The cause was a wave of unbelievably vicious online harassment directed at Ghostbusters actress Leslie Jones - harassment that, according to most observers, was kicked off by Milo highlighting Jones’s account to his followers. Late on Tuesday night, the social media platform announced that Yiannopoulos had been permanently removed from their service. What was the first thing he said? “I just got banned from Twitter!” He kicked off his appearance at the party with a speech, which began with a minor striptease: He tore off a bulletproof vest, revealing a tight-fitting T-shirt emblazoned with a rainbow Uzi and the slogan “we shoot back” (Milo is gay, and fairly militant about it). CLEVELAND - Milo Yiannopoulos, the Breitbart Tech editor and fringe right provocateur, threw a party at a venue near last night’s Republican National Convention.
