Twitter Inc (TWTR.N) on Sunday said it permanently banned the personal account of Republican US Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene for tweets that repeatedly violated the social media's misinformation policy on COVID-19.

U.S. Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene listens as Rep. Matt Gaetz speaks during a news conference outside the US Capitol in Washington, U.S., July 29, 2021.

The congresswoman from Georgia is the first member of Congress to ever have a Twitter account permanently banned. “Twitter is an enemy to America and can’t handle the truth,” Greene said in a statement on messaging app Telegram, adding that social media platforms “can’t stop the truth from being spread far and wide. Big Tech can’t stop the truth. Communist Democrats can’t stop the truth.”

Greene has come under fire before for remarks on the pandemic. Last June she apologized after comparing COVID-19 mask requirements and vaccinations to the Holocaust that killed 6 million Jews.
