Months after former President Donald Trump's Twitter account was deleted, Donald Jr. decided it’s his turn to wage a battle against Big Tech by leaving YouTube and joining alternative platform Rumble.
“It’s a platform that still believes in freedom of speech,” Donald Jr. said of his decision to leave YouTube and moving into Rumble. “It’s not like so many of the other social platforms out there where, obviously, you know leadership is totally biased, where the algorithms only go one way, where they do whatever they can to possibly censor one side of the conversation, and always going against conservatives.”
Since joining Rumble, the former president's son has already put out video content under the titles of "So Biden Just Got a Huge Loss for his Presidency," "These Teachers Unions are out of Control" and "Imagine if they followed their own rules"—with each video already garnering almost 100,000 views.
During the months preceding and succeeding the last presidential election, YouTube ramped up its crackdown on videos posted by conservatives highlighted by the ban on pro-life organization LifeSiteNews and the suspension of then-President Trump's channel, mrc NewsBusters reported.
