GA Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene resigns from Congress after break with Donald Trump

The once-fierce supporter of President Donald Trump announced her impending resignation after a brutal split.

Less than a week after Trump denounced her, Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene announced on X Friday evening that she will be resigning from her post as the representative of Georgia’s 14th Congressional District. Greene said her last day in office will be Jan. 5. 

“No matter which way the political pendulum swings, Republican or Democrat, nothing ever gets better for the common American man or woman,” Greene said in her post.

Greene criticized her party in the House of Representatives for failing to find a solution during the federal government shutdown.

Greene listed the moments she disagreed with President Trump, including the release of the Jeffrey Epstein files, U.S. involvement in foreign wars, and 50-year mortgages.

“Loyalty should be a two-way street, and we should be able to vote our conscience and represent our district’s interests because our job title is literally representative,” she said in her post.

Her resignation raised speculation that Greene might reconsider a run for governor or U.S. Senate although she has previously dismissed the idea. Greene won reelection in the 14th District in 2024 with more than 64% of the vote.

Despite their recent split, Trump told NBC News on Saturday that he would like to see Greene resume a political career after she takes a break.

“Once I left her, she resigned because she wouldn’t have, she would never have survived a primary,” Trump said in the interview with NBC News.

In recent weeks, Greene has distanced herself from the president and faced political blowback for her staunch support of releasing the files related to Jeffrey Epstein. Greene apologized for her participation in “toxic politics” after Trump called her a traitor.

“Those are the types of words used that can radicalize people against me and put my life in danger,” she said in her interview with CNN. “His remarks, of course, have been hurtful. However, I have something in my heart that I think is incredibly important for our country, and that is to end the toxic fighting in politics.”

Greene has already dismissed claims that she would be running for president in 2028, saying on X that she has only laughed when people mentioned the idea.

TIME claims “sources” told them I’m running for President in 2028, which means this is a complete lie and they made it up because they can’t even quote the names of the people who they claim said it. That’s not journalism, it’s called lying.
