Sen. Steve Daines (R-MT) was locked out of his Twitter account after he changed his profile photo to an image of a hunting trip with his wife.
The post violated Twitter rules against “graphic violence or adult content in profile images,” according to a notice from the social media company shared by Daines spokeswoman Rachel Dumke. “We consider graphic violence to be any form of gory media related to death, serious injury, violence, or surgical procedures,” the notice continued.
