Marjorie Taylor Greene said she will resign from Congress in January after a public falling-out with President Donald Trump. Her departure will come before the next midterm elections and follows her criticism of Trump on several issues.
Greene said Friday that she would resign, with Jan. 5, 2026, as her last day. In an online video, she described feeling out of place in Washington and said representatives should be able to vote their conscience and represent their districts.
The report links Greene’s decision to a public falling-out with Trump over her criticism of his positions on Epstein-related files, foreign policy and health care. Trump called her a “traitor” and “wacky” and said he would endorse a challenger in her next reelection race. The White House did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

47 OUTLETSGreene announced she will resign from Congress on Jan. 5, 2026, following a public break with President Donald Trump.

Right-leaning outlets emphasize her stated grievances and possible effects on Republican control or Trump’s agenda, though one opinion piece criticizes her for leaving early.
