Who is Marjorie Taylor Greene and is she married?
MARJORIE Taylor Greene was suspended from Twitter for 12 hours after urging Donald Trump supporters to “mobilize” due to alleged attacks on their liberties.
The GOP lawmaker, who represents Georgia’s 14th congressional district, also threatened to impeach Joe Biden on his first day in office. Let’s find out more about the Republican.
Who is Marjorie Taylor Greene?
Marjorie Taylor Greene serves in the House of Representatives for Georgia’s 14th congressional district.
After taking office on January 3 2021, the 46-year-old was one of the 139 representatives who challenged the results of the 2020 presidential election.
Greene became nationally known for publicly supporting the far-right QAnon conspiracy theory, which is based on unfounded claims of a “deep state” apparatus of political and business leaders and celebrities who are pedophiles and working against President Trump.
In a video posted online several years ago, Greene claimed “Q is a patriot,” referring to the supposed operative at QAnon’s center.
QAnon believers think that Trump is saving them from a cult of pedophiles and cannibals, and they have been tied to some violent crimes.
She has since tried to distance herself from the conspiracy theory, telling Fox News that it does not “represent” her and “wasn’t part of my campaign”.
President Donald Trump has previously called Greene a “future Republican star” – which bolstered her support ahead of her comprehensive victory in the rural, staunch Republican district.

They are vice president and president of Taylor Commercial, a construction company based in Alpharetta.
Greene has recently moved to Rome, located in the state’s 14th congressional district.

Why was Marjorie Taylor Greene’s Twitter account suspended?
Marjorie Taylor Greene was suspended from Twitter for tweeting at Trump supporters to “mobilize” due to recent “attacks on their liberties.”
On Saturday, Greene tweeted: “I encourage all Americans, not just the 75 million people who voted for President Trump, to mobilize and make your voices heard in opposition to these attacks on our liberties.”
The tweet was deleted two hours after it was sent, but it was archived by news outlet ProPublica.
Greene released a statement regarding her suspension, blaming “big tech” for silencing elected officials.
Prior to that tweet, she had also posted a photo that read: “END ABORTION IN AMERICA” and jabbed at Republicans for their loss in the Georgia election.
Greene tweeted: “Morons like you are responsible for losing GA’s 2 Republican Senate seats.
“You ran a Nov 3rd election that was stolen bc you idiots at the SOS mailed out millions of absentee ballots to any one and everyone while GA was an open state. Then you counted ballots on Dominion..”
The tweet was flagged for election fraud and could not be liked, retweeted, or replied to due to “risk of violence” according to Twitter.
The ban lasted 12 hours.
A Twitter spokesperson confirmed to Business Insider that Greene’s account was “locked out for multiple violations” of its civic integrity policy.
