To remove a message on Discord using Python, you can use the Discord.py library. Here's an example code snippet:

import discord
from discord.ext import commands

TOKEN = 'your_token_here'

bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix='!')

@bot.command()
async def delete(ctx, message_id):
    message = await ctx.channel.fetch_message(message_id)
    await message.delete()

bot.run(TOKEN)

This code defines a command delete that takes a message ID as input and deletes the corresponding message from the current channel. You can run this command by typing !delete message_id in a channel where the bot is present.

Note that you need to replace 'your_token_here' with your own bot token, which you can obtain from the Discord Developer Portal. Also, make sure you have the required permissions (e.g. Manage Messages) to delete messages in the channel.
