"Mr. Nunes’s suit alleged that the parody accounts had engaged in a “vicious defamation campaign” against the congressman. It also said the strategist, Liz Mair, “engaged in a joint effort” with the two parody accounts to “defame” Mr. Nunes. The identities of the creators of the two accounts are not publicly known."

That twitter account (whether this one that was banned is affiliated, I have no idea) was a parody account. Nunes sued for defamation and lost. I can see why that particular account name would not be allowed on TS.

Whatever is going on here makes no difference to me. I am just waiting to see how this all plays out once it goes fully live. Discernment.
