A day after Twitter permanently suspended Georgia Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene’s personal account, Facebook has blocked the Republican congresswoman from posting or commenting for 24 hours. According to a Gab post from Greene, the Facebook ban came after a previous post that the site said could cause physical harm, in violation of its Community Standards guidelines. Meanwhile, Twitter cited the representative’s “repeated” violations to its COVID-19 misinformation policy in its decision to suspend her account.
