    Twitter suspends account that helped ignite controversy over viral encounter

    New York (CNN Business)Twitter suspended an account on Monday afternoon that helped spread a controversial encounter between a Native American elder and a group of high school students wearing Make America Great Again hats. 

    The account claimed to belong to a California schoolteacher. Its profile photo was not of a schoolteacher, but of a blogger based in Brazil, CNN Business found. Twitter suspended the account soon after CNN Business asked about it.
    The account, with the username @2020fight, was set up in December 2016 and appeared to be the tweets of a woman named Talia living in California.
    The video shared by @2020fight did not show what preceded the confrontation between the Native American elder and the high school students.
    The video had been posted earlier on Instagram by someone who was at the event, but it was @2020fight's caption that helped frame the news cycle. 
    Rob McDonagh, an assistant editor at Storyful, a service that vets content online, was monitoring Twitter activity on Saturday morning and said the @2020fight video was the main version of the incident being shared on social media.
    In one indicator of the @2020fight's video's virality, multiple newsrooms, including some national American outlets, reached out to the user asking them directly about the video.

    And our president....instead of rising to the moment and using his bully pulpit to exhibit the same sort of moral authority every single person who occupied the office before him used in similar situations, chose to take a side and further divide the country on this stupid issue by tweeting out Tucker Carlsons' talking points last night and again this morning whilst his government is currently shut down. 

    Vladimir Putin continues to be one happy sumbitch....

    Trump spreads lies daily and his Twitter account stays up.

    At least we can keep an eye on Prez Twit.

    I have a legit question about the wall.  Is there a reason it never really had momentum until after the Dems took the House?  Why didn’t they fund the wall when the GOP controlled everything?

    Cause it’s just a vote getting issue for both parties. It’s why the democrats never did anything worthwhile regarding immigration when they had control. Neither party cares, just wants voters to go to polls. If they fix the issue via compromise....how do they get their voters to the poll next time??!!

    Democrats were too busy passing Obamacare. There's always an issue to get people to go to the polls, I don't buy your argument.

    Yup, you don’t have to. Just my opinion ;)

    Why is it we keep taking about the same issues for decades though?

    I think it's because your 2 party system needs an overhaul. It seems pretty hard to get anything done. That can be both a blessing and a curse.

    There may be some truth here but I’m not convinced both-sidesing this is on the money.  I think a part of it could be that the wall is expensive and unpopular and the GOP didn’t want it to only be attached to their party.
