US lawmaker Marjorie Taylor Greene to resign | BBC News Marjorie Taylor Greene has announced she will resign from office, an unexpected turn for the high-profile Republican.
One of Donald Trump’s Maga superstars and staunchest defenders, the Georgia congresswoman’s relentless calls for releasing files related to late paedophile Jeffrey Epstein and recent criticism of some of his policies led to a bitter public feud.
After the US president labelled her a "traitor", she said in a video announcing her departure: "I refuse to be a ‘battered wife’ hoping it all goes away and gets better."
Trump, who had threatened to support a Republican challenger to unseat Greene, called her resignation "great news for the country" in an interview with ABC News.
She said in her video statement, posted on social media, that she would leave the US Congress on 5 January 2026.
