Marjorie Taylor Greene delivered a scathing evaluation of Trump and his status within the Republican Party during her first one-on-one interview since announcing her plan to resign from Congress in January.

The Georgia congresswoman—once among Trump’s most passionate and vocal allies before their public rift—seemed to question whether the near-universal support Trump has from congressional Republicans is genuine during her Sunday night appearance on CBS’ 60 Minutes. She argued that people would be “shocked” to learn those same Republicans used to mock Trump behind his back.

Claiming Republicans are now “terrified” to break ranks (fearful of becoming targets of a “nasty” Truth Social post from Trump), she stated: “I watched many of my colleagues go from making fun of him, making fun of how he talks, making fun of me constantly for supporting him, to when he won the primary in 2024 they all started… kissing his a-s and decided to put on a MAGA hat for the first time.”

Greene’s relationship with Trump fractured when the Georgia representative refused to align with the President’s stance on the debate over releasing files linked to late convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. Though Trump eventually reversed course and ordered the Epstein files released on November 19, he initially dismissed calls for their public disclosure, labeling the issue a Democratic “hoax.”

Greene opposed Trump’s position and joined a bipartisan push to fully release the files. This move earned her a public rebuke from the President—the kind she says others are “terrified” to receive. Trump withdrew his support and endorsement of Greene, calling her a “traitor” and “disgrace” to the Republican Party. On November 21, Greene announced she would resign from Congress in January 2026. She explained her decision in a statement accompanied by a video address, where she painted a grim picture of Washington, D.C.’s political landscape.

Discussing their rift during the Sunday interview, Greene said Trump was “extremely angry” over her choice to step out of line and sign a discharge petition to release the Epstein files.

Greene stated: “I fully believe that those women [survivors of Epstein] deserve everything they’re asking. They’re asking for all of it to come out; they deserve it. And he [Trump] was furious with me. … He said it was going to hurt people.”

While the Epstein file dispute was the final straw in their widely talked-about fallout, tensions between Greene and Trump had been brewing for some time. Since Trump returned to the White House, Greene has notably—and publicly—opposed him on several high-profile issues, such as her vocal disapproval of [missing issue, likely a policy or event] and her plea for the President to prioritize “America First” domestic policy over foreign affairs.

Greene stood firm on her stance during the interview.

She said: “For an America First president, the number one focus should have been domestic policy, and it wasn’t. And so, of course I was critical because those were my campaign promises. Once we fix everything here, then, fine, we’ll talk to the rest of the world.”

Just last year, Greene—wearing the “Make America Great Again” hat she often sported—[missing action, likely “interrupted” or “protested”] former President Joe Biden’s State of the Union speech amid heightened partisan tensions over border policy. Now, however, she is reluctant to embrace the MAGA label.

Greene explained: “MAGA is President Trump’s phrase. That’s his, his political policies. I call myself America First.”

The Georgia lawmaker also accused Trump of fueling death threats against her and her family since their public split. According to Greene, one threat sent to her son bore the subject line “Marjorie ‘Traitor’ Greene”—the President’s unflattering nickname for her.

She claimed: “Those were death threats directly fueled by President Trump.”

TIME has reached out to the White House for comment.

Greene isn’t the only Republican to have drawn Trump’s wrath in recent weeks.

Kentucky Republican Sen. Rand Paul—who frequently clashes with Trump on various issues—was the sole GOP senator to vote “no” on legislation ending the U.S. government shutdown. Republican Representatives Thomas Massie of Kentucky and Greg Steube of Florida also voted “no” when the bill reached the House. Trump later referred to Paul and Massie as “lowlifes.”

Paul criticized Trump’s recent statements about Democrats after the President [missing verb, likely “targeted” or “called out”] six Democrats who urged troops and intelligence officials to resist unlawful orders. Trump labeled these Democrats “seditious” and claimed their behavior is “punishable by death.”

Addressing Trump’s comments during an appearance on CBS’ Face the Nation on November 23, Paul described Trump’s remarks as “reckless, inappropriate, irresponsible.”

The Republican senator has also been critical of [missing term, likely “military strikes”] in the Caribbean Sea—actions the Trump Administration argues are necessary to curb narcotics flow into the U.S. Paul said he could see a potential “splintering and fracturing of the movement that has supported the President” if the controversial strikes continue.
