Twitter has reportedly suspended Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene’s personal account for spreading COVID-19 misinformation. 

“We permanently suspended Marjorie Taylor Greene for repeated violations of our COVID-19 misinformation policy,” Twitter said in a statement, according to CNN reporter Donie O’Sullivan. “We’ve been clear that, per our strike system for this policy, we will permanently suspend accounts for repeated violations of the policy.”

The official representative account for Greene, a freshman Republican from Georgia, remains active on Twitter.

Greene responded to Twitter’s decision on GETTR, the conservative social media platform launched by Jason Miller, who was the chief spokesman for former President Donald Trump’s 2016 campaign and a senior advisor for the former president’s 2020 campaign.

“When Maxine Waters can go to the streets and threaten violence on Twitter, Kamala and Ilhan can bail out rioters on Twitter, and Chief spokesman for terrorist IRGC can tweet mourning Soleimani but I get suspended for tweeting VAERS statistics, 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,” she wrote.
