(The Center Square) – Less than 24 hours after the surprise resignation of U.S. Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene , the Georgia Republican received thanks from the state Republican Party and criticism from President Donald Trump .

Greene said in a Friday night social media post that she had received personal attacks and death threats for her recent stances criticizing her own party and that Trump “hatefully dumped tens of millions of dollars against me and then tried to destroy me.” Greene, who said she is resigning on Jan. 5, had publicly called for the release of the Jeffrey Epstein files before the House and Senate voted last week to approve the release.
