X suspends campaign account of Palestinian American running for US Senate

A Palestinian American who launched his bid for a Senate seat to represent Pennsylvania in the 2028 election has had his campaign account suspended by the social media platform X.

The account, @moorforpa, belongs to Gaza-born, Philadelphia-raised Ahmed Moor, who said this week he wants to topple hardline pro-Israel Senator John Fetterman when he's up for re-election in two years.

Fetterman has not announced whether he plans to run again.

"FRIENDS! It's official! We're a threat," Moor wrote on his personal X account on Wednesday. "They've suspended the campaign account. Help us maintain the momentum by retweeting and please consider donating."
