Facebook BANS Trump's account until at least Inauguration Day as Mark Zuckerberg says president 'used our platform to incite violent insurrection against a democratically elected government’ amid Capitol riots - but will Twitter also take action?

President Trump’s Facebook and Instagram accounts will remain locked until at least January 20th amid fears that he will incite more violence, after his supporters stormed the US Capitol building in Washington D.C. on Wednesday. In an extraordinary blog post, Facebook chief Mark Zuckerberg accused Trump of using the platform ‘to incite violent insurrection against a democratically elected government.’ The decision was announced by Zuckerberg on Thursday, and will likely put pressure on Twitter after Trump’s favorite social media platform suspended him for 12 hours on Wednesday evening. Zuckerberg said the president used his Facebook page 'to condone rather than condemn the actions of his supporters at the Capitol building' and that allowing him to freely post in the final 13 days of his term would pose too great a risk.   ‘The shocking events of the last 24 hours clearly demonstrate that President Donald Trump intends to use his remaining time in office to undermine the peacefu

Javanka packing up? 'College Hunks Hauling Junk' parks outside Ivanka and Jared's luxury DC to pick up clothes donations just 24 hours after MAGA riot at US Capitol and two weeks before Biden's inauguration

Movers were spotted carrying boxes filled with donations for the Salvation Army out of Jared Kuschner and Ivanka Trump's Washington DC home on Thursday, just 24 hours after a MAGA mob laid siege to the US Capitol Building.  The image was first shared to Twitter by Yahoo reporter Hunter Walker and seemed to suggest the couple could be seeking to make a swift exit from the nation’s capital ahead of Joe Biden’s inauguration on January 20. A source later told DailyMail.com that the movers were collecting clothes to be donated for the Salvation Army and they'd planned the pick-up for some time.  The picture, which Walker said was taken by a friend at 11am this morning, showed a man walking out of Javanka’s garage clutching a series of cardboard boxes.  The mover, who appeared to be working for the company ‘College Hunks Hauling Junk & Moving’, was seen hauling the boxes toward a bright orange truck emblazoned with the company’s name. ‘The question I have is which one of Jared an

How Trump fiddled with his TV remote while Capitol was ransacked: President whipped MAGA rally into a frenzy, told them to march on the Hill - then retreated to White House to watch pandemonium on cable - and refused to condemn it

Just prior to taking the stage at his ill-fated rally on Wednesday, President Donald Trump was in an upbeat mood. The Laura Branigan song Gloria blasted over loudspeakers as he stood in a tent offstage, gazing at monitors showing the massive crowd of his adoring followers, while advisor Kimberly Guilfoyle danced nearby. At the rally, Trump promised to join his loyalists in marching on the U.S. Capitol, but instead he retreated to the White House in the 'Beast' presidential limousine as the chaos he had unleashed unfolded. Cocooned in a small private dining room next to the Oval Office, Trump watched on cable news as his followers ransacked the Capitol building, but appeared disinterested in the insurrection. Instead, he grew increasingly agitated and raved furiously that his own vice president had not backed his attempt to overthrow the election, insiders say. As the television showed scenes from the Capitol that shocked the nation and the world, increasingly desperate aides pl
