Marjorie Taylor Greene, a prominent figure in the Make America Great Again (MAGA) movement, has announced her resignation from the US Congress, citing a bitter feud with former President Donald Trump. In a video posted online, the 51-year-old Republican congresswoman from Georgia revealed she would be stepping down from her seat on January 5, 2026. Greene, who was elected in 2020, expressed her desire to avoid a contentious primary battle with Trump, which she believed would harm her loved ones and supporters. The move is seen as a significant split in the MAGA movement, which has been reeling from recent Democratic victories in off-year elections. Trump responded to Greene's resignation by labeling her a 'traitor' on his Truth Social platform. The former President claimed Greene had turned against him after he refused to return her frequent phone calls. The resignation comes amidst a broader divide within the MAGA movement, particularly over Trump's stance on releasing emails related to the Jeffrey Epstein case. This internal conflict has left the movement grappling with its future direction. As the US Congress prepares for the midterms, Greene's departure is likely to have significant implications for the Republican party. Her decision to quit has sparked a mix of reactions from fellow politicians and party members, who are still trying to make sense of the latest development in the MAGA movement.
