Marjorie Taylor Greene Banned From Social Media As Rand Paul Faces 20 Years In Prison

     Out of all the nonsense Marjorie Taylor Greene has pulled to earn herself a place in the funny farm, only the second thing she is facing consequences for (after her losing committee assignments for threatening Nancy Pelosi) is her COVID-19 misinformation and disinformation on social media, in this case Twitter. Twitter, aside from marking false information when it sees it, also punishes users who continuously violate their terms of service. They give people five strikes; Marjorie is on her fourth strike. The first is a warning without restrictions, the second and third are 12-hour account suspensions, the fourth is a seven-day account suspension, and the fifth is a permanent ban. If she decides to lie about COVID one more time, she loses her Twitter account permanently. Needless to say, if this happens, she will either try to make a scene and stick to using Parler or will face a fate like that of the other politician who got his account suspended, Donald Trump. When Twitter banned him, other social media companies followed suit in order to show that they were just as good at holding people accountable for violations.

     Meanwhile, Rand Paul's response to COVID-19 has been among the most disgraceful acts of any politician in the history of the United States. In the middle of a pandemic, the "doctor" was the one senator out of 100 Democrats and Republicans who refused to wear a mask. He was briefed on COVID, which explains why it was recently revealed that he and his wife, who haven't bought stock in 10 years, bought stock in a major medical company called Gilead and then failed to disclose it for 16 months; that's insider trading, and it's a federal offense punishable by up to 20 years in prison. While he's not busy arguing with NIH Director Anthony Fauci in an attempt to discredit vaccines, he's posting videos on YouTube claiming masks don't work: he got a video removed for that last one. He's lied about COVID and let Kentuckians die to win reelection and fatten his pockets.

     Are these the "Republican values I keep hearing about?"
