Twitter confirmed on Sunday morning that it banned one of Greene’s two verified accounts, citing “repeated violations of [its] COVID-19 misinformation policy.”
The account Greene uses as a Member of Congress remains active.
As of this article’s publication, TikTok has yet to explain why it booted Fitton from its platform. A notice on his now scrubbed profile reads, “This account was banned due to multiple Community Guidelines violations.”
Fitton’s reaction on Instagram was swift and unequivocal.
Meanwhile, Greene seemed more ambivalent about Twitter’s condemnation, yet she reiterated her commitment to speak her mind — no matter the consequences.
Per CBS News:
Greene responded on her Gettr account, calling Twitter “an enemy to American and can’t handle the truth. That’s fine, I’ll show America we don’t need them and it’s time to defeat our enemies.”
Greene’s personal account had more than 465,000 followers. This is not the first time it has been temporarily suspended. In July, Greene received a 12-hour ban after the social media platform accused her of spreading COVID-19 misinformation. The congresswoman responded on Facebook, saying “Free Speech is under attack.”
…
Last February, the House of Representatives decided to strip Greene of her committee assignments due to her past harmful remarks about violence against Democrats. The vote was 230-199, with 11 Republicans joining all Democrats. Committees are where bills are written, so removing her from any committees decreases her influence on legislation within Congress.
So, what do you think? Is free speech under attack or do tech giants have the right, as private companies, to police content as they see fit? As always, tell us in the comments below!

Free speech is under attack. She was suspended in August for saying the COVID vaccines were not effective. Clearly, they are not effective. Both Fauci and Gates have also stated the vaccines have not worked like they hoped and said we need to look for a better solution.
These social platforms are banning people the don’t like.

Twitter has a new ruthless hater of all things, truth!
God has said, “It isn’t supposed to be easy.”
We have to try harder. Success will come.
You are part of the Great Suppression, and what you are doing is evil. You are attacking free speech, a foundation of our country. Go to China or change your censoring! Shame on you for hating America’s laws and people!
Judicial Watch is this country’s most important remaining force in promoting justice in the dirty climate of politics. They offer even consideration of both parties without political bias although they favor a conservative attitude.They are a 501c3 IRS non-profit and are always proving honest reference information for our legislators. Their use of FOIA law and their tireless lawyers are our last bastion for discovery of truth in the political swamp. Support them if possible with your tax favored donations.
I would like to have the names of the 11Republicans who voted to remove Taylor Green from her committee position. Thanks
