Rogan O’Handley, the infamous conservative DC Draino on Twitter, announced on Monday night that he and his lawyers will take his free speech case to the US Supreme Court.
DC Craino was suspended from Twitter for “election misinformation” after he called for an audit of the national presidential election in November 2020.
This tweet was too much for the Twitter Partner Portal team at Twitter.
This was just the start of his speech “violations” by the Twitter-government elites.
Big Tech was complicit to government requests 98% of the time in removing flagged content.
The California Secretary of State’s office led by current US Senator Alex Padilla also targeted Rogan and called on Twitter to remove his tweets.
Rogan’s final offense was this tweet and photo about Joe Biden and his “81 million” votes.
That was too much for the government censorship team. Rogan was banned from Twitter after posting that tweet in 2021.
Last night Rogan O’Handley announced he and his attorneys are taking his case to the US Supreme Court after two liberal courts threw out his First Amendment case.

1/After President Trump won in 2016, the Democrat Party pushed the Russia Collusion narrative to delegitimize his administration
Many federal, state, and NGO entities ramped-up censorship efforts online in the name of stopping “foreign interference”

3/In fact, NASS Director of Communications Maria Benson stated in email that Twitter asked her to let Secretaries of States’ offices know that it had created a separate dedicated way for election officials to “flag concerns directly to Twitter.” pic.twitter.com/X7BLKU49W8

5/NASS asked its members to give it a “heads up” when they saw mis-information to help NASS “create a more national narrative” and wanted officials to have NASS email tips on how to report “mis/disinformation” directly to Big Tech “handy” as officials “prepare[d] for battle.” pic.twitter.com/FPlk0og43e

7/On July 17, 2020, Padilla’s office sent an email to fifteen political consultants and political affairs professionals, many of whom worked on the campaigns of prominent Democrats, offering them the opportunity to bid on a $35-million-dollar “Vote Safe California” initiative

9/Who is SKDK?
They’re a political consulting firm heavily involved in then- candidate **Joe Biden’s** presidential campaign
As described by Reuters, “SKDK is closely associated with the Democratic Party, having worked on six presidential campaigns.”https://t.co/rcusH7Dnor

11/Alex Padilla was proud of the OEC’s censorship activities as was NASS
NASS has an annual award called the Innovation, Dedication, Excellence & Achievement in Service (“IDEAS”) award, recognizing “significant state contributions to the mission of NASS.”

13/Some have claimed that this Twitter Partner Portal was merely a “suggestion box” for gov’t officials and censorship wasn’t mandated
According to the CA Sec. of States’s attached press release, Big Tech was complicit **98%** of the time in removing the flagged content pic.twitter.com/LIH8Vg2Y0W
— DC_Draino (@DC_Draino) March 13, 2023
15/Despite the Post’s expression of Mr. O’Handley’s personal opinion calling for greater accountability in election processes—core political speech directly questioning Padilla’s political work—SKDK labeled the Post as “misinformation,” and flagged the Post for the OEC to censor pic.twitter.com/IybrDD1pO0
— DC_Draino (@DC_Draino) March 13, 2023
17/Shortly after Padilla’s agent or staff flagged the post to Twitter, Twitter appended commentary asserting that Mr. O’Handley’s claim about election fraud was disputed
Twitter then added a “strike” to Mr. O’Handley’s account, a clear 1st Amendment violation
— DC_Draino (@DC_Draino) March 13, 2023
19/His final violation was a tweet sarcastically mocking Joe Biden’s “victory” in 2020 where he tweeted in quotes “Most votes in American History” with a picture of the Us Capitol behind barbed wire
He was soon thereafter permanently banned for “Election Misinformation” pic.twitter.com/aGrjYIWNO7
— DC_Draino (@DC_Draino) March 13, 2023
21/This 1st Amendment case was dismissed in December of 2021 by a Democrat-appointed Judge on a Motion to Dismiss using a Summary Judgment review standard
Despite a smoking gun email, the judge said “not enough” to move forward with discoveryhttps://t.co/XtJ3HrG54V
— DC_Draino (@DC_Draino) March 13, 2023
23/It’s now time to prepare **Amicus Curiae briefs** exposing the entire gov’t censorship apparatus working w/Big Tech
Let this case “O’Handley v. Weber” be the vehicle for the Supreme Court to see just how extensive this unconstitutional censorship apparatus has metastasized… https://t.co/R3PQhvjUQ0
