Social media giant, Twitter, has blocked users from sharing U.S. President Donald Trump’s national address to his supporters who clashed with police operatives at Capitol Hill on Wednesday.
Trump asked the protesters to “go home in peace” after the mob breached security to attack parts of the U.S. capitol hill.
Trump claimed that the November 3 2020 presidential election was rigged in favor of President-elect Joe Biden.
“We don’t want anybody hurt, it’s a very tough period of time…this is a fraudulent election and we can’t play into the hands of these people.
“So go home in peace,” he said.
But Twitter said the video violated its rules and blocked it from being shared.
Biden had also called out Trump for inciting his supporters, and urged the outgoing president to tell the protesters to end the siege.
Since the November 3, 2020 election was called for Biden, Twitter had flagged almost all of Trump’s claims of electoral malpractice.
