Twitter suspends Marjorie Taylor Greene, QAnon-backing Republican

Georgia congresswoman is banned for 12 hours after berating her state's election officials and making baseless election fraud claims

Twitter has temporarily suspended the account of the Georgia congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene, who has gained a large following on social media, in part by posting incendiary videos and comments.

Greene, a Republican businesswoman, is the first candidate who expressed support for the baseless, far-right QAnon conspiracy theory to win a US House seat. Greene in November won the race for Georgia's 14th congressional district after her Democratic opponent had dropped out.
