Who is Marjorie Taylor Greene?

Marjorie Taylor Greene, 47, born in Milledgeville, Georgia in 1974.

She graduated from the University of Georgia in 1996 with a Bachelor of Business Administration.

Greene, also known as MTG, is an American politician and businesswoman.

Before being elected as U.S. representative for Georgia’s 14th congressional district in 2021, she used to be a part-time coach at an Alpharetta CrossFit gym.

In 2013, she co-founded a CrossFit gym in Alpharetta, along with Travis Mayer, a CrossFit athlete. However, she left the business in early 2017.

In 2016, Greene became politically engaged during the Republican presidential primaries. 

Greene is well known for her support of former President Trump and conspiracy theory movement, QAnon.

Last year, Greene tweeted that there was “MASS voter fraud on a scale that should terrify every American regardless of political party,” in regard to the claim that the 2020 presidential election was stolen from Trump.

Why was her Twitter suspended?

No stranger to being booted by the social media platform, Twitter, Greene’s account was permanently suspended on January 2, 2022.

The politician’s controversial tweets via her personal Twitter account, @mtgreenee were flagged multiple times before.

For instance, on August 9, 2021, Greene tweeted that the Food and Drug Administration “should not approve the covid vaccines,” to which Twitter temporarily blocked her account and labeled the tweet as misleading.

However, on January 2, 2022, her account was officially, permanently suspended “for repeated violations of our COVID-19 misinformation policy,” Twitter spokesperson said.

Her congressional account @RepMTG, however, remains active.
