Marjorie Taylor Greene has permanently been suspended from Twitter for repeatedly posting COVID-19 misinformation

Greene was suspended for good on Saturday, January 1, after earning an impressive five strikes for violating Twitter’s COVID misinformation policy. Her last offense, as reported by the New York Times: posting about “extremely high amounts of COVID-vaccine deaths” that, coincidentally, don’t exist. Previous strikes reportedly included a tweet saying that vaccines were “failing” and another tweet declaring that COVID-19 wasn’t life-threatening to people under 65 and not obese.
Greene responded on Sunday, January 2, via her personal account on Telegram, an alternate platform. After opening by saying the quiet part out loud and attacking Black female politicians — “Maxine Waters can go to the streets and threaten violence on Twitter, Kamala and Ilhan can bail out Black Lives Matter terrorists on Twitter” — Greene wrote, “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.
Her personal account may be gone, but it’s not all good news. Representative Greene’s official account is still up, and, according to Twitter, has not violated its COVID-misinformation policy. And, despite all of this — the vaccine misinformation, the reported $80,000 fine she incurred for refusing to wear a mask on the House floor, not to mention the lies about voter fraud, racist attacks against her colleagues, and QAnon affiliation — she’s still a congresswoman.
