I have tried to find it but get swamped by hits on news reports of Twitter’s action. Where is the actual ‘banned’ video?

Thanks!

Thanks, but that’s not the one I was looking for.

I thought there was one from January 6 that was taken down and also prompted them to suspend his account for 12 hours.

I believe that is the one that did it. It may not seem totally out of character, but at that moment, it was simply going to encourage more violence and they banned him for awhile because of it.
