Roger Stone is back on Twitter and 'grateful' to Elon Musk for overturning his permanent ban
The livestream, aired on Lindell TV, opened with a commercial for far-right conspiracy theorist and businessman Mike Lindell’s MyPillow bedding products before Stone was introduced as a “legendary Republican strategist” and “icon.” Just before he came on, the screen flashed a headline about Donald Trump pardoning Stone in 2020, erasing his convictions for witness tampering and lying to Congress, which were brought about by special counsel Robert Mueller’s Russia investigation.
Stone kicked off the broadcast by announcing that it was his and wife Nydia Stone’s 31st wedding anniversary. “As a very special anniversary present,” he continued, “I learned roughly an hour ago that my genuine Twitter page, my Twitter profile… has been reinstated by Twitter. My thanks go to Elon Musk, who is a man of his word, and who I now believe — based on this act, and a number of other acts — is committed to free speech.
Stone had attempted to get back on Twitter in April, when Musk first struck a deal to acquire the company, but was almost immediately suspended again. “Well bitches I’m back on Twitter,” he had tweeted before the new ban took effect. “I posted a new account to prove a point,” heafterward, adding: “I look forward to whoever made the decision to suspend my account getting fired. Attn: Elon Musk.”for his commitment to fairness and free speech.
