On February 10, 2021, Twitter CFO Ned Segal appeared on CNBC's "Squawk Box." CNBC posted the clip that morning under the headline "Trump wouldn't be allowed back on Twitter if he ran for office again, says CFO," time-stamped 9:38 a.m. ET. CNBC's own caption quotes him: "The way our policies work, when you're removed from the platform, you're removed from the platform whether you are a commentator, a CFO or you are a former or public official."
The Daily Wire the same day recorded host Rebecca Quick's question: "Former President Trump was banned. If he came back and ran for office again and was elected president, would you allow him back on the platform?" ABC7, carrying a CNN Business recap by Brian Fung, published the longer answer: "The way our policies work, when you're removed from the platform, you're removed from the platform," he said, "whether you're a commentator, you're a CFO, or you are a former or current public official. Remember, our policies are designed to make sure that people are not inciting violence, and if anybody does that, we have to remove them from the service and our policies don't allow people to come back." NBC Bay Area quoted a further line from the same interview: "He was removed when he was president and there'd be no difference for anybody who's a public official once they've been removed from the service."
The Epoch Times, February 10, 2021 (updated February 11), Jack Phillips: "Trump Won't Be Allowed Back on Twitter Again, CFO Confirms," quoting the same "removed from the platform" language. Fox News, in a February 2021 piece on Twitter's state-affiliated labels, named Segal on Squawk Box and quoted "If you are removed from the platform, you are removed from the platform." This is a documented public act by the then-CFO. It is a defense of a permanent ban, including if Trump were elected again. It is not a newly discovered January 8 order in his name. The company already had the account down. He said it would stay down.
