Often, Twitter is a hellscape for bad takes and trolls. But yesterday, for a brief and glorious window, it became a place to celebrate the banishing of a horrid troll/prince of bad takes! Yesterday, Twitter permanently banned Jacob Wohl, the 21-year-old right-winger who masterminded a comically pitiful attempt to smear Robert Mueller, who attempted to spark a “birther” movement to derail Kamala Harris’s presidential run, who claimed he was in a “hipster coffee shop” where he heard liberals whispering about how really they love Trump. (To learn more about the hilarious ineptitude of Wohl, check out Reply All’s #131 Surefire Investigations.)

USA Today is taking credit for the ban, pointing that Twitter permanently suspended Wohl’s account after they published an expose on how he hoped to use social media to sabotage the Democrats election chances in 2020. Officially, Twitter has said in a statement, “The account was suspended for multiple violations of the Twitter Rules, specifically creating and operating fake accounts.”

Here’s how Twitter users responded to the news:

This account was secretly run by Jacob Wohl.

It's in part why he was banned from Twitter today.https://t.co/YaebbLy5eR pic.twitter.com/10y52YxWKe

So far as I can tell, Jacob Wohl has received a stiffer punishment for setting up fake twitter accounts than he has for trying to frame Robert Mueller.

Not all heroes wear capes…

So today I salute you Mr. USA Today reporter who had Jacob Wohl tell his whole Twitter plan for no money, only to get kicked off forever.

I salute you!

I’m in a hipster coffee shop and there is absolute pandemonium, people are screaming and rending their garments, blood is pouring from the ceiling, liberals are gnashing their teeth in agony and wailing, it is truly the end of times - for Jacob Wohl has been banned from Twitter. pic.twitter.com/wi1qmbhpjC

Despite Jacob Wohl's ejection from Twitter, I continue to believe that soon he will become a Real Boy and commit a big-person federal offense all by himself.
