I’m sorry, the reason that I’m bringing up Trump is not whataboutism. But to point out that Biden was not in government, there was no clear expectation that he would ever be in government again, and that if Twitter made its decisions about those tweets based on political leverage, then they would have left the tweets up instead of removing them.

Things can still have a chilling effect even if someone is not literally in government right now.
Such as, for example, if the team making the requests is the political campaign of a former vice president, who is currently running for president.
No matter what bad things you think other people have done, it does not invalidate this point.
If your next statement is something of the effect of "Well what about this other thing that this other politician did!" in any way or reference what so ever, I am just going to take that as you admitting that you are acting in bad faith.
