Facebook and Twitter are waging war on the New York City Council’s GOP members, disabling or refusing to verify some of their accounts — including that of a Ukrainian native-turned-national figure, the pols claim.
Brooklyn Republican Councilwoman Inna Vernikov, who was born in Ukraine, says Twitter denied her request for verified status with no specific explanation.
“Welcome to the USSR — United States of Soviet Republic,” Vernikov told The Post.
“The problem is I am a conservative. They’re stifling conservative voices. There is no other reason,” she said.
The conservative politician is well-known for winning a seat on Democratic turf last fall and has been interviewed by numerous national and state media outlets discussing the Russian invasion of Ukraine. She has more than 11,000 Twitter followers and recently met with former President Trump.
