Marjorie Taylor Greene, a longtime Republican ally who had fiercely defended Donald Trump and the MAGA movement, said on Saturday that she had been contacted by private security firms “with warnings for my safety” after Trump announced on Friday that he was withdrawing his support and endorsement for 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 naming Trump directly, adding that it was “the man I supported and helped get elected."

The man I supported and helped get elected.
Aggressive rhetoric attacking me has historically…
She wrote that “aggressive rhetoric attacking me has historically led to death threats and multiple convictions of men who were radicalized by the same type rhetoric being directed at me right now. This time by the President of the United States.”
Though she did not specify the content of the warnings she said were relayed by private security firms, Greene emphasized, "As a woman I take threats from men seriously. I now have a small understanding of the fear and pressure the women, who are victims of Jeffrey Epstein and his cabal, must feel."
Greene said that despite voting "overwhelmingly" with the Republican Party, "his aggression against me also fuels the venomous nature of his radical internet trolls (many of whom are paid), this is completely shocking to everyone." Her accusation echoed earlier claims made by Trump and administration officials alleging that Democrats have used “paid actors” at protests.
Later on Saturday, Greene posted a chart showing rising average grocery bills, calling it “the ultimate warning to all of my Republican colleagues” and linking cost-of-living pressures to an upcoming congressional vote concerning the release of additional Epstein files. "You vote NO on Tuesday to release the Epstein files and face severe outrage from America," she warned, adding, "Republicans don’t have support from women, and this right here is a perfect example of why."
The ratio on this post should serve as the ultimate warning to all of my Republican colleagues.

Political stakes over the Epstein files vote
The posts mark the latest escalation in an increasingly bitter confrontation between Greene and Trump, centered primarily on the question of government-held documents related to Jeffrey Epstein, which Greene has urged to be released in full. House Speaker Mike Johnson is expected to hold a vote next week on whether to release all unclassified communications and documents.
Trump responded on social media a day after pulling his support, writing: “Marjorie ‘Traitor’ Green is a disgrace to our GREAT REPUBLICAN PARTY!” and referring to her as “Wacky Marjorie”. He added that he would endorse a challenger in the next midterm elections “if the right person runs”.
Earlier Saturday, Greene posted that she had not expected to find herself “fighting to release the Epstein files, defending women who were victims of rape, and fighting to expose the web of rich, powerful elites would have caused this, but here we are."
The dispute, simmering for months, has become public as Greene has increasingly broken with Trump on several issues, including US military aid to “Israel”, the government shutdown, and the “Epstein files”. Trump has accused her of veering “Far Left”, saying that in recent months he has seen only “COMPLAIN, COMPLAIN, COMPLAIN!” from her. “I can’t take a ranting Lunatic’s call every day,” he wrote.
Greene countered that she had dedicated “too much of my precious time, too much of my own money, and fought harder for him even when almost all other Republicans turned their back and denounced him,” adding, “I don’t worship or serve Donald Trump.”
As the Epstein files issue grew more prominent, Greene reversed her position relative to the administration, urging full release of the documents and videos. In September, she said she wanted to expose the “Epstein rape and pedophile network” and warned that she was “not suicidal” if anything were to happen to her.
