Twitter permanently suspended Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene’s personal account Sunday for violating its COVID-19 misinformation policies.

Twitter suspended Greene’s account after she Tweeted Saturday about “extremely high amounts of Covid vaccine deaths,” per the New York Times. In her tweet, she included a chart with raw, unverified data from a government database called the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System.

Twitter said that Greene had a fifth “strike,” meaning that her account won’t be restored. She received her fourth strike in August after she posted that vaccines were “failing.” Less than a month before that, she received her third strike when she tweeted that Covid was not dangerous and vaccines shouldn’t be mandated.

Greene’s official Congressional account remains intact.

“We’ve been clear that, per our strike system for this policy, we will permanently suspend accounts for repeated violations of the policy,” Katie Rosborough, a Twitter spokeswoman, said in a statement.

The company allows accounts to appeal and could potentially reverse the suspension if the post in question is proven factual.

On Telegram, Greene called Twitter an “enemy to America” that “can’t handle the truth.”
