Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene of Georgia has announced she will resign from Congress at the beginning of next year, following a dramatic rupture in her relationship with President Donald Trump. The decision comes after Trump withdrew his endorsement from her, citing her actions as unfaithful to conservative principles.
Greene’s sudden resignation shocked supporters, with sources indicating her move may be linked to potential 2028 presidential aspirations. A close ally revealed she has considered running for president, though she did not confirm the possibility. Greene’s resignation follows a public falling-out with Trump, during which she criticized his handling of U.S.–Israel relations and pushed for release of Epstein-related files.
Trump labeled her a “traitor” and “wacky,” stating he would endorse a challenger against her if she sought reelection. Greene explained her decision in a 10-minute video, emphasizing she did not want her district to endure a hurtful primary. Her last day will be Jan. 5, 2026.
A spokesperson for Greene did not respond to requests for comment, while the congresswoman herself remained silent on the matter. The report was denied by her daughter, who called it a lie.
