White House denies blocking 13-year-old critic on Twitter

By Bradford Richardson

The White House says it is not blocking 13-year-old conservative activist C.J. Pearson from following President Obama’s Twitter account.

Pearson claimed the White House blocked him after he criticized President Obama’s decision to invite 14-year-old Ahmed Mohamed to the White House. Mohamed made headlines after he was arrested for bringing a homemade clock to school that officials mistook for a bomb.

But the White House contends it doesn’t block anyone from Twitter, as the administration’s policy is that official governmental accounts not block any followers.

Frank Benenati, an assistant White House press secretary, Tweeted about the policy after Pearson accused the White House of blocking him.

I saw a screenshot that purported to show the Obama twit blocking this lad. Of course, anything can be photoshopped, but what's more likely?

I remember another democratic POTUS saying "I did not have sex with that woman" and there was DNA to prove he was lying. :jail:

Me too.

Me three.

Who's likely to be more honest?  A conservative kid, or a Marxist punk?



I rest my case.....    ^-^
Character still matters.  It always matters.

I wear a mask as an exercise in liberty and love for others.  To see it as an infringement of liberty is to entirely miss the point.  Be kind.

"Sometimes I think the Church would be better off if we would call a moratorium on activity for about six weeks and just wait on God to see what He is waiting to do for us. That's what they did before Pentecost."   - A. W. Tozer

Use the time God is giving us to seek His will and feel His presence.
