Greene,who resigned from Congress amid disputes with President Donald Trump and has become increasingly critical of Trump and her party,has expressed interest in founding a new political party. She announced in June her intention to leave the Republican Party, inspired by Tucker Carlson’s similar decision, citing disillusionment with the current party system, which she describes as “America LAST.” Greene indicated she is engaged in serious discussions about forming a third party focused on american interests, aiming to unite serious candidates across the political spectrum. Other figures, including Carlson, have also expressed intentions to build new political parties, reflecting a broader anti-establishment sentiment that is growing among both conservative and progressive factions.
