YouTube permanently bans Dan Bongino

My apology for the source but it's the only one for the moment.

YouTube on Wednesday permanently banned conservative commentator Dan Bongino from the platform, saying he attempted to evade a previous suspension.

The Fox host uploaded a video to his main channel while his secondary channel, which primarily hosted short clips from his digital radio show, was actively suspended for violating YouTube’s COVID-19 misinformation policy.

“When a channel receives a strike, it is against our Terms of Service to post content or use another channel to circumvent the suspension,” a YouTube spokesperson told The Hill.

Both of Bongino’s channels have been removed and he will not be able to create a new one in the future, the platform said.

The YouTube spokesperson confirmed that attempts to make new channels “associated with his name” will also be denied.

This guy is a hilarious--if sometimes absurdist--riot.

They also got rid of a Q channel that frequently featured David Todeschini, a convicted pedophile who sodomized and sexually abused an 8 year old boy and an 11 year old boy. Q, the organization that claims every president since Truman has been sexually abusing children...

I'll defer to his personal experience with Trump but am doubtful about the others....

Worst insult possible! “I never heard of the guy.”
