Twitter on Sunday temporarily suspended the account of Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, the Republican U.S. Congresswoman from Georgia who has expressed racist views and support for QAnon conspiracy theories online.

Greene's account was suspended “without explanation," she said in a statement, while also condemning big tech companies for “silencing” conservative views.

The 46-year-old businesswoman and political newcomer was elected to represent Georgia’s 14th District in November. She's gained large followings on social media in part by posting incendiary videos and comments and has also embraced QAnon, a far-right U.S. conspiracy theory centered around the debunked belief that President Donald Trump is waging a secret campaign against enemies in the “deep state” and a child sex trafficking ring they say is linked to Democrats.

Before noon Sunday, Greene posted a clip from an interview with a local news outlet in which she condemned Georgia election officials and expressed support for debunked theories claiming that voting machines, absentee ballots and other issues led to widespread fraud in the state during the presidential election.

1. If you are on twitter, please follow her and boebert. Let's keep the pressure up get them banned

[catrose]

3. Isn't Boebert off until after the inauguration? Of course, if she's back after that, we should make

the effort.

4. i looked her up on twitter the other day--she was still on.

she was off for a minute but they let her back on

[catrose]

2. My only regret is that it's only 12 hours

[Talitha]

5. "a child sex trafficking ring they say is linked to Democrats."

The Repugs project.

Let that sink in for a minute.....

[Mr.Bill]

7. Just curious...

Have they ever named one victim of this sex trafficking ring?

15. Where are the TV cameras interviewing weeping parents of all the missing children?

I'm puzzled!

6. This 12 hours 'break' is bullshit. This suspension should be permanent.

[Bernardo de La Paz]

11. Typically it is the longer of 12 hours or until the user removes the offending post. . . . nt

8. Her next suspension will be longer, or permanent

She will make other claims once they restore her account and she will lose it again, for longer.
I think they have a 3 strike policy, so after the third offence she should be banned from Twitter.

9. "conservative views"

There's no "views" on this.

It's a lie. And a dangerous one at that.

12. There is nothing more humorous

Than a group that has had the ear of the world for four years now complaining that they cannot have the ear of the world anymore. The rethugs have had plenty of air time and they used it. Now, no one wants to hear that crap anymore and they want to cry 'censorship'? Hilarious! (I wonder just what kind of mentality feels that everyone has to read their crap whether we want to or not? Sounds... fascist...)

why isn't she being sanctioned in the Congress?

[twodogsbarking]

13. Twitter has higher standards

than Congress. Ponder that.

[Dem forever]

14. Yahoo in Congress

She needs to be banned for good. Just a non mask wearing idiot on the floor of Congress. The area she represents are 80% like her. Just a bunch of uneducated idiots that follow am radio. Flat earth people who live in trailers.
