Trump Breaks With Greene as Fight Over Epstein Records Erupts on Capitol Hill
Greene says the rupture follows her push to force disclosure of Epstein files before a planned House vote targeting Justice Department records.
Overview
- President Donald Trump publicly denounced Marjorie Taylor Greene on Truth Social, called her a betrayer of the Republican Party, and said he will not support her in future elections.
- Greene responded that Trump’s attacks are retaliation for her push to declassify Epstein-related materials and an effort to warn other Republicans ahead of next week’s vote.
- She also accused Trump’s rhetoric of fueling threats to her safety, saying security contacts have warned her as the online backlash intensifies.
- House leaders are preparing a vote next week on measures intended to compel the Justice Department to release records tied to the Jeffrey Epstein case.
- Democratic lawmakers have already published portions of Epstein’s emails suggesting Trump might have known about the financier’s crimes, which the White House dismissed as a partisan smear.
