Marjorie Taylor Greene says she's received threats over Trump feud

Republican congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene says she's facing threats following a barrage of personal criticism from US President Donald Trump on social media.

The former MAGA ally posted on X, saying she had been contacted by private security firms "with warnings for my safety as a hotbed of threats against me are being fueled and egged on by the most powerful man in the world".

She went on: "As a woman, I take threats from men seriously.

"I now have a small understanding of the fear and pressure the women, who are victims of Jeffrey Epstein and his cabal, must feel.

"As a Republican, who overwhelmingly votes for President Trump's bills and agenda, his aggression against me, which also fuels the venomous nature of his radical internet trolls (many of whom are paid), this is completely shocking to everyone."

Calling her "wacky," a "RINO" (Republican In Name Only) and swapping her surname from Greene to "Brown" ("Green grass turns Brown when it begins to ROT!"), Donald Trump rescinded his support for the Georgia representative and suggested he could back a primary challenger against her.

Ms Greene claims the president's "aggressive rhetoric" is in retaliation for her support for releasing files about disgraced paedophile financier Jeffrey Epstein.

After the US government shutdown ended, a petition to vote on the full release of the files about Epstein received enough signatures - including that of Ms Greene - to bring it to a vote in the House of Representatives.

Ms Greene claimed text messages she sent to Mr Trump over the Epstein files "sent him over the edge," writing on social media: "Of course he's coming after me hard to make an example to scare all the other Republicans before next week's vote to release the Epstein files."

She went on: "It's astonishing really, how hard he's fighting to stop the Epstein files from coming out that he actually goes to this level."

High-profile figures, including Mr Trump, have been referenced in some of the documents.

The White House has said the "selectively leaked emails" were an attempt to "create a fake narrative to smear President Trump", who has consistently denied any involvement or knowledge about Epstein's sex trafficking operation.

Mr Trump has called the Epstein files a "hoax" created by the Democrats to "deflect" from the shutdown.

In another post on X, Ms Greene wrote: "I never thought that fighting to release the Epstein files, defending women who were victims of rape, and fighting to expose the web of rich powerful elites would have caused this, but here we are.

"And it truly speaks for itself. There needs to be a new way forward."

Epstein took his own life in prison in 2019 while awaiting a trial for sex trafficking charges and was accused of running a "vast network" of underage girls for sex. He pleaded not guilty.

Following a conviction for soliciting prostitution from a minor in 2008, he was registered as a sex offender.

Mr Trump has consistently denied knowledge of Epstein's crimes.
