Marjorie Taylor Greene fires back after Donald Trump labels her a “traitor,” intensifying a GOP internal feud centered on the handling of Jeffrey Epstein files. Speaking at a Capitol Hill press conference alongside lawmakers and Epstein survivors, Greene said the controversy has become one of the most damaging scandals to hit the MAGA movement since 2016. Once a staunch day-one Trump ally, she claims the partisan divide over Epstein revelations has “ripped MAGA apart.” The press conference has ended, but the political fallout continues to escalate.
00:00Thank you, Thomas. Thank you, Ro. I woke up this morning, and I turned to my weather app to check the temperature, and it was 32 degrees, and my first thought was, hell has froze over.
00:12I want to speak goodness and love and hope into the women standing behind me and all of the other survivors whose names you don't even know but stand with these women.
00:32They are survivors, and they are strong, and they are courageous, and they are daughters of God.
00:39They are not victims. These women have fought the most horrific fight that no woman should have to fight, and they did it by banding together and never giving up.
00:52And that's what we did by fighting so hard against the most powerful people in the world, even the President of the United States, in order to make this vote happen today.
01:04I was called a traitor by a man that I fought for five, no, actually six years for, and I gave him my loyalty for free.
01:17I won my first election without his endorsement beating eight men in a primary, and I've never owed him anything, but I fought for him for the policies and for America first.
01:30And he called me a traitor for standing with these women and refusing to take my name off the discharge petition.
01:38Let me tell you what a traitor is.
01:41A traitor is an American that serves foreign countries and themselves.
01:48A patriot is an American that serves the United States of America and Americans like the women standing behind me.
01:57And I want to tell you that this only became possible today because the American people, whom we serve as representatives here in Congress, demanded that this vote happen.
02:12And they put more pressure on every single elected politician in this city than has ever been put on them.
02:20And today you are going to see probably a unanimous vote in the House to release the Epstein files.
02:29But the fight, the real fight will happen after that.
02:34While I want to see every single name released so that these women don't have to live in fear and intimidation, which is something I've had a small taste of in just the past few days, just a small taste.
02:47They've been living it for years.
02:51But the real test will be, will the Department of Justice release the files or will it all remain tied up in investigations?
03:00Will the CIA release the files?
03:02Will a federal judge, will a judge in New York, sorry, a judge in New York release the information?
03:08That's information that needs to come out.
03:11And will the list of names that these women privately hold, and they hold it because of their fear in their heart of what would happen to them if they release it on their own.
03:25Will that list of names come out?
03:27That's the real test.
03:28So I want to thank Thomas Massey and Ro Khanna for your bravery in doing something, doing something that is much needed in America, crossing the political aisle that has become bigger than the Grand Canyon in America.
03:45But these men cross that aisle on behalf of these women.
03:50And that is more of what is needed today in America than ever in our history.
03:58So thank you so much.
