BYE BITCH........
"I always knew you were a pussy ass BITCH!"
Georgia Republican Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene announced Friday she is resigning from Congress next year, effective Jan. 5, 2026.
The bombshell development comes a week after President Donald Trump withdrew his support for Greene, one of his staunchest allies, after she criticized him and his administration for their handling of the Jeffrey Epstein investigation, along with other matters.
In a four-page statement announcing her resignation posted on X, Greene repeatedly addressed her recent falling-out with Trump.
"Standing 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," she said.
"I have too much self respect and dignity, love my family way too much, and do not want my sweet district 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," Greene added.
Greene, who has served in the House since 2021, came under attack from Trump last week, when the president announced that he was removing his endorsement of Greene's reelection campaign after she broke party rank and signed onto a discharge petition forcing a vote to order the Department of Justice to release its full Epstein files -- another issue that Greene has come to champion from the campaign trail to Capitol Hill in recent years.
In a social media post Trump called Greene "a ranting Lunatic" who has "gone Far Left." In an ensuing online back-and-forth with Greene over the weekend, he called her "Marjorie 'Traitor' Greene" and said he would support a primary challenger.
In a video released Friday alongside her statement Greene said, "My self-worth is not defined by a man, but instead by God."
In a brief phone interview with ABC News Senior Political Correspondent Rachel Scott on Friday, Trump said Greene's resignation is "great news for the country." He said he has no plans to speak with her and wishes her well.
"I think it's great news for the country. It's great," the president told Scott, adding Greene did not give him a heads up.
"Nah, it doesn't matter, you know? But I think it's great," he said. "I think she should be happy.”
The falling-out with Trump was the apparent breaking point for the lawmaker who came to define the MAGA movement on Capitol Hill -- whether it was fighting Trump's second impeachment following the Jan. 6 Capitol attack or wearing a "Make America Great Again" hat at then-President Joe Biden’s State of the Union address.
