News on Tuesday that Twitter is appointing to its board Tesla CEO Elon Musk — who has questioned the platform’s commitment to free speech and recently bought a 9.2% stake in the company — brought hope to conservatives seeking to have former President Donald Trump allowed back on the social network.

But Twitter on Tuesday said it had no plans to bring back Trump, who was permanently banned from the San Francisco micro-blogging firm’s platform two days after his supporters stormed the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021 in a failed bid to overturn the presidential election. Twitter in a blog post cited “the risk of further incitement of violence.”
