Marjorie Taylor Greene Resigns

Republican Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene of Georgia announced on Friday, November 21, 2025, that she will resign from Congress, with her last day in office set for January 5, 2026 The resignation follows a public fallout with former President Donald Trump, who unendorsed her and called her a “traitor” after she broke with him on issues including the release of Jeffrey Epstein-related files

- Greene cited her deteriorating relationship with Trump and the resulting political pressure as key factors in her decision, stating she did not want her family or district to endure a “hurtful and hateful” primary battle
- She had been a staunch Trump ally since entering Congress in 2021 but recently emerged as a critic, particularly over U.S. policy toward Israel, health care, and the handling of the Epstein investigation
- Trump’s withdrawal of support included plans to back a primary challenger against her in the 2026 elections, which Greene said contributed to her choice to step down
- In her resignation statement, Greene expressed concern that her departure signaled a broader exclusion of “common Americans” from the MAGA movement, which she referred to as “MAGA Inc”
- Some Georgia GOP officials have reaffirmed their support for her despite Trump’s stance, acknowledging her influence and dedication to her district
