marjorie Taylor Greene Claims Threats Amidst Trump Feud Over ‘Epstein Files‘
Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) has stated she is receiving warnings from private security firms due to a surge in threats against her, which she attributes to aggressive rhetoric fueled by “the moast powerful man in the world” - former President donald Trump. This escalation comes as Democrats intensify attacks on Trump regarding his past connections to Jeffrey Epstein, the financier who died by suicide in prison in August 2019.
The conflict centers around Greene’s push to release the so-called ‘Epstein files’ - documents related to the Justice department’s investigation into Epstein. Greene is one of four Republican representatives who signed a petition to force a House vote on releasing these files, and has publicly criticized Trump for resisting their disclosure. She believes the attacks against her are an attempt to “intimidate other Republicans” ahead of that vote.
On November 15, 2025, Greene posted on X (formerly Twitter): “I am now being contacted by private security firms with warnings for my safety as a hot bed of threats against me are being fueled and egged on by the most powerful man in the world. The man I supported and helped get elected. Aggressive rhetoric attacking me has historically…”
Trump has responded to Greene’s criticisms with increasingly harsh language. He recently dubbed her “Marjorie ‘Traitor’ Greene (sic)” on his social media platform, Truth social, calling her a “Shame on our GRATE REPUBLICAN PARTY.” He also referred to her as “crazy” and suggested primary challenges to her re-election in Georgia, stating, “If the right person runs, he will have my complete and unyielding support.”
Greene has drawn parallels between the threats she is receiving and the experiences of Jeffrey Epstein’s victims, stating she now has a “little understanding of the fear and pressure” they ”must feel.” She also asserted that Trump’s attacks are contributing to the “venomous nature of his radical Internet trolls,” and as a woman, she “take[s] men’s threats seriously.”
Beyond the ‘Epstein files’ dispute, Greene has also publicly disagreed with Trump on other issues. She and other Republicans have urged the GOP to reassess its economic communications strategy following recent electoral losses. Greene has also highlighted the impending expiration of Affordable Care Act subsidies, advocating for a republican response to prevent premium increases – a position that aligns with Democrats. She further criticized Trump for what she perceives as an overemphasis on foreign policy at the expense of domestic concerns, describing this as an “internal frond.”
Trump, though, has consistently sought to minimize the importance of economic concerns, accusing Democrats of constructing a negative narrative.
