Founder of Project Veritas Sues Twitter After Being Permanently Banned

James O’Keefe, the right-wing founder of Project Veritas, filed a defamation lawsuit against Twitter, claiming the social media giant falsely accused him of operating fake accounts when it permanently banned him from the platform last week. O’Keefe’s lawsuit comes just four days after Twitter suspended O’Keefe’s account and claimed he violated its platform manipulation rules, which bar users from setting up false accounts or using multiple accounts to “artificially amplify or disrupt conversations.”
