Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, former Trump loyalist, says she will resign from Congress

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene of Georgia, a once-loyal supporter of President Donald Trump who has become a critic, said Friday that she is resigning from Congress in January.

In a more than 10-minute video posted online, Greene explained her decision and said she has “always been despised in Washington, D.C., and just never fit in.”

Greene’s announcement follows a public fallout with Trump in recent months, as the congresswoman criticized him for his stance on files related to Jeffrey Epstein, along with foreign policy and health care.

Trump branded her a “traitor” and “wacky” and said he would endorse a primary challenge against her next year.

Greene said her last day will be Jan. 5.
