"We permanently suspended [@mtgreenee] for repeated violations of our COVID-19 misinformation policy," a spokesperson wrote. "We’ve been clear that, per our strike system for this policy, we will permanently suspend accounts for repeated violations of the policy."

Greene, a first-term pro-Trump congresswoman, who was stripped of her committee positions in February 2021 over her past "conspiracy theories," has come under fire since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic for her vocal opinions on mitigation efforts.

In a lengthy statement after her account's removal, Greene blasted the tech giant.

"Twitter is an enemy to America and can't handle the truth," she said. "That's fine, I'll show America we don't need them and it's time to defeat our enemies. They can't successfully complete a Communist revolution when people tell the truth."

Greene added, "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 I stand with the truth and the people. We will overcome!"

However, Greene's professional Twitter appears to remains active at this time.
