"After close review of recent Tweets from the @realDonaldTrump account and the context around them we have permanently suspended the account due to the risk of further incitement of violence," the company said in a tweet. Social media companies have cracked down on Trump's accounts in the wake of the turmoil in Washington, D.C., on Wednesday, which led to five deaths. Facebook Inc said earlier this week it was suspending his account through until at least the end of his presidential term. Twitter had temporarily blocked Trump's account on Wednesday following the siege of Capitol Hill, and warned that additional violations by the president's accounts would result in a permanent suspension. Trump still has access to the official @WhiteHouse and @POTUS accounts but will lose this when his presidential term ends.
