Full Marjorie Taylor Greene resignation video cites Donald Trump feud and more as MTG quits Congress

U.S. Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, an early ardent supporter of President Donald Trump and his Make America Great Again agenda, announced in a resignation video that she is planning to resign from Congress come January 2026. Greene’s move to quit Congress comes amid an ongoing feud with Republican Party leadership - particularly Trump - over the release of the Epstein files. She said she had to leave her mother's side while her father was having brain surgery to remove a cancer in order to go to Congress and vote against Trump's impeachment. "Loyalty should be a two way street," Greene said. "My self-worth is not defined by a man but instead by God, who created everything in existence." It remains to be seen if Greene will run for office in any upcoming elections.

VICTOR DAVIS HANSON: No Congress, No Coherence—The Left’s Post-Trump Identity Crisis

Democrats are experiencing an “intellectual poverty.” They have no power in the White House, in Congress, or the Supreme Court, so they’ve resorted to theatrics, street protests, viral stunts, and inflammatory rhetoric. Why aren't Democrats offering serious alternatives to Donald Trump's agenda? From trade deficits to foreign policy, Victor Davis Hanson points out that many on the Left once held views that mirrored Trump’s—yet now, they offer little more than resistance for resistance’s sake on today’s episode of “ Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words.” “ I see these people in their late 60s and early 70s, mostly white people, and they seem to have the same signs, the same agenda, and they leave at the same time. … And you were doing that when you were 18, 19, and 20, and you haven’t changed. You’ve learned nothing and forgotten nothing. “ And so, when they wonder why the Harvard/Harris Poll or other polls don’t show Trump dropping … they look for alternatives. They see nothing but street theater. Maybe they think that’s going to win them the midterms.”

Glenn Beck’s Reaction to Trump’s REVOLUTIONARY Speech to Congress

In his first speech to Congress as the 47th president, Donald Trump made it clear that America is back! And the polls reflect that, with CBS News finding that 76% of respondents approved of Trump’s speech. Glenn and Stu discuss why this number may be so high: maybe more Republicans watched, or maybe it was just a great, optimistic speech. But many Democrats in Congress and the Legacy Media still deny that Americans gave Trump a mandate to restore America in the 2024 election. So, Glenn and Stu review the data. Plus, they highlight some other big moments during the speech, including Trump’s decision to list out the many, many crazy things that DOGE found our government is funding.

Democrat Representative Al Green was removed from the House of Representatives after repeatedly heckling President Donald Trump during his speech to a joint session of Congress.

On Tuesday, Speaker of the House Mike Johnson (R-La.) repeatedly warned Green (D-Texas) to stop interrupting the 47th president.

“Members are directed to uphold and maintain decorum in the House and to cease any further disruptions. That’s your warning,” Johnson said from the front of the room.

“Members are engaging in willful and continuing breaches of decorum and the chair is prepared to direct the sergeant at arms to restore order to the joint session,” Johnson continued.

“Mr. Green, take your seat,” Johnson warned Green. “Take your seat, sir.”

Johnson then removed the Democrat from the chamber by ordering the Sergeant At Arms to restore order.

Green stood, waving his cane, and shouted, “You don’t have a mandate!” In response, Republicans rose from their seats, drowning him out with chants of “USA.”

Once guards began to remove Green, House Republicans sang “hey, hey, hey, goodbye.”

Since returning to office, Green has called for the impeachment of Trump.

The Insane Spending Spree Congress Doesn’t Want You to Know About

Speaker Mike Johnson has quietly gone back on his word to prevent a massive omnibus spending bill before Christmas. Christopher Bedford, senior editor for politics at Blaze News, says Johnson is particularly squishy when it comes to house negotiations and will relent to lawmakers who don’t want to change their travel plans. Bedford even says Johnson will likely offer concessions to big-spending Democrats since he can’t appease Freedom Caucus members who want to slash government spending.

A former Republican congressional candidate has been charged after allegations of threatening to kill his political opponent in 2021. 

William Braddock has been accused of making the alleged threats on June 8th, 2021, which include threatening to “call up [his] Russian-Ukrainian hit squad” to take out his rival, Representative Anna Paulina Luna (R-Fla.).

Prosecutors stated that the Republican candidate had been caught on audio calling Luna a “dead squirrel” and “a f—ing speed bump in the road.” 

A conservative activist recorded Braddock where he can be heard making threats against Luna.

“I really don’t want to have to end anybody’s life for the good of the people of the United States of America,” he was heard saying in the audio, as reported by Politico.

“That will break my heart. But if it needs to be done, it needs to be done. Luna is a f—ing speed bump in the road. She’s a dead squirrel that you run over every day when you leave the neighborhood.”

Braddock then went on to deny making any threats and insisted that the audio may have been altered. A judge later green-lit a restraining order against him.

After leaving the U.S., Braddock went to the Philippines and was eventually extradited there. The Justice Department said he was charged with one count of interstate transmission of a true threat to injure another person. 

On Thursday, he appeared in federal court in Los Angeles.

After winning the election, Luna was sworn into Congress for the first time in January 2023. 

Luna disclosed earlier this month that a “very serious shooting threat” was received by her office. She was vague about the specifics of the threat due to an ongoing investigation into it by law enforcement.
