Marjorie Taylor Greene, who resigned from Congress earlier this year after a public spat with President Donald Trump, is now accusing him of the most serious crime defined in the Constitution.<\/p>\n<p>Speaking with CNN\u2019s Kaitlan Collins on Wednesday, Greene responded to allegations in a new book that the White House held high-level meetings on the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/watch-kamala-harris-gives-laughable-answer-asked-biden-admin-didnt-release-epstein-files\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Jeffrey Epstein files<\/a>. She called Trump a \u201ctraitor\u201d for his handling of the situation.<\/p>\n<p>The book, written by New York Times reporters Maggie Haberman and Jonathan Swan, says that Trump took many figures to task \u2014 including the late Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk \u2014 for focusing too much on Epstein, according to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mediaite.com\/media\/news\/marjorie-taylor-greene-calls-trump-a-traitor-over-handling-of-epstein-files\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Mediaite<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>When asked to respond, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/mtg-may-leaked-trumps-location-unhinged-activists-white-house\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Greene<\/a> said this was \u201cnot new news\u201d to her.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cUnfortunately, that was something that I lived through,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI watched the speaker of the House shut down the government for, and keep the House completely out of session, for eight weeks, in the fall of 2025, simply because he was under orders of the president, and his team, not to do anything in the House of Representatives because they were doing everything they could do to stop that resolution from passing the House, the same resolution that I signed, the discharge petition, to force to a vote on the floor,\u201d Greene alleged.<\/p>\n<p>She went on to say, \u201cThis doesn\u2019t shock me that his team was paralyzed. But I\u2019ll tell you what it is. It\u2019s absolutely ridiculous and unforgivable.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019re talking about pedophiles and rapists of the elite class of people that never get held accountable for anything,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo, if they were paralyzed and scared and didn\u2019t know what to do about releasing the Epstein files? These people are absolutely absurd. They don\u2019t deserve the American people\u2019s trust.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs a matter of fact, we should consider them as \u2014 they should be considered traitors,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey are traitors, the ones that refuse to release the Epstein files, want to cover up for pedophiles and rapists, and all sorts of disgusting things in these files; those are the traitors to the American people, and they should be ashamed of themselves.\u201d<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">Former Rep.
