Former Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) on Monday said she’s “done” with the Republican Party, which she said has turned into the “America LAST” party.
Her comments came after right-wing commentator and former Fox News host Tucker Carlson said he was done with the party after voting Republican his entire life.
Carlson called the GOP “immoral” and said it’s “not loyal to the United States.”
“Tucker is not the only one who is done supporting the Republican Party,” she wrote on X, saying she speaks for “A LOT” of people who “are absolutely fed up and will not support a party that betrays its voters and country.”
Like Carlson, Greene said she won’t be joining the Democratic Party.
“But we are DONE with the America LAST Republican Party,” she wrote.
Greene was once a staunch Trump ally who was often seen by his side.

However, the two had a falling-out last year over her push to release the files related to late convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, who was once friends with Trump.
Trump, who had previously promised to release those files, instead tried to block them. He called them a “Democrat hoax” and branded Greene a “traitor.”
Greene resigned from Congress amid her feud with Trump and the threats she received because of it. She also apologized for her role in what she called “toxic politics” and earlier this year said that Trump’s MAGA movement “was all a lie.”
In April, she appeared with Rep. Ro Khanna (D-Calif.) on CNN to talk about areas where they agreed, such as ending the war in Iran and the release of the Epstein files, as well as calling for “more dialogue” on areas of disagreement.
