Twitter Permanently Bans Marjorie Taylor Greene’s Personal Account for COVID-19 Misinformation

Twitter has permanently suspended a personal account of Marjorie Taylor Greene over the platform’s COVID-19 misinformation policy.

In a statement to NBC News, Twitter said: “We permanently suspended the account you referenced (@mtgreenee) for repeated violations of our COVID-19 misinformation policy. We’ve been clear that, per our strike system for this policy, we will permanently suspend accounts for repeated violations of the policy.”

The Georgia Representative’s professional Twitter account is still active. 

In response to the suspension, Greene issued the following statement on Telegram: “Maxine Waters can go to the streets and threaten violence on Twitter, Kamala and Ilhan can bail out Black Lives Matter terrorists on Twitter, CNN and the rest of the Democrat Propaganda Media can spread Russia collusion lies, and just yesterday the Chief spokesman for terrorist IRGC can tweet mourning Soleimani, but I get suspended for tweeting VAERS statistics,” she wrote. 

According to Twitter, five or more strikes against the platform’s COVID-19 misinformation policy results in a permanent suspension. Greene was suspended several times last year for violating the company’s policies, most recently in July and August for spreading false information about vaccines.
