X suspended the campaign account of Ahmed Moor, a Gaza-born, Philadelphia-raised Palestinian American who announced a bid for a Pennsylvania US Senate seat to challenge John Fetterman. Middle East Eye reported the suspension on Wednesday or Thursday, and the account is @moorforpa. Moor wrote on his personal X account that the campaign account had been suspended and that the move showed the campaign was a threat, urging supporters to retweet and donate. Middle East Eye reported that the campaign account had over 33,000 followers within about 72 hours of launch. Moor's campaign tagline is "Stop Funding Wars. Start Funding Pennsylvania." He said he is running to end the war in Iran and to promote a platform of free healthcare, free childcare and affordable housing, and he called for accountability for genocide, for ICE and for corruption, and for protection of civil liberties. Fetterman has not announced whether he will run again in 2028. Middle East Eye reported that Fetterman has sometimes voted with Republicans on Israel and the war on Iran, and that he has called Israel a "special ally" while opposing campus protests calling for an end to Israel's genocide in Gaza. Middle East Eye reached out to Moor's campaign, and the article gives no reason for the suspension and no response from X, which no longer maintains an active press email account.
