Earlier today, US Army combat veteran and Purple Heart recipient Joe Biggs was suspended by X.
Mr. Biggs served several years in federal prison after being convicted on charges relating to January 6th, with President Trump securing his release with a presidential commutation a few months ago.
Biggs simply walked inside the US Capitol and received a staggering 17-year prison sentence.
While Biggs is known for his combative style on social media, during protests, and on broadcast interviews, no actual reason or violation of X’s rules has been given to him following the suspension.
According to former Proud Boys Chairman and regular Biggs collaborator Enrique Tarrio, it still remains unclear what lead to Biggs’ suspension on X.
”Elon Musk has undoubtedly fixed many, if not most of the censorship problems on the platform. However, it still appears that there are some ghosts in the machine that lead to accounts like Biggs’ getting suspended or even earning permanent bans. Here’s to hoping this suspension gets lifted, as we still have so much work to do in terms of restoring the promise of America. X is a big part of that process in terms of elevating dissident voices,” Tarrio told this Gateway Pundit journalist.
Tarrio, who is in the process of launching an online shop for right-leaning apparel and a new podcast network, said on X that his plans to pay for X’s Gold verification (that costs over $2,000.00 monthly) has put those plans on hold until Biggs’ account is restored.
I was about to pay for Gold verification on both my shop account and our new Podcast network. That would be $2000 a month not including the affiliate badges and blue checks
I’m suspending those plans until we get @RealJoeBiggs acct restored.@X @Support @elonmusk what’s up man? https://t.co/KCOmKR7RxG

Since Musk’s takeover of Twitter (now called X), there have been instances of coordinated efforts by the alt-left, where they mass report America First and free speech absolutists accounts.
“I thought X was a free speech platform. Once again, we are silenced if we speak out against certain groups and organizations,” Biggs texted when asked for comment about his suspension.
