Dan Bongino Banned From YouTube

(Headline USA) YouTube permanently banned conservative commentator Dan Bongino from its platform on Wednesday after he allegedly tried to evade a previous suspension.

Bongino’s digital radio show page had been suspended for violating YouTube’s COVID-19 misinformation policy, so he uploaded a video explaining his intention to leave YouTube to his main channel. YouTube claimed this was also a violation of its rules.

“When a channel receives a strike, it is against our Terms of Service to post content or use another channel to circumvent the suspension,” a spokesperson for the company said.

Hilarious watching the @YouTube communists desperately try to save face after we told them to go f%^* themselves.
They’re claiming we “tried to evade suspension.” Really? By posting a final video LITERALLY titled “Why I’m Leaving YouTube”? 🤦🤦

As a result, both of Bongino’s channels, which had accrued nearly 900,000 subscribers, have been removed for good, and he will not be able to create a new one in the future, the spokesperson added.

“YouTube attempted a poorly executed ‘You can’t break up with me if I break up with you first’ approach, and decided to ban Dan from the platform he just left and was never going to post to again,” Bongino’s news aggregation website, Bongino Report, said in a statement.

Bongino said earlier this week that he would be leaving YouTube because he could no longer put up with the Big Tech giant’s anti-conservative bias. He told viewers he’d be posting his content to Rumble, a conservative alternative to YouTube, instead.
