Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene of Georgia reportedly took to social media this weekend with a pointed warning: she is not suicidal, and if harm comes to her, Americans should look to the powerful interests threatened by her push to expose Jeffrey Epstein’s secrets.
“I am not suicidal and one of the happiest healthiest people you will meet,” Ms. Greene wrote Saturday on X, the platform formerly known as Twitter.
Anchoring her statement in faith, she added, “With that said, if something happens to me, I ask you all to find out which foreign government or powerful people would take heinous actions to stop the information from coming out.”
The Republican lawmaker linked her warning directly to her support for legislation that would force the release of Epstein’s case files. “Not only about this issue, but because of the truth that I have been speaking,” she continued. “The People understand what I’m saying.”
Ms. Greene is one of just four House Republicans who have signed onto a discharge petition to compel a floor vote on the matter.
The petition reached the 218 supporters required for action following last week’s election of Representative Adelita Grijalva, a Democrat from Arizona.
While former President Donald J. Trump has long promised transparency surrounding the Epstein saga, his administration has come out against the discharge petition.
The White House called the effort a “very hostile act,” underscoring how contentious the issue remains even inside the Republican Party.
For her part, Ms. Greene has not wavered in her support for the president. But she has made clear she is willing to break with party leadership when she believes principle demands it. “I told them, ‘You didn’t get me elected. I do not work for you; I work for my district,’” she said in comments published over the weekend in a New York Times profile. “We aren’t supposed to just be whipped on our votes because they’re telling us what to do with this scary threat, or saying ‘We’ll primary you,’ or that we won’t get invited to the White House events.”
Her stance on the Epstein files, she emphasized, is not about scoring partisan points. “This is not about a pissing contest between political parties or political enemies,” she wrote on Saturday. She also stressed that she does not believe Mr. Trump himself had any involvement in Epstein’s crimes.
Instead, she framed her fight as a moral one. “I stand with girls and women who are sexually abused and raped. Period. Every time. At all times,” she wrote.
By invoking the possibility of retaliation, Ms. Greene cast herself as standing against entrenched interests determined to keep the public in the dark.
Her message resonated with many conservatives who have long argued that the Epstein case represents a nexus of corruption, privilege, and exploitation shielded from accountability.
In taking a public stand, Ms. Greene once again underscored her willingness to confront not only Democrats but also the leadership of her own party, insisting her loyalty rests with her voters—and, in this case, with victims of abuse who she believes deserve the truth.
