"Twitter is suppressing an official press release from the HouseJudiciary Committee Republicans after they reposted verbatim the New York Post story that purportedly showed emails between Hunter Biden, the son of Democratic vice presidential candidate Joe Biden, and a Ukrainian energy executive indicating that the younger Biden introduced the executive and the then-vice president.

Arguably Twitter can block what they choose to block but when they're blocking government websites then are they not going a bit too far?

Nah. As a private website, they can censor whatever and whoever they want to censor on their own platform. Thing is, screwing around with the government is screwing around with the very people who can take away their Section 230 immunities and open the door for individuals to sue them...

... so, yeah, they might be screwing the wrong pooch there.

See, they are immune to lawsuits concerning what users post on their platforms... UNTIL they start picking and choosing what is and isn't posted. That falls under "editorial license", and opens them to allegations of all manner of unsavory activity, not the least of which is "political donation in kind", which can then put them under the federal Election Commission microscope...

Diogenes was eating bread and lentils for supper. He was seen by the philosopher Aristippus, who lived comfortably by flattering the king.

Said Aristippus, ‘If you would learn to be subservient to the king you would not have to live on lentils.’ Said Diogenes, ‘Learn to live on lentils and you will not have to be subservient to the king.’
