President Donald Trump’s personal attorney Rudy Giuliani still had a Twitter account as of Saturday but one of his recent podcasts was removed by YouTube.

A message on a video, which Giuliani also tweeted Friday, says it "has been removed for violating YouTube's Community Guidelines." Google-owned YouTube also confirmed to USA TODAY Saturday that Giuliani's video violated the company's guidelines.

Giuliani didn't immediately respond to USA TODAY's request for comment. His Twitter account tweeted about the video again Saturday night, which is now posted on his website, and wrote "YOUTUBE CENSORED AND REMOVED THIS VIDEO."

YouTube had said it is cracking down on new videos featuring misinformation as they and other tech companies including Facebook and Twitter face backlash after a mob stormed the U.S. Capitol on Wednesday. In the video podcast, Giuliani describes the events that day, suggesting they were orchestrated to make President Trump look bad.

1. What took so long?

2. Call me cynical, but why now? Is it because in a few days, Dems will control the federal government?

The people being kicked off these platforms didn't just start being assholes on Weds. Many people will hail big tech, I say screw 'em. The damage is done.
