Twitter posthumously stripped Andrew Breitbart of his account’s verified status. The Twitter account of Breitbart, who passed away in March of 2012, no longer contains a blue checkmark.

Archived webpages of the legendary conservative journalist’s Twitter, however, show that his account had the symbol through at least January 11th, 2021.

The following archive of Breitbart’s Twitter page, from February 20th, 2021, lacks a checkmark next to his name.

Yet twatter didn’t seem to mind Congressional Fascist Leftists adding blue checkmarks to presented screenshots of “tweets”.

It was justified. He was an enemy of the state and deserved his fate. As do all conservatives. - Jack Dorsey

In Heaven, God and Andrew are not worried about a blue checkmark.

Leftists are angry, miserable people. They can never find happiness and strike out at others. They love power and control over people and events. Sounds like evil to me.

I used to work at a place that was all interrelated people. Not nepotism, like you would think of, but there were about a thousand employees and a small town. I was from another town, about 30 miles away and commuted.

On day One, as I was being given the ‘tour of the plant’ and introduced to everybody, I was told by the guy who I was replacing, “Be very careful what you say to anybody here, just about everybody is someone’s brother, sister, cousin, mother or father. Anything you say bad about someone goes thru this place like wildfire.”

I worked there 6 months and went back to my previous employer. It was horrible. It was like I was ‘shunned’ because I was not a part of their ‘community’................

Leftists hate everybody.

I was saying in the days after Rush passed, the people that were celebrating his death were the very same people that hate America.

Same with Breitbart.

Worked for a company that was owned, and most of the staff were, Mormons.

Exactly the same. Gone in two months. Never again.

I worked at a place where we joked that the phone list was sorted by first name so you couldn’t see all the people with the same last names.

Oh yeah...one of those insular, clique-ish companies where you’ll always be an outsider. It’s like being at Twilight Zone Jr. High.

Leaving companies like that is pretty much the only way to go,
