Marjorie Taylor Greene has issued a stark message on social media, emphasizing that she is not suicidal amid her vocal campaign for the government to release files related to Jeffrey Epstein. Greene, a Republican representative, has emerged as a prominent advocate for Epstein’s victims, aligning with only a select few Republicans petitioning for a complete disclosure of the Epstein files.
Despite her efforts, allies of former President Donald Trump have actively impeded the release of these files, which Trump himself has labeled as “totally irrelevant.” Greene took to social media platform X, formerly known as Twitter, to reiterate her call for transparency, declaring, “The Epstein rape and pedophile network must be exposed.”
Addressing potential threats to her safety, Greene posted a follow-up message insisting that if she were to meet an untimely end, similar to Epstein’s death in a jail cell, an investigation must be launched into potential attempts to silence her by powerful individuals. “I am not suicidal and one of the happiest and healthiest people you will meet,” Greene wrote, urging people to unveil any sinister actions aimed at suppressing the truth.
In a surprising divergence from her previous alignment with Trump, Greene has distanced herself from his stance on the Epstein files amid the scandal. Previously a strong supporter within the MAGA movement, she has now taken a firm stand against Trump’s position. Earlier, Trump’s circle had even discouraged Republican lawmakers from supporting the release of the files, framing such support as hostile. However, Greene has maintained that her actions are not aimed at undermining any administration but rather at seeking justice for the victims.
During a press conference, Greene stressed her enduring support for victims of sexual abuse, seeking to keep the focus on the victims rather than partisan conflicts. She criticized Democrats for apparently neglecting their duty to expose Epstein’s activities during their tenure and called for the release of the Epstein files to redirect attention to pressing domestic issues like healthcare, housing, and economic struggles.
Green has also pushed for Trump to meet with Epstein’s victims, but her request went unanswered. At press conferences, she condemned the Department of Justice’s lack of transparency with the files, contrasting with Trump’s characterization of the controversy as a “Democrat hoax.”
Greene’s involvement marks a significant shift as she publicly breaks from Trump’s standing on this matter. Despite previously moving in the same social circles as Epstein, Trump asserts they had severed ties before Epstein’s first arrest in 2006. As pressure for transparency continues, Greene remains steadfast in her commitment to the victims, pledging to stay active in the inquiry and to advocate for those wronged.
