Marjorie Taylor Greene Faces Threats Amid Rift with Trump
US Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene has revealed that she is receiving death threats amid a rift with former President Donald Trump. The move comes after the president announced on Friday that he was ending his support for Greene, citing her "far-left" stances.
Greene, who has been one of Trump's most loyal supporters, has taken a number of positions that diverge from the president's views, including on healthcare funding and the release of files related to convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. The tensions escalated when Greene joined Democrats in signing a discharge petition to force a House vote on releasing materials related to Epstein.
In a statement, Greene claimed that she was receiving aggressive rhetoric and death threats, which has historically led to convictions for men radicalized by similar rhetoric. She also noted that as a woman, she takes threats from men seriously and now understands the fear and pressure faced by women who have been victims of Epstein's abuse.
A group of over two dozen survivors of Epstein and their families released a statement in support of Greene, thanking her for standing up against intimidation and silencing. Many of them have also received death threats, with one stating that it is "part of the price of speaking out".
The rift between Trump and Greene has intensified on social media, with both sides exchanging barbs. The president accused Greene of being a "traitor" to the Republican Party and claimed that her departure was inevitable.
Greene's stance on issues like affordable care act tax credits has also drawn criticism from some Republicans, who see it as an attempt to straddle the party line. However, she argues that the issue should be approached with a focus on the financial crisis it poses for Americans, rather than partisan politics.
As tensions between Trump and Greene continue to escalate, it remains to be seen how long the rift will last and what implications it may have for the future of the Republican Party.

marjorie taylor greene is one tough cookie lol but seriously who knew she was gonna stir up so much drama with trump like did he really think she'd just fold under pressure? 
and now these threats are getting out of hand fam it's scary thinking about the women involved, especially those epstein survivors taking a stand can you imagine being in their shoes? 
i feel for Greene though she's trying to do what's right even if it means going against trump but maybe this rift is just an opportunity for her to shine in her own way 
i'm like totally team marjorie rn 
, but at the same time, trump's all salty because she's not toeing his line anymore 
, it's kinda funny how he thinks being a traitor to the party will make him look good lol anyway, imo it's a win for her that some epstein survivors are supporting her, and a total loss for trump who's just gonna keep getting roasted on social media 
... Trump cutting ties with her? That's some crazy stuff right there 
... And now she's getting death threats? That's just wrong 
... Women like her need to be able to speak out without fear of intimidation or backlash 
...
... It's just not cool. And the fact that some Republicans are piling on Greene for trying to stand up against Trump? That's just petty 
...
...
. I'm not surprised that some Epstein survivors are supporting her, considering how messed up the whole system is 
. It's like, we're all human beings here and deserve respect, regardless of politics 
. This Trump-Greene thing just makes me wonder what's going on with our party anymore... seems like people can't even agree on basic stuff 
after Trump ditched her 
! As a woman, I can relate to feeling scared & pressured 
, especially when it comes to being silenced or ignored 
. Glad some of Epstein's victims are speaking out too 
, even if they're getting Death Threats themselves 
! Maybe this rift will bring change for the better? 
️ We can only hope 
!
. As a woman who has been in situations where women are silenced or intimidated, it's especially disturbing to hear that Greene is taking these threats seriously 
. I mean, they're not backing down just because Greene is going through this drama 
. Like, calling her a traitor? Really? 
.
. We need more people like her who aren't afraid to stand up for what they believe in 
but at the same time i get why she's taking a stand on epstein's files... he's such a monster 
and whoever helped him cover it up should be held accountable 
i'm all for standing up against silencing, regardless of party affiliation 
i feel bad for her tho, she took a stand against epstein and his fam, which btw is super brave. and can we talk about the fact that men are still getting away scot free with these threats?
