Twitter blocks user after revealing AOC’s boyfriend had govt email, but I wouldn’t make a big deal about it and here’s why…

Earlier today Twitter blocked Luke Thompson’s Twitter account for posting this tweet:

Pretty soon Thompson got a response from Twitter telling him to delete the tweet because it reveals private information:

The information however wasn’t private information, as Thompson said he got it from the House Member’s directory.

Twitter has since released Thompson and allowed his tweet to stay up (as you see above):

I suspect someone at Twitter didn’t realize it was in fact public information and blocked the account by mistake. That doesn’t bother me, since Twitter took the block away after apparently realizing their mistake.

So yeah, I really wouldn’t get exercised over this and make a big deal about it. Mistakes happen to the best of us.

Back to the original tweet, Thompson had accused AOC of putting her boyfriend on staff and paying him with government funds. But according to AOC, he was just given a federal email address so he could access her calendar:

So all in all, there’s really nothing to see here.
