Greene Says Trump Warned ‘My Friends Will Get Hurt’ in Epstein Files Fight

A New York Times profile details her claim that a dispute over releasing Epstein records ended their alliance ahead of her Jan. 5 exit.

Overview

  • Marjorie Taylor Greene says Trump berated her after she threatened to name alleged Epstein abusers, telling her, “My friends will get hurt,” a call she says staff heard on speakerphone.
  • Greene says Trump rejected her request to host Epstein survivors at the Oval Office, which she describes as their final conversation before their public feud.
  • Trump withdrew his endorsement in November and labeled her a “traitor,” after which Greene reported a pipe-bomb threat and a menacing email about her son and announced she will resign on Jan. 5, 2026.
  • Greene helped drive a bipartisan push that forced the DOJ to begin releasing Epstein-related materials in December, though the initial documents were heavily redacted.
  • Expanding her criticism, Greene questioned Trump’s focus on foreign leaders, posting about his meetings with Zelenskyy and Netanyahu, and said a Kirk memorial remark convinced her he “does not have any faith.”
