Jones was suspended from Twitter for one week last month after he posted a video in which he said, “Now is time to act on the enemy before they do a false flag.” But Twitter did not ban him from its platform then, even after YouTube, Apple and Facebook each kicked him off.

In a series of tweets from its @TwitterSafety account, Twitter said, “Today, we permanently suspended @realalexjones and @infowars from Twitter and Periscope. We took this action based on new reports of Tweets and videos posted yesterday that violate our abusive behavior policy, in addition to the accounts’ previous violations.”

Twitter also said that it “will take action” if in the future it discovers other accounts being used to get around the ban of Jones and InfoWars.
