Marjorie Taylor Greene To Resign From Congress
Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) announced Friday night that she will resign from Congress, marking a dramatic fall from grace for one of Donald Trump’s most outspoken early allies. The decision comes on the heels of a highly publicized split between Greene and the former president, following weeks of growing political and personal friction.
In a video statement posted to X, Greene said, “I’ve been blessed to represent the 14th District of Georgia for five years. That district is filled with some of the most wonderful, kind-hearted, God fearing, patriotic, hardworking people you will ever meet. Good, regular, common Americans.”
But the tone quickly shifted.
“Loyalty should be a two-way street,” she declared. “Because my self worth is not defined by a man, but instead by God, who created everything in existence.”
Greene’s resignation will become official on January 5.

From Firebrand to Fallout
First elected in 2020, Greene became a defining voice of the Trump-era Republican Party. She fiercely opposed Joe Biden’s presidency, endorsed “America First” policies, and frequently tangled with Democrats and moderate Republicans alike. But her once-tight bond with Trump soured in recent weeks amid internal GOP tensions over health care policy, spending battles, and the release of the Epstein files.
Greene reportedly pressed the administration to do more to expose high-profile Epstein connections. She also broke with Trump on strategy surrounding the Affordable Care Act and took public shots at GOP leadership during the government shutdown.
Trump Fires Back
Trump officially withdrew his endorsement of Greene on November 14, writing on Truth Social:
“I am withdrawing my support and Endorsement of ‘Congresswoman’ Marjorie Taylor Greene, of the Great State of Georgia. All I see ‘Wacky’ Marjorie do is COMPLAIN, COMPLAIN, COMPLAIN!”
He accused her of becoming unstable after he showed her internal polling that revealed slim prospects for a future Senate or gubernatorial run in Georgia.
“She has told many people that she is upset that I don’t return her phone calls anymore,” Trump wrote. “But with 219 Congressmen/women, 53 U.S. Senators, 24 Cabinet Members, almost 200 Countries, and an otherwise normal life to lead, I can’t take a ranting Lunatic’s call every day.”
He closed with a warning:
“I understand that wonderful, Conservative people are thinking about primarying Marjorie in her District of Georgia … if the right person runs, they will have my Complete and Unyielding Support.”
Legacy and What’s Next
Greene’s departure marks the end of one of the most polarizing congressional tenures in modern politics. From her viral committee battles to her unapologetic promotion of populist-nationalist causes, she was often a lightning rod — sometimes praised, often condemned.
Her resignation now opens the door for a fierce Republican primary in Georgia’s 14th District, with pro-Trump candidates likely jockeying to take her place under the former president’s watchful eye.
As for Greene, her next move remains uncertain. But her sign-off left little doubt she’s not disappearing quietly:
“My fight for this country doesn’t end here. It just changes form.”
