Marjorie Taylor Greene shares how Trump called her directly and said his friends would get hurt if the Epstein files were released. That phone call is what ended her career in Congress. Marjorie is a mother, businesswoman, and Christian nationalist who represented Georgia's 14th Congressional district in Washington, DC. She walked away from five years inside a system she now describes as a thousand times more corrupt than most Americans imagine. The Republican Party she gave millions to never defended her. The president she campaigned for called her a traitor. This conversation looks at how presidents get compromised before they take office, why loyalty to one man turned MAGA into a cult, and what happens in the rooms where votes get changed at 3:00 AM. She names the donors, the lobbies, and the admission from Trump that broke her loyalty. We also get into Iran, Christian Zionism, the Q Anon psyop, Operation Warp Speed, and why she believes RFK Jr. is being squeezed inside HHS. Her honesty about being wrong about Trump in 2020 is the most unexpected part.  If you have ever wondered whether voting harder fixes any of this, her answer is no.
