Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, a Republican from Georgia, has revealed that she is receiving "a hot bed of threats" targeting her personal and professional life, all allegedly fueled by a scathing tirade from former President Donald Trump. The attacks on Greene have forced her to reach a breaking point with one-time allies.
Greene claimed that the aggressive rhetoric from Trump was also inciting violent behavior among his radical online followers, drawing comparisons between herself and the victims of Jeffrey Epstein, whom she believes now understands the fear and pressure they must feel.
Trump had launched a direct attack on Greene earlier this week, calling her "wacky" and suggesting she should be challenged in a primary election. He also coined a new nickname for her, labeling her "Marjorie 'Traitor' Green," which he claimed was a "disgrace to our GREAT REPUBLICAN PARTY."
Greene responded by accusing Trump of lying about her and launching a personal attack. She alleged that Trump's actions were aimed at intimidating other Republicans before next week's vote on whether to release the Epstein files.
Despite having previously supported Trump, Greene wrote in a crucial quote: "I have supported President Trump with 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." However, she now feels betrayed by his actions and is seeking justice.
The escalating tensions between Greene and Trump mark a turning point in their once-strong relationship. While the exact extent of the threats against Greene remains unclear, it's evident that her words carry weight in the eyes of former President Trump.

It's staggering! 
... one minute she's a loyal ally to Trump, next she's getting roasted and intimidated by him 
... it's like he's trying to silence her and now she's seeking justice 
... I don't blame her at all 
... these online attacks can be super scary and it's not cool that Trump is using his platform to diss her like that 
... she's been through a lot already, being a conservative woman in politics can be tough enough without some dude like Trump coming after you 
... I hope she gets the support she needs from her party and the public 
... this whole thing is just super sad
