Twitter CEO Elon Musk confirmed Friday that political candidates in the United States and abroad were subject to “shadow-banning” by Twitter while running for office or seeking re-election.

“So here’s a question for [Elon Musk] and [Bari Weiss]: were any political candidates — either in the U.S. or elsewhere — subject to shadowbanning while they were running for office or seeking re-election?” tweeted conservative commentator Ian Miles Cheong.

“Yes,” Musk simply replied, but he did not provide detail on any specific political candidates who were subject to shadow-banning.

So here’s a question for @elonmusk and @bariweiss: were any political candidates — either in the US or elsewhere — subject to shadowbanning while they were running for office or seeking re-election?
