Marjorie Taylor Greene makes serious allegations against the US President. In particular, it is about Trump’s handling of the Epstein documents.

Former Trump confidante Marjorie Taylor Greene has sharply criticized the US President’s handling of the release of the Epstein documents. “People have to trust what they see. The truth is: The Trump administration is not releasing the relevant information,” Greene said in a video interview. “The US president yelled at me because of this thing. He called me a traitor because of this thing. I stand with the women who were raped as teenagers. I don’t support this cover-up, I don’t support this government.”

Greene continued: “Attorney General Pam Bondi works directly for Donald Trump. She is not an independent attorney general who can do what she thinks is right. This also applies to the FBI. Everyone is upset about Pam Bondi, but the man at the top is Donald Trump – and he was the one who wanted to prevent publication from the start.”

The statement to the FBI is not a win for Trump, “but rather a cheap distraction to distract the base from the fact that Trump is mentioned more than 38,000 times in the Epstein files.” A real victory, on the other hand, is the “damned arrests of Epstein customers.” Trump’s US Department of Justice recently stated that it saw no reason for new investigations.

Greene voluntarily resigned from Congress earlier this year. For years she was considered one of Trump’s closest allies – until the end of last year when she made critical comments about his handling of the Epstein case. After this public falling out, Greene turned his back on the MAGA movement. However, she immediately received a receipt for this from Donald Trump: he publicly called her a “traitor” on his online platform and changed her last name to Marjorie “Traitor” Greene.

Greene then spoke on the US show “60 Minutes”. She reported that many in the party were gossiping about him behind Trump’s back. If she told all the details, “it would shock people,” Greene explained. She often noticed how many of her party colleagues made fun of the president – especially about the way he talked. Many Republicans, said Greene, are afraid of Trump.
