ICE’s Twitter account is once again operational. According to a Twitter spokesperson, it appears that a backend issue was responsible for the account going down.
ORIGINAL STORY BELOW:
The Twitter account for the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement was suddenly removed from Twitter, Thursday afternoon, and replaced by a message saying the account no longer exists.
Previously, the account featured a bio that read, “We focus on preventing terrorism, immigration enforcement and combating transnational crime.”
Its targeting of immigrants for deportation has made it despised by many, and the campaign slogan �Abolish ICE� is frequently seen at anti-government protests.
Twitter has yet to respond to any media inquiry.

Twitter is a private corporation, and has no legal duty to off anyone an account.
I thought ice would be abolished by global warming.
Maybe twitter took it down as part of the “Trump Accountability Project”?
