Political activist and former congressional candidate Laura Loomer is back on Twitter. Twitter owner Elon Musk recently announced he would reinstate many long-banned accounts, and Twitter restored Loomer’s previously banned account.
Loomer, making up for years of being cut off from her followers, has a lot to say. A quick glance at her Twitter account reveals what happens when you try to censor people and take away their ability to express themselves.

Thank you for giving me my Twitter account back, @elonmusk.
I really appreciate it. For the first time in 5 yrs, I finally feel like I have a voice in the digital public square again.
There is nothing worse than being silenced. I appreciate your efforts to expose the truth.

“This is not going to be the end of Laura Loomer,” the far-right activist told The Daily Beast shortly after her ban. Loomer said she was banned over a tweet calling newly elected Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN), one of the first Muslim women elected to Congress, “anti-Jewish.”
“Isn’t it ironic how the Twitter moment used to celebrate ‘women, LGBTQ, and minorities is a picture of Ilhan Omar?” she tweeted. “Ilhan is pro-Sharia Ilhan is pro-FGM [Female genital mutilation]. Under Sharia, homosexuals are oppressed & killed. Women are abused & forced to wear the hijab. Ilhan is anti-Jewish.”
Loomer has not wasted any time and is already tweeting up a storm.
The world is a better place when we can all speak freely.
Censorship is an enemy to humanity.
Censorship is a human rights violation.

That “lady” is me.
And now that I’m finally back on Twitter, let me be the first to say it’s not “freaking out”. It’s accountability.
I confronted @jack to his face about his illegal election interference & political censorship while he was speaking at the Bitcoin conference. https://t.co/gnE5UUowrs

It’s true.
I’m the Rosa Parks of Big Tech censorship/ civil rights violations, & Big Tech election interference.
When people read about how our elections were stolen by big tech, handcuffing myself to Twitter will be viewed in history books like a Rosa Parks on the bus moment. https://t.co/ujklByEekz

Every mainstream social media platform banned Loomer Laura because of the so-called “hate speech” policies enforced by woke left corporations. In addition to Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, Uber Eats, Paypal, and Venmo shut down her accounts. Chase Bank even cut off her access to her own online banking account.
People have strong feelings about Loomer; she has been a magnet for controversy. Like her or hate her, Twitter’s original promise was as a free speech platform; that promise was never kept, and certainly not to Loomer. Canceling people who have differing opinions from you is un-American. No matter how you feel about her, Laura is back, so prepare to get Loomered.
