Marjorie Taylor Greene launched a fierce tirade against President Donald Trump and accused him of betraying the American people on Sunday morning.
The Georgia congresswoman and former MAGA loyalist joined CNN's State of the Union with host Dana Bash for the first time since Trump branded her a traitor over a series of public disagreements - including the release of the Epstein files.
As the chasm in the Republican Party grows deeper, Greene took the opportunity to scorn the president for welcoming Syrian president Ahmed al-Sharaa to the White House this week.
Trump laughed and joked with Al-Sharaa in the Oval Office - despite the fact the Muslim leader has long been sanctioned as a specially-designated global terrorist.
The Saudi-born leader joined al-Qaeda in Iraq just before the US invasion in 2003. He was captured by American forces and imprisoned for five years until 2011 - and there has been a $10 million bounty on his head since.
Greene referenced this on Sunday, saying that the President's actions were a disgrace and slap in the face to the thousands of veterans who have fought in the Middle East.
She attacked Trump for welcoming him into the White House on the 250-year anniversary of the Marines.
In her latest attempt to call balls and strikes on Trump, Greene doubled down on the fact that she has disagreed with Trump, and that she is allowed to do that as someone who is not subservient to party leaders and big-dollar donors, but to her own constituents.
Speaking about Trump's meeting with Al-Sharaa specifically, she noted that it was 'very hurtful' that he 'honored the Syrian President, who is an al-Qaeda terrorist and was wanted by our government with a $10 million bounty up until March of this year.'
'I think that was very hurtful to the great men and women who served over in the Middle East and were sent there, and many of them that were killed and injured and live with PTSD to this day, from fighting al Qaeda,' Greene added.
Greene stopped short of calling herself more 'America First' than Trump when prompted to do so by Bash, but she did note that 'promoting H1B visas to replace American jobs, bringing in 600,000 Chinese students to replace American students... are not America first positions.'
The Georgia Congresswoman also added that she would 'love to see Air Force One be parked and stay home, and there be nothing but a constant focus in the White House on a domestic agenda that helps the American people once and for all.'
In the wide-ranging interview, which lasted about 20 minutes, Greene also doubled down on her push to release the Department of Justice's files relating to financier and convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein, who was a known associate of top government, media, and business leaders both in the United States and the United Kingdom.
However, she maintained that nothing in the files would be damaging to Trump, per the female victims that she has spoken to and given a platform to share their stories.
'I stand with these women. I stand with rape victims, I stand with children who are in terrible sex abuse situations, and I stand with survivors of trafficking and those that are trapped in sex trafficking', Greene told Bash, adding that she would not apologize, and would also keep playing her 'small part' for the files to be released because 'rich and powerful people' should not be protected if they have done anything wrong.
Bash also questioned Greene's calls for politicians to tone down their rhetoric after the Congresswoman revealed that she has seen a significant uptick in threats after Trump branded her a 'traitor.'

When asked specifically about her past associations with 'White Nationalist' Nick Fuentes - whose conference she spoke at in 2022 - Greene noted that she stands by everyone's free speech rights and thinks it is vital for journalists like Bash and Tucker Carlson to keep asking questions and move the public discourse along.
Greene also called the assassination of conservative activist, top Trump ally, and Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk a wake-up call for the real-world impact that vile online rhetoric can have.
'I would like to say humbly, I'm sorry for taking part in the toxic politics it's, it's very bad for our country, and I've, it's been something I've thought about a lot, especially since Charlie Kirk was assassinated,' Greene told Bash.
'I'm only responsible for myself and my own words and actions,' she continued, adding that she has been working to 'put down the knives in politics' and focus on delivering solutions to problems plaguing Americans of all stripes.
'No matter what side of the aisle we're on, we have far more in common than we have differences, and we need to be able to respect each other with our disagreements,' Greene added.
