Far-right Donald Trump ally Laura Loomer was suspended from Elon Musk's social media site X after spending hours attacking him for not being a true MAGA fan.
Musk began by telling the world to ignore her, but it didn't take long for Loomer to be suspended for 12 hours, claiming she broke the X terms of service.
Furious MAGA allies demanded to know what rule she broke.

The behavioral science and politics podcast "The Shallow State" posted, "THIS is a megalomaniac. We'll discuss this as part of our next edition of Banters, a little later today. In a tweet at midnight, Musk referred to the people he slammed as 'subtards.' Here's the message from Loomer's newly derailed account."
All legal analyst Aaron Parnas could do was burst out laughing via text.
It became part of commentator and legal analyst Jennifer Taub's morning rundown as well. "Love your news served with an extra helping of crazy town?"
"There are rules on X?" asked MSNBC host Katie Phang.
Others mocked Musk for his "free speech" promises while suspending someone's free speech on his platform.
Ultimately, even Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) stepped in to defend Musk's opinions on immigration.
"Good gracious, I came out of Christmas bliss to see arguments about American labor vs H1-B imported labor and MAGA split over this issue. Good, that means everyone is engaged in saving this country. Here is some tough reality for some of you: There are some big MAGA voices," she wrote.
One of the debates was over a new hire of pro-immigration advocate, Sriram Krishnan.
Tom Wellborn of "The Political Mix" explained that the hire "ignited backlash from extremists like Laura Loomer, exposing the fault lines between anti-immigrant zealots and corporate elites who depend on foreign talent to stay competitive. MAGA’s contradictions are imploding."
Musk moved to the U.S. in 1995 under the guise that he was going to attend Stanford University. However, Musk never enrolled in his graduate studies program there. The Washington Post reported in October that the move meant Musk was working illegally in the U.S. for a time. Investors in his first company were concerned that he would be deported at any moment.
