YouTube Restores Trump's Account, Suspend After Attack on U.S. Capitol

YouTube restored former president Donald Trump’s account, making it the last major social media platform to do so after suspending him in the days after the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol. YouTube said in a tweet it had “carefully evaluated the continued risk of real-world violence while balancing the chance for voters to hear equally from major national candidates in the run up to an election.”
