Greene Again Urges Split Between Red, Blue States

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene has reignited her call for a "national divorce," contending that political divisions in the US have grown too deep to bridge and warning that the country is "no longer safe for any of us." The congresswoman on Monday reiterated her previous call for the United States to break into red and blue states—a call that didn't go over well the last time she made it, Mediaite notes. But "there is nothing left to talk about with the left. They hate us," Greene insisted in her lengthy post on X, referencing the slaying of conservative activist Charlie Kirk: "They assassinated our nice guy who actually talked to them peacefully debating ideas."

"Then millions on the left celebrated and made clear they want all of us dead," she continued, noting that her preferred outcome is "a peaceful national divorce." (A poll earlier this year, however, found that idea unpopular with Americans, the Hill reports.) She also predicted "a spiritual revival" as a result of Kirk's death, and criticized GOP leadership for lacking resolve, arguing that Republicans have failed to counter what she views as harmful Democratic policies. She singled out an upcoming congressional vote on a continuing resolution, claiming it funds "transgender policies" instead of priorities backed by President Trump. "We had 9 months to get it done, but for reasons I don't understand or agree with, it wasn't the priority," she wrote.
