The rapid growth in followers comes after a weekend of restricted activity for “Unplanned” and Abby Johnson.
It all started Sunday after Johnson announced on Twitter that she wanted share information about her ministry with all of the new followers on the page.
With all of my new followers, I thought I would make an intro for my ministry, @ATTWNministry. We get abortion workers out of abortion clinics, get them new jobs, on a path to healing and then SHUT DOWN their former clinics. More info at https://t.co/8zoJ0MoOdy.

Within just a few hours, Johnson tweeted screen shots showing the “Unplanned” account had lost virtually all of its followers, dropping from well over 100,000 to just 261 with no explanation.
Twitter “accidentally” suspended the “Unplanned” Movie account—something many pro-lifers called a low blow. After it was up and running again, it took several hours and for some, days, to be able to follow the movie page. Many reported the social platform had made it impossible for them to follow the page, or it immediately kicked them off as followers once they hit the little blue button.
@UnplannedMovie follower count is going crazy! 😱 Won’t let me follow! Keeps unfollowing me! 😡 #unplannedmovie #unplanned

According to Twitter, “it takes awhile for a temporarily banned account to come fully online after being re-instated.”
“I think it’s outrageous! I’ve never experienced anything like this in my life,” Ashley Bratcher, the “Unplanned” actress who plays Abby Johnson in the film, told “Fox & Friends” Monday morning. “I think it’s incredibly suspicious given that we were suspended, then reinstated, then we lost followers, then we have people saying they can’t follow, then my own account was unfollowed from the movie. I couldn’t even follow my own movie.”
Despite several hurdles—both socially and politically, nothing could keep Abby’s story from being shared with the world.
Her goal is to “expose the most violent business in human history.” And now she has a platform, a voice, and more followers than said business to do so.
I have a feeling God is up to something here friends. Join me in continued prayers for the unborn, and follow Abby and “Unplanned” the movie on Twitter today!
