Outspoken conservative actor James Woods has been banned from Twitter for more than a week after he tweeted “If you try to kill the King, you best not miss’ #HangThemAll” – an apparent reference to the Mueller report.
Woods’s girlfriend Sara Miller tweeted a screenshot of Twitter’s account suspension, which cites “targeted harassment” as the reason.

In September, Woods was temporarily suspended for posting a satirical meme which very clearly parodies a Democratic advertisement campaign, encouraging liberal men to “make a woman’s vote worth more” by staying home.
On Friday, President Trump tweeted: “So surprised to see Conservative thinkers like James Woods banned from Twitter, and Paul Watson banned from Facebook!”

How is it that @RealJamesWoods is currently being banned on Twitter, but @JimCarrey is not? It’s certainly not any standard based on “hate.” Carrey’s latest Twitter “art” shows Bill Barr drowning in a sea of vomit. @Jack – how ‘bout we let everybody speak and the People decide?
According to Breitbart‘s James Caruso, Twitter appears to have two sets of standards, and has given many on the left a pass for much, much worse behavior. Via Breitbart:
- Twitter allowed a number of verified accounts to participate in doxxing and violent threats against teenagers from Covington Catholic high school in January.
- Sen. Susan Collins (R-ME) was on the receiving end of vicious sexist Twitter abuse after she defended Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh.
- Actor Peter Fonda said that Barron Trump should be taken away from his Melania and put in a cage with pedophiles. Fonda also called for Kirstjen Nielsen to be whipped. He later apologized.
- Hollywood star Jim Carrey posted a drawing of Eric Trump and Donald Trump Jr. getting bludgeoned to death by an elephant last year. The tweet is still up.
- In 2016, various accounts called for and cheered on the shooting of police officers.
Twitter appears to be a highly efficient ‘Time Waster’ for an entry-level job . Trump has transformed the presidency so that anyone who is a naturalized born citizen , regardless of acting credits or sleep habits , can tweet 50 times a day , best done between 2 and 3 a.m. Of course , the parenting skills of a habitual Twitter-head are severely degraded. But hey, no one is keeping track of how few minutes a president spends with his family monthly or yearly. He is now free to immerse himself in bonding . Let’s give him encouragement . A father figure is a terrible thing to waste .
