The Babylon Bee’s Twitter account was reinstated on Friday after it had been suspended on the platform earlier this year, in the latest dramatic move under new owner Elon Musk. The Bee, which often lampoons progressive figures and culture, had its account suspended under previous Twitter leadership for not removing a tweet about Health and Human Services assistant secretary Dr. Rachel Levine that was deemed “hateful conduct.” The Bee published a joke news entry congratulating the medical official on being awarded its “Man of the Year” award for 2022; Levine identifies as a transgender female.
