After Twitter suspended President Donald Trump’s account and some other Trump team accounts, people noticed that Rush Limbaugh‘s account was down.

Limbaugh reportedly deactivating his account came on the heels of other high-profile Trump supporters railing against the bans of the president. Mark Levin said he’s leaving Twitter “in protest against Twitter’s fascism.” Some prominent Trump supporters have been pushing Parler as an alternative for months.
