Twitter has marked two tweets from Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene as violating their rules on “hateful conduct,” after critcising Dr Rachel Levine for promoting trans surgeries for kids.
As Valiant News reported, Levine, the most prominent trans official in the current administration, argued that the government must “affirm,” “support” and “empower” transgender youth when it comes to transitioning in an interview with MSNBC.
The four-star admiral said that they don’t want to “limit their participation in activities and sports, and even eliminate their ability to get gender-affirmation treatment in their state,” as many Republican legislators at the state level are moving towards.
Rep. Greene, one of the most prominent supporters of the America First agenda in conference, posted on Twitter mocking and condemning the comments from Levine in a tongue-in-cheek fashion.
“We must do everything we can to prevent Dr. Dick Levine’s pre-teen #WeenieChop,” Greene said in the first tweet.
“Now that I think about it. As Dr. Dick Levine advocates for ‘gender affirming care’ for minors, has he undergone the #WeenieChop himself? Or is he just pushing this on children?” Greene asked in her second post.
Now that I think about it.
As Dr. Dick Levine advocates for “gender affirming care” for minors, has he undergone the #WeenieChop himself?
Or is he just pushing this on children?

However, within two hours of posting the successive tweets, Twitter declared via a notice posted on them that Greene had “violated the Twitter rules about hateful conduct,” but did not take the tweets down, as they determined that “it may be in the public’s interest for the [tweets] to remain accessible.” Twitter repeated the standard tag in a statement to Axios.
Valiant News reached out to Twitter for comment, and asked which specific section of the hateful conduct policy from Twitter did the tweets from Greene violate and why they decided to leave the tweets up rather than delete them.
Twitter did not respond for publication, but this article will be updated if any reply is forthcoming.
The Big Tech platform had permanently suspended Greene’s personal account in January of this year, claiming that by posting that there were “extremely high amounts of Covid vaccine deaths” in America, she had violated their policies around coronavirus misinformation.
