Twitter stated that it is closing Greene’s personal account-@mtgreenee-for repeated violations of its COVID misinformation policy. She can still access her official Twitter account, which is a personal account that @RepMTG.Greene uses more frequently.

It added: “We have made it clear that in accordance with our strike system against this policy, we will permanently suspend accounts that have repeatedly violated the policy,” it added. Twitter did not specify what Green said should be punished.

Green fought back after being suspended and said in a Telegram statement that Twitter is “the enemy of the United States and cannot handle the truth. It doesn’t matter, I will tell the United States that we don’t need them, it’s time to defeat our enemy.”

Twitter’s COVID misinformation provided police employees with a strike system that gradually escalated sanctions for violations.

For example, one strike was inconclusive; three strikes resulted in an account lockout for 12 hours, and five strikes resulted in permanent suspension.

Before the permanent suspension, Twitter had sanctioned Green.

After she tweeted that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration should not approve the COVID vaccine, her account was suspended for a week in August because they “failed” to slow the spread of the virus.

On Saturday, she said on Twitter that the United States had taken vaccine-related deaths seriously in the past, but now “a lot of COVID vaccine deaths have been ignored and the government’s mandatory vaccination requirements have increased.”

A year ago, after Trump’s supporters rioted in the U.S. Capitol on January 6, Twitter barred Trump from accessing the platform. Trump’s supporters claimed that he had been deprived of his views on Joe Biden. victory.

Prior to Oppenheimer, Christopher collaborated mostly with Warner Bros before having a fallout post the debacle of Tenet (2020).

Warner Bros then went on to produce Greta Gerwig’s musical satire Barbie, which clashed with Oppenheimer at the box office and even outperformed it globally. Warner Bros offered Christopher a cheque for the fees he waived off for helming Tenet during the pandemic. While Christopher graciously accepted the belated remuneration, he still went on to pitch his next to Warner Bros.
