Twitter shut down the account of the U.S.-based Christian Post for accurately describing President Joe Bidens transgender assistant health secretary, Rachel Levine, as a man and the social media giant cited a foreign law to justify its actions.
The evangelical Christian outlet told its readers on Monday that its Twitter account had been temporarily limited because of a tweet about Levine, a man who identifies as female.
The Christian Post said it was told by Twitter it no longer would be able to post anything new and could not like or follow other users or retweet posts.
The outlet was further informed that it would be suspended from Twitter for 12 hours.
The offensive tweet was the Christian Posts March 15 message that read, USA Today names Rachel Levine, a man, among its Women of the Year.'
As of Wednesday afternoon, the tweet was replaced by a message that reads, This Tweet violated the Twitter Rules. Learn more.
The outlet said it was told it had been flagged for possible violations of Twitters hateful conduct policy. This policy, Twitter said, is based on Frances Law for Confidence in the Digital Economy.
