Trump Breaks With Greene, Accuses Her of Betraying GOP as Epstein Files Fight Escalates

Greene says the clash stems from her push to force the Justice Department to release Epstein records before a House vote next week.

Overview

  • President Trump said on Truth Social he will no longer back Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, calling her a betrayer who has moved left and a “fake politician.”
  • Greene responded on X that Trump is targeting her to intimidate other Republicans ahead of a planned House vote to compel the DOJ to disclose all Epstein-related materials.
  • She added that she did not expect her transparency push on Epstein to trigger a public rift and framed the effort as standing up for victims and exposing powerful networks.
  • Democratic lawmakers recently released portions of Epstein’s emails that they say suggest Trump may have known about the financier’s crimes, a move the White House dismissed as a smear and a distraction from a budget crisis.
  • Epstein was arrested in July 2019 and died in custody the following month, ending criminal prosecution but leaving unresolved questions that have fueled renewed disclosure demands.
