don’t like… ta’ hell with them!
    Seems rules are often arbitrarily applied. (As seen with Trump-a-chump.) Depends on if ya’ get flagged perhaps? Rules only work if fair & consistently applied (says retired teacher).
