Summary

Georgia Representative and conservative champion Marjorie Taylor Greene has announced her resignation from Congress, effective January 5, 2026, after a public disagreement with President Donald Trump.

Georgia Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene, a steadfast defender of American values and the Constitution, announced on Friday her decision to resign from Congress, with her last day set for January 5, 2026. This courageous announcement follows a disappointing public dispute with President Donald Trump, who, in a surprising move, withdrew his endorsement and called Greene 'wacky' and a 'ranting lunatic.'

In a heartfelt video statement posted on social media, Greene exposed the corruption of the 'Political Industrial Complex,' condemning both parties for manipulating Americans through division and deceit. She stated, 'Americans are used by the Political Industrial Complex of both political parties, election cycle after election cycle, in order to elect whichever side can convince Americans to hate the other side more.'

Greene also called out party leadership for stonewalling her important legislative efforts, including bills to make English the official language and to protect children from dangerous gender-transition procedures. She lamented, 'My bills... just sit collecting dust.' Despite her tireless advocacy for the people, establishment politicians refused to act.

Her resignation will lead to a special election in Georgia’s 14th district, a stronghold for conservative values, as rated 'Solid R' by the Cook Political Report.
