Socialist King Maker Twitter has banned Project Veritas founder James O'Keefe for alleged violation of its policies on “platform manipulation and spam,” silencing his account amid a series of undercover scoops on CNN's propagandist tactics. O'Keefe's suspension from Twitter will likely come as good news to CNN, which hasn't responded to the latest round of Project Veritas stories about the network and has lobbied for competing news outlets to be censored for reporting *“misinformation.”*

Twitter permanently suspended the Project Veritas account on its platform and temporarily locked O'Keefe's account in February, saying the undercover video outlet has repeatedly violated its policy on private information. O'Keefe said at the time that the video in question featured Project Veritas journalists confronting Facebook vice president of integrity Guy Rosen outside his home.

The latest shutdown came after O'Keefe posted three straight days of scoops in which CNN technical director Charlie Chester is shown on video, talking to an undercover reporter. Chester, who reportedly thought he was talking to a Tinder date, told the reporter about CNN's propagandist efforts to oust President Donald Trump, its fearmongering about Covid-19 to boost ratings and its efforts to make Black Lives Matter look good.

The social media giant told O'Keefe on Thursday that his account is permanently suspended and will not be reinstated, citing an allegation that he used fake or multiple accounts to manipulate conversations on the platform. Twitter said in a [statement](https://thehill.com/media/548530-twitter-suspended-project-veritass-james-okeefe) to The Hill and other media outlets that *“you can't artificially amplify or disrupt conversations through the use of multiple accounts.”*
