Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene said she is receiving threats amid a public break with President Trump, who withdrew his support and criticized her. The dispute follows Greene’s support for releasing Epstein-related files and extending Affordable Care Act tax credits.
Greene said on social media that aggressive rhetoric directed at her had preceded threats in the past, but she did not describe the specific threats. She said Trump was now directing that rhetoric at her. Trump had announced he was withdrawing his support for her, and the two exchanged further criticism online. A group identifying as Epstein survivors or their family members also expressed support for Greene, and its spokesperson said some members had received death threats.
The article links the rift to Greene’s support for forcing a House vote on releasing Epstein-related materials and her backing of an extension of expiring Affordable Care Act tax credits. Greene called Trump’s opposition to releasing the files a “huge miscalculation” and said she stood with the women affected. She also said the expiring tax credits could cause a financial crisis for Americans.
