Ryan Fecteau, the Democratic president of the Main Representatives Chamber, eliminated his account X at dawn on Thursday, a few days later censor republican representative Laurel Libby.
Libby was censored by the democratic majority on Tuesday night for a recent publication of social networks that indicates that a Transgender high school athlete He won a girl competition. The censorship resolution approved by a 75-70 vote and revoked the speech and vote privileges of Libby.
Fecteau said during an audience that Libby’s rights would not be restored until he apologized, but said that night that he would not apologize.
Libby pointed out that Fecteau’s account had been deactivated in an X Post on Thursday.
“Apparently, the Speaker of the Chamber of Maine did not like to hear the voices of the people … The president of the House of Representatives, Ryan Fecteau, has eliminated his X account less than 48 hours after the attempt of most of the Democrats to cancel me,” Libby wrote with a capture of capturing his eliminated account page.

Fecteau left his Facebook and Bluesky accounts active, but he has not addressed the situation with Libby or the deactivation of his account. Many of their publications on these platforms have been flooded with comments from those who criticize their decision to censor Libby.
“You are a coward. A coward, without thorns, insensitive, who obviously hates girls,” said a user in Fecteau’s last Facebook post.
“While they squeak that Trump and Republicans are Nazis and want a dictatorship, silence to a representative to express the valid concerns of their constituent. Highlighting the usual hypocrisy of the Democrats,” said another Facebook user.
Fecteau has served in his role as speaker at Maine’s house since 2020. At the time of his election as a speaker in December 2020, Fecteau was the youngest state speaker in the United States at the age of 28 and the first openly gay person to serve as a speaker of Maine’s house.
How the transgender in sports changed the 2024 elections and lit a national counterculture
On Tuesday, Fecteau approved Libby censorship based on the premise that its publication on social networks about the transgender athlete identified a minor with a photo and included the name of the athlete.
The Libby position that identified the Trans athlete arrived last Sunday when he pointed out that a transgender athletics had taken first place in a Maine pole jumping competition after competing when he was a child a year earlier.

“It is a notable double standard, since there are public photos of this individual in many places in social networks and even some published by his school, and, therefore, yes, this publication went viral, but this was an individual who participated in a public event, who publicly stood up on a podium and accepted a championship medal that belonged to the girls in the second place,” Libby told Fox News Digital.
During the vote on Tuesday, Libby also approached the floor of the camera with a seven -page prepared speech about the importance of protecting the sports of girls and women from transgender inclusion. However, throughout the night, his microphone was constantly turned off when he tried to pronounce that speech.
“I was completely incapable, from my first prayer, to give a word, before the other side closed me,” Libby said, adding that I had never seen anything like that during his mandate in the Maine Legislature.
The revelation of Libby of the transgender athlete lit the national conversation and the coverage of the State’s policy on trans inclusion after Maine announced that he would not comply with the recent executive order of “No Men in Women’s Sports” of President Donald Trump.
Trump then promised to cut funds to the State for refusing to follow his order during a meeting last week of governors at the White House.
On Friday, Mills’s office responded with a statement that threatened legal actions against the Trump administration if it retained federal state funds. Then, Trump and Mills shot verbally in the White House during a bipartisan meeting of governors.
Only a few hours after that interaction, the United States Department of Education announced that it would be investigating the State to allow transgender athletes to compete in sports of girls and possible violations of title IX.
