U.S. Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R)
Despite her personal account being banned from the platform, Georgia representative Taylor Greene posted on her government Twitter “Prepare for blue check mark full scale meltdown after @elonmusk seals the deal and I should get my personal Twitter account restored.”
Taylor Green’s twitter accountwas banned in January for repeatedly posting vaccine misinformation, including her saying the vaccine led to “extremely high amounts of Covid vaccine deaths,” which has long been proved untrue. Taylor Green ran afoul of Twitter’s five-strike system, which ups the severity of punishment for each subsequent strike against the account.
She has used her professional account much in the same way as her personal, and has devoted time toattacking Twitter for her ban.
She likely has bigger things to worry about than her Twitter account. She has been questioned about her involvement in the Jan. 6 insurrection, which could potentially limit her ability to run for reelection. Of course, giving her the personal account back might help her increase the reach and spread of her campaign ads.
