Marjorie Taylor Greene via X\/Handout via REUTERS<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #000080;\">Saying she refused to be a \u201cbattered wife,\u201d US Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene announced on Friday she was resigning from the House of Representatives in the wake of a dramatic falling out with President Donald Trump.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #000080;\">Her exit marks a stunning turn of events that few would have imagined months ago. Greene, a Republican from Georgia, was once one of Trump\u2019s closest allies and an outspoken advocate of his \u201cAmerica First\u201d agenda, but the rift between the two widened in recent months over the release of government files related to sex offender Jeffrey Epstein and other matters.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #000080;\">In a 10-minute video posted on social media, Greene said she was spurred to resign by the prospect of having to face a Trump-backed Republican primary challenger and the potential takeover of the House by Democrats in next year\u2019s midterm elections. She also complained that Congress has largely been \u201csidelined\u201d since Trump returned to the presidency in January.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #000080;\">RUPTURE PROMPTS CONCERNS OVER MAGA BASE BEFORE MIDTERMS<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #000080;\">\u201cI have too much self-respect and dignity, love my family way too much, and do not want my sweet district to have to endure a hurtful and hateful primary against me by the president we all fought for, only to fight and win my election while Republicans will likely lose the midterms,\u201d Greene said.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #000080;\">\u201cI refuse to be a battered wife hoping it all goes away and gets better,\u201d she added.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #000080;\">Interviewed by ABC News, Trump said Greene\u2019s resignation, to take effect on January 5, was \u201cgreat news for the country. It\u2019s great.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #000080;\">Greene lamented the state of American politics, contending that neither Republicans nor Democratic lawmakers were working to solve the nation\u2019s problems, including the rising cost of living.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #000080;\">She said voters were tuning out Washington because \u201cthey know how much credit card debt they have, they know how much their own bills have gone up over the past five years, they actually do their own grocery shopping and know food costs too much, their rent has increasingly gone up, they have been outbid by corporate asset managers too many times when they put in an offer to buy a house.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #000080;\">The public dispute between Trump and Greene had fueled concerns among some Republicans that Trump\u2019s \u201cMake America Great Again\u201d base could fracture a year before the midterms, when Democrats hope to regain control of Congress.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #000080;\">Greene\u2019s resignation will narrow the Republican majority in the House to 218 members over the Democrats\u2019 213. Republicans have a 53-47 majority in the Senate.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #000080;\">Greene had been increasingly exhibiting her independence from Trump, joining a House effort to force the release of the Epstein files over his objections, blasting House leadership for not doing more to address healthcare costs during the recent government shutdown and calling Israel\u2019s assault on Gaza a genocide.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #000080;\">Trump, in turn, became more critical of her.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #000080;\">Before the House voted overwhelmingly to release the Epstein files, he called her a \u201ctraitor\u201d and \u201cdisgrace\u201d to the Republican Party. He withdrew his support for her and called her a \u201cranting lunatic.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #000080;\">GREENE SAYS ORDINARY AMERICANS BEING \u2018CAST ASIDE\u2019<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #000080;\">In her video, Greene defended her Epstein vote.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #000080;\">\u201cStanding up for American women who were raped at 14, trafficked and used by rich powerful men, should not result in me being called a traitor and threatened by the president of the United States, whom I fought for,\u201d she said.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #000080;\">Greene said she was proud of her conservative voting record, adding, in a swipe at Trump, that \u201cloyalty should be a two-way street.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #000080;\">Her ally in the House, Representative Thomas Massie, posted on X that Greene \u201cembodies what a true representative should be.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #000080;\">Barbara Comstock, a former Republican House member and a Trump critic, lauded Greene\u2019s decision on social media.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #000080;\">\u201cShe doesn\u2019t want to be a Republican \u2018battered wife\u2019 taking Trump\u2019s abuse and getting death threats and pretending it\u2019s all ok only to end up in the minority. Good for her,\u201d Comstock posted.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #000080;\">Greene won her northwest Georgia district with 64% of the vote in 2024. Residents there said this week they hoped her rift with Trump would soon heal and expressed a willingness to support both of them. But Greene made clear on Friday that she had no interest in sparring with a Trump-backed opponent.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #000080;\">Even if she prevailed, she said, she likely would be in the House minority after the midterms and would have to defend Trump in impeachment proceedings, a situation she called \u201cabsurd\u201d and \u201ccompletely unserious.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #000080;\">\u201cIf I am cast aside by MAGA Inc and replaced by Neocons, Big Pharma, Big Tech, Military Industrial War Complex, foreign leaders, and the elite donor class that can\u2019t even relate to real Americans, then many common Americans have been cast aside and replaced as well,\u201d she said.<\/span><\/p>\n<hr style=\"height: 15px; background: #d0e6fa; width: 100%;\">\n<div id=\"content\" class=\"content-alignment\">\n<div id=\"watch-description\" class=\"yt-uix-button-panel\">\n<div id=\"watch-description-text\" style=\"text-align: center;\">\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><em>Zawarto\u015b\u0107 publikowanych artyku\u0142\u00f3w i materia\u0142\u00f3w nie reprezentuje pogl\u0105d\u00f3w ani opinii Reunion&#8217;68,<\/em><em><br \/>\nani te\u017c webmastera Blogu Reunion&#8217;68, chyba ze jest to wyra\u017anie zaznaczone.<br \/>\nTwoje uwagi, linki, w\u0142asne artyku\u0142y lub wiadomo\u015bci prze\u015blij na adres:<br \/>\n<\/em><span style=\"color: #000080;\"><strong><em><a style=\"color: #000080;\" href=\"mailto:webmaster@reunion68.com\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">webmaster@reunion68.com<\/span><\/a><\/em><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<hr style=\"width: 100%;\">\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>MAGA Favorite Marjorie Taylor Greene to Resign After Split with Trump Reuters and Algemeiner Staff U.S. Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) announces her resignation from her position, in this screen grab from a statement released on social media, November 21, 2025.
