Twitter released a statement on January 2 that 'Marjorie Taylor Greene's personal account ( @mtgreenee ) has been suspended.'

Mr Green in the House of Representatives of belonging Republican who took office on January 3, 2021,

Pizageto and Q Anon is also known as the proponents of conspiracy theories, such as. He had his Twitter account suspended for 12 hours in January, shortly after taking office, due to misinformation about the election, and was repeatedly suspended for vaccine tweets in July and August.

Mr. Green also added unverified data accumulated decades ago in the US Government's Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS) on January 1, 2022 as data on 'mass death from the new coronavirus vaccine.' Inappropriately quoted, this is the fifth time Twitter has suspended his account. Twitter's 'Misleading Information Policy on COVID-19' states that every time you violate the policy, the sanctions will be heavier and your account will be permanently suspended for 'more than 5 strikes'.

In response to these repeated policy violations, Twitter spokeswoman Katie Rosborough said, 'We will permanently perpetuate accounts that violate the policy in our'Misleading Information Policy on COVID-19'. I have made it clear that it will stop. '

According to Twitter, complaints have been accepted for this suspension, and the disposition may be canceled if the posting that violates the policy is proved to be true. However, a spokeswoman for the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), which manages VAERS, told The New York Times: 'Vaccines generally reported that vaccines caused adverse events and illness. , Or can't be used to determine if it contributed to its occurrence. '

The account with the authentication badge (@RepMTG ) held by Mr. Green as a member of the Diet is different from the personal account suspended this time, so it is valid even at the time of writing the article. In response to this measure, Mr. Green wrote in Telegram, a messaging app developed in Russia, 'Twitter is an enemy of the United States, so I can not deal with the truth. But no problem. I need such a thing in the United States. I'll show you that it's not there and that it's time to defeat the enemy. '
