Trump news at a glance: Marjorie Taylor Greene raises fears for her safety as row with Donald Trump escalates
"Marjorie Taylor Greene, a longtime Republican ally who previously fiercely defended Donald Trump and his Maga movement, said on Saturday she had been contacted by private security firms with warnings for my safety after Trump announced on Friday he was withdrawing his support for and endorsement of the Georgia representative. In a post on X, Greene said that a hot bed of threats against me are being fueled and egged on by the most powerful man in the world, without referring to Trump by name, adding it was the man I supported and helped get elected."
"In a later post on X, Greene posted a chart of rising average grocery bills, calling it the ultimate warning to all of my Republican colleagues and equating cost-of-living pressures to a vote in Congress over the release of further Epstein files next week."
"Marjorie Traitor' Green is a disgrace to our GREAT REPUBLICAN PARTY! Trump fumed on social media, a day after ending his support for Greene, calling her Wacky Marjorie and saying he would endorse a challenger against her in the next midterm election if the right person runs. The war of words between the congresswoman and Trump has become increasingly bitter primarily over the release of government-held documents relating to Jeffrey Epstein, which Greene supports."
Marjorie Taylor Greene said private security firms contacted her with warnings for her safety after Donald Trump withdrew his endorsement. Greene posted on X that threats against her are being fueled and egged on by the most powerful man in the world and noted she helped elect that man. Greene also posted a chart of rising grocery bills and framed cost-of-living pressures as a warning tied to an upcoming congressional vote on releasing additional Epstein files. The dispute with Trump centers on issues including Israel aid, the government shutdown and the release of Epstein-related documents, and has grown increasingly bitter.
