Overview
- Greene, a Republican from Georgia, said she will leave Congress effective January 5, 2026 after a highly public feud with the president.
- She pushed to make Epstein investigation documents public, a stance she says helped trigger the rupture with Trump.
- Trump labeled her a “traitor” and “crazy,” welcomed her decision as “great news,” and indicated he would back GOP challengers in her district.
- Greene said she is stepping down to spare her district “painful, hate-filled primaries” and described feeling like “an abused wife.”
- Her departure narrows an already slim Republican majority in the House and underscores growing divisions over foreign policy and economic issues.
