Twitter has permanently suspended the personal account of Georgia’s GOP Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, according to CNN<\/a>.\u00a0The decision came on the heels of a New Year’s Day tweet in which Greene falsely stated that there were \u201cextremely high amounts of Covid vaccine deaths.”<\/p>\n

\u201cWe permanently suspended the account… (@mtgreenee) for repeated violations of our COVID-19 misinformation policy,\u201d a Twitter spokesperson said. \u201cWe\u2019ve been clear that, per our strike system for this policy, we will permanently suspend accounts for repeated violations of the policy.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Since the start of the pandemic, Rep. Greene has consistently posted false assertions about Covid-19, spreading misinformation to over 465,000 followers, according to Slate<\/span><\/a>. Her most recent tweet included a chart of unsubstantiated claims from the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System. It was the last straw for Twitter, which adopted a five-strike Covid-19 misinformation policy last year. Strikes two through four lead to locked accounts, and the fifth results in permanent suspension.<\/p>\n

Though Rep. Greene has permanently lost access to her personal Twitter, she will still be able to use the official congressional account @RepMTG.<\/p>\n

Greene has accused various social media platforms of attempting to “stop the truth,” despite the fact that many of her posts are themselves far from true.\u00a0All of the Covid-19 vaccines available nationwide are scientifically proven to be safe and effective.<\/p>\n

Greene\u2019s suspension falls nearly one year after Twitter banned former President Donald Trump in the wake of the Capitol riot last January.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
