Great explainer, glad I found this to be better informed. One question, I see from a comment from someone else that Twitter reversed the ban 2 days after it first went into effect…however this seems to be missing from your timeline. Is this indeed correct, that the ban only lasted 2 days?
It's also worth noting that the suppression of the story was literally only in place for two days, and the author of the NY Post story refused to have his name attached to it because it smelled off to him as well.
Twitter kept the Post story from being shared for a few days at most. Msybe they had valid reasons, maybe they were slow to act. Maybe it was malicious.
But the GQP will have you believe the Post itself was censored. Like, there was no other place to access this article. That's pure BS.

One thing that appears to be missing is the fact that several NY POST reporters refused to allow their names to be used on the laptop article because they questioned the veracity of the reporting. How or whether that influenced Twitter decisions is not known to me, but it was one of several red flags that were hoisted at the time. https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/us-election/new-york-post-joe-biden-hunter-biden-ukraine-corruption-rudy-guliani-b1160302.html

Can you expand on this? Where did he do this?
