MTG says she has ‘zero plans’ for political future after House resignation

.

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) signaled on Sunday her time in political office is over after she exits the House of Representatives in early January.

In a 60 Minutes interview, Greene told host Lesley Stahl she has “zero plans” for her political future and pushed back on reports she is eyeing a bid for the presidency in 2028.

“I have zero plans, zero desire to run for president. I would hate the Senate. I’m not running for governor,” she said. “I’m not your politician with a whole itinerary of plans or political ambitions.”

Greene, who has served in the House for nearly five years, announced her resignation ahead of the Thanksgiving holiday after a public falling out with President Donald Trump, particularly over the Epstein files.

Greene detailed some of the back-and-forth between her and the president over the Epstein files on Sunday, telling Stahl Trump was “furious” with her after she signed a discharge petition forcing a vote on the full release of the files.

“He was extremely angry at me that I had signed the discharge petition to release the files,” she said. “He said that it was going to hurt people.”

Trump would later reverse his position on the files, calling on House Republicans to pass the bill mandating the full release with victim protection. That ended up passing by a vote of 427-1.

Greene also had some words for her Republican colleagues. She said after Trump’s win in 2024, they began “kissing his a**.”

“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** and decided to put on a MAGA hat for the first time,” Greene said.

The interview comes as Greene’s time in the House ticks down. She is set to resign on Jan. 5, but has recently been absent from votes, garnering criticism from multiple House Republicans.
