Recently, resistance darlings Ed and Brian Krassenstein deactivated their Twitter accounts, but sadly it was just a stunt that lasted only five hours.

This, however, doesn’t appear to be a stunt. What will they do if they can’t respond to every single one of President Trump’s tweets? It’s Armageddon!

NEW: Twitter has permanently banned prominent anti-Trump brothers Brian and Ed Krassenstein, alleging that two of the biggest stars of Resistance Twitter had broken the site’s rules about operating fake accounts and purchasing fake interactions https://t.co/9nTiSzzrsG — Yashar Ali ?

The Daily Beast reports:

Twitter has permanently banned prominent anti-Trump brothers Brian and Ed Krassenstein, alleging that two of the biggest stars of #Resistance Twitter had broken the site’s rules about operating fake accounts and purchasing fake interactions with their accounts. “The Twitter Rules apply to everyone,” a Twitter spokesperson said in a statement. “Operating multiple fake accounts and purchasing account interactions are strictly prohibited. Engaging in these behaviors will result in permanent suspension from the service.”

2. Reached by phone, the other Krassenstein brother, @kenklippenstein, who has been locked in a feud with his brothers for over a decade, told me he only had one thing to say: BOOM! pic.twitter.com/sdpFsHLFFm — Yashar Ali ? (@yashar) May 23, 2019

I also learned recently that the Krassensteins took down that video of them singing about Mueller and loving the FBI 🙁 — Max Tani (@maxwelltani) May 23, 2019

Aw … after writing the children’s book where “Robert Moral” was the bare-chested superhero?

So the Krassensteins were real? Go figure. — Peter Cook (@_Peter_Cook) May 24, 2019

Say whatever you want about those dumb goofs but they ARE real https://t.co/wLfzsGtXge — Stephen Miller (@redsteeze) May 23, 2019

And spectacular? — Lord Acton-A-Fool (@LordActonAFool) May 23, 2019

I guess they'll have to fire that Bieber fan club back up — eric (@eriContrarian) May 24, 2019

They will be… Not missed — have mercy ✊???? (@blabbercrumb) May 23, 2019

WAIT! Is @kenklippenstein the winner of Twitter Thrones? — Flaming Uterus ? (@daisygirlmg) May 23, 2019

Now ban the rest of the Trump reply guys — Jeremy Barr (@jeremymbarr) May 23, 2019

NOOOOOOOOOO

THEY WERE ENTERTAINING MORONS — Roller Gator (@gator_roller) May 23, 2019

Anyone who didn't know that they'd already been indicted before really hadn't done their homework. I blocked them a year ago. — Elizabeth C. McLaughlin (@ECMcLaughlin) May 23, 2019

It's about time the grift brothers are gone. — Shirley's Galaxy of Cats ??? (@ShirleysGalaxy) May 23, 2019

It’s going to be so strange looking at Trump’s tweets and not seeing the muted replies at the very top. — Ken Adams (@Elohssa412) May 23, 2019

Welp, there goes the response threads to EVERY SINGLE Trump tweet we all looked forward to — Exavier Pope (@exavierpope) May 24, 2019

They are probably losing their minds! Twitter is all they had! #KarmaIsAwesome — J. Elizabeth (@LuvDanceDream) May 24, 2019

They just need to hire Avenatti to get them out of this. LOL. — Louche Libertine (@WitStream1) May 23, 2019

Tfw you get banned from Twitter pic.twitter.com/TCn2D4jMfB — Ben McDonald (@Bmac0507) May 24, 2019

RIP the Krassenstein bros. They are with Merrick Garland now. pic.twitter.com/zqcdxgKCix — Matt’s Idea Shop (@MattsIdeaShop) May 24, 2019

If one Krassenstein gets banned, does the other one feel his pain? — Stephen Miller (@redsteeze) May 23, 2019

How about not calling them heroes of the resistance, Daily Beast. I’m guessing fair amount of resistance had them blocked or muted. — Megan LeBlanc (@msmeganl) May 23, 2019

Yup. — Casper Dean (@PencesAngryEyes) May 23, 2019

Many of us have had them blocked. They're the definition of nuisance. — Denise Louis ? (@birdyluisa) May 24, 2019

Not sure what I'm going to do, I got all my news from the Krassensteins — Zack Bornstein (@ZackBornstein) May 24, 2019

So no more tag team marathon replies to Trump tweets — Laura Lee Fulmer (@lauraleefulmer) May 24, 2019

Twitter gets it right sometimes — David (@eosman223) May 24, 2019

Can we let this godawful joke die now please — Ken Klippenstein (@kenklippenstein) May 23, 2019

We’re just getting started baby — Calvin (@calvinstowell) May 24, 2019

This is funny. But to be honest, as a conservative, I would rather have all the voices on here so decisions could be made about which voice we would choose to follow. — Caleb Box (@calebbox) May 24, 2019

True … but if Twitter is going to actually abide by its own rules now, that’s a start.
