Twitter Inc permanently suspended an account of Steve Bannon, while Google’s YouTube removed one of his videos after the former White House strategist on Nov 5 advocated violence against US officials.

Bannon, in an episode of his online show War Room Pandemic, had earlier called for the heads of Anthony Fauci, director of the US National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, and Christopher Wray, director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation, to be mounted on pikes at the White House.
