YouTube has ramped up its censorship practices ahead of Donald Trump’s arraignment Tuesday.
As RSBN prepared for coverage of the arraignment in New York City, YouTube imposed a seven-day ban on the channel.
As a result, the channel won’t be able to livestream.
YouTube cited their “elections misinformation” policies and removed several of RSBN’s videos.

RSBN published this release:
On Monday, RSBN received a notice from YouTube informing us that due to content violating their “elections misinformation” policies, the platform has removed several videos. These include President Trump’s most recent rally in Waco, Texas, his remarks at CPAC, and our exclusive sit-down interview with him at Mar-a-Lago.
YouTube listed the following violations:
- “Claims that the 2020 US Presidential election and 2022 Brazil Presidential election were stolen,”
- “Content that advances false claims that widespread fraud, errors, or glitches occurred in the 2020 U.S. presidential election or the 2022 Brazilian presidential election,”
- Absence of “countervailing views” in the “video, audio, title, or description.”
As a result of these violations, YouTube has also issued a strike on our channel and temporarily banned our account.
“Accordingly, the videos have been removed and a strike has been applied to the channel, and as a result, uploads and live streams by your account are suspended for a week. You can read more about our strikes system here,” a YouTube representative told RSBN.
Conveniently, YouTube’s Orwellian censorship practices have returned just one day before President Trump is arraigned in a gross weaponization of the justice system. Rather than allowing RSBN to show a countervailing view to the mainstream media’s version of the arraignment, they are simply shutting down our efforts. Again, they are leaving millions of Americans voiceless in the face of tyranny.
However, this is not our first rodeo. RSBN is fully prepared to move full steam ahead with Tuesday’s all-day live coverage of pro-Trump protests in Manhattan and President Trump’s press conference at Mar-a-Lago.
RSBN will provide live coverage of President Trump’s arraignment and his Mar-a-Lago press conference on their Rumble channel.
