I think they went quiet right after Murdoch's visit to McConnell.

I hadn't heard anything, so I figured they were back at the twitter machine. Hmmm.

The best explanation I’ve heard is that this was court-ordered to the organization but sealed. That would explain why individual asshats like Hannity continue to tweet. They aren’t a party to the order and don’t know about it.

The McConnell-Murdoch meeting looks suspicious as hell given the timing, but I haven’t heard another word about it since. I can only speculate McConnell tipped off Murdoch or vice versa.

Are the protesting that Twitter kicked other hate groups off their platform?
