Usa: fake news on Covid, Twitter blocks a deputy account

(ANSA) – ROME, JANUARY 03 – Twitter has permanently suspended the personal account of US deputy Marjorie Taylor Greene for having violated its rules against disinformation on Covid several times. The BBC reports it. The Republican congresswoman from Georgia, who had already been suspended four times, attacked Twitter as an “enemy of America”.

“Social media platforms cannot prevent the truth from spreading far and wide,” he attacked in a long post on Telegram accusing Twitter and accusing Twitter of helping unidentified enemies in “a communist revolution”.

The final suspension came after the 47-year-old congresswoman tweeted on Saturday that there had been a high number of vaccine-related deaths in the United States. A false and unproven data. His official congressional account remains active.

Since his election in 2020, Greene has become one of Washington’s most controversial politicians. In the past linked to the conspiracy group QAnon, she has also supported former President Donald Trump’s allegations of alleged fraud in the last elections of 2020. She has often questioned the effectiveness of vaccines and was fined for refusing to follow the guidelines anti-Covid in Congress, including those related to the use of the mask. (HANDLE).
