Twitter chief executive Jack Dorsey privately phoned Democratic Rep. Ilhan Omar on Tuesday, more than a week after President Trump shared an incendiary video targeting the congresswoman that resulted in her receiving a flood of death threats.
U.S. Rep. Ilhan Omar By Tony Romm Tony Romm Staff writer covering technology policy Email Bio Follow April 25 at 5:34 PM Twitter chief executive Jack Dorsey phoned Democratic Rep. Ilhan Omar on Tuesday and stood by the company’s decision to permit a tweet from President Trump that later resulted in a flood of death threats targeting the congresswoman.
Omar pressed Dorsey to explain why Twitter didn’t remove Trump’s tweet outright, according to a person familiar with the conversation who spoke on condition of anonymity because the call was private. Dorsey said that the president’s tweet didn’t violate the company’s rules, a second person from Twitter confirmed.
On Thursday, a spokesman for Omar declined to comment. Following the president’s tweet, Omar said on April 14 that she had witnessed an “increase in direct threats on my life — many directly referencing or replying to the president’s video." Other Democratic leaders later condemned Trump as well. But in recent weeks, Twitter has signaled it is rethinking that policy. Company leaders recently said they are planning to institute a new approach that would provide more context around tweets that its rules would have prohibited but were permitted to remain on the site anyway because of the speaker. Such a policy could result in public notations on Trump’s own tweets.
