Conservative journalist James O'Keefe said Tuesday night his Twitter account has been suspended for identifying a Bernie Sanders staffer he caught on hidden camera favoring Soviet-style gulags and warning of mob violence if Sanders doesn't win the Democratic Party presidential nomination.
O'Keefe said his Twitter account "has been unjustly LOCKED for reporting the publicly available" Federal Election Commission paystub of Sanders field organizer Kyle Jurek.

Twitter told the Project Veritas founder he violated the social media company's rule about "posting private information."
"You may not publish or post other people's private information without their express authorization and permission," Twitter said.
O'Keefe argued the "information we reported is in the public domain, there is nothing 'private' about it."
Twitter said, nevertheless, the account will remain locked until he deletes the offending tweet.
Previously, Project Veritas released video of Jurek, an Iowa field organizer, advocating Soviet-style gulags to "de-Nazify" Trump supporters and acknowledging he's among four organizers in his office who could be described as a Marxist or a communist.
Jurek said Soviet-style gulags would be a good way to carry out necessary "re-education" of Trump supporters if Sanders becomes president.
He also warned that if the Democratic Party doesn't nominate Sanders, the city hosting the convention this summer, Milwaukee, will "burn."
Bernie's a 'legit socialist'
Jurek was asked his honest opinion of where Sanders stands politically.
"I think he's a legit socialist masquerading as a democratic socialist," Jurek said.
"I think that a lot of ... the things that he's suggesting in moving forward takes us further than democratic socialism."

Jurek also said U.S. prisons are "far worse" than the Soviet gulags.
"Like people get raped," he said of U.S. prisons.
"People get f***ing, work 12 hours a day.
People have to go fight fires in California for a dollar.
You know what I mean?
That’s f***ed up. That’s super f***ed up.
Soviet Union didn’t do that s***."
