    Twitter on Sunday permanently suspended the personal account of Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene @mtgreenee, a Republican of Georgia.

    The removal of Rep. Greene’s personal account was for “repeated violations of [Twitter’s] COVID-19 misinformation policy, NPR reported

    The New York Times noted that Greene’s account was suspended “after she tweeted on Saturday, falsely, about ‘extremely high amounts of Covid vaccine deaths.’” This was reportedly her fifth strike after a recurring pattern of behavior in violation of Twitter’s multiple strikes rule concerning misleading information about COVID-19.

    Twitter had previously temporarily restricted Greene’s account for sharing misinformation about the 2020 presidential election and Covid-19.

    Ms. Greene’s official Congressional account, @RepMTG, remains active because tweets from that account did not violate the service’s rules.

    Greene’s office said in a statement through her office, per NBC News, ”Twitter is an enemy to America and can’t handle the truth. That’s fine, I’ll show America we don’t need them and it’s time to defeat our enemies.”

    Greene’s account was suspended for one week in August after she tweeted that the vaccines are “failing.” She was warned at the time that the violation of its Covid-19 policy was a fourth “strike.” Greene also has been repeatedly fined for violating mask wearing rules on the floor of the House of Representatives.
