On Sunday night, Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA), ahead of her resignation next month, appeared on CBS’s 60 Minutes to discuss her recent split with President Donald Trump and her decision to leave Congress.
“He was extremely angry at me that I had signed the discharge petition to release the files,” Greene said in the interview, in reference to the Jeffrey Epstein files. “They deserve it. And he was furious with me,” she added.
Now, the president, already not a fan of 60 Minutes, has responded to Greene’s comments.
“The only reason Marjorie “Traitor” Brown (Green turns Brown under stress!) went BAD is that she was JILTED by the President of the United States (Certainly not the first time she has been jilted!),” Trump said on Truth Social early Monday. “Too much work, not enough time, and her ideas are, NOW, really BAD – She sort of reminds me of a Rotten Apple! Marjorie is not AMERICA FIRST or MAGA, because nobody could have changed her views so fast, and her new views are those of a very dumb person.”

What followed was a long run-on sentence:
“That was proven last night when washed up, Trump hating, 60 Minutes “correspondent,” Lesley Stahl, who still owes me an apology from when she attacked me on the show (with serious conviction!), that Hunter Biden’s LAPTOP FROM HELL was produced by Russia, not Hunter himself (TOTALLY PROVEN WRONG!), interviewed a very poorly prepared Traitor, who in her confusion made many really stupid statements.”
He went on to go after the ownership of CBS News, Paramount/Skydance, who has traditionally been seen as close to Trump.
“My real problem with the show, however, wasn’t the low IQ traitor, it was that the new ownership of 60 Minutes, Paramount, would allow a show like this to air. THEY ARE NO BETTER THAN THE OLD OWNERSHIP, who just paid me millions of Dollars for FAKE REPORTING about your favorite President, ME! Since they bought it, 60 Minutes has actually gotten WORSE! Oh well, far worse things can happen,” Trump added.
Q: Should Netflix be allowed to buy Warner Brothers?
TRUMP: That’s a question. They have a very big market share. I’ll be involved in that decision pic.twitter.com/pEgMxKi2XP

That last line drew attention, because also on Monday morning, Paramount announced that it was planning a hostile bid for Warner Bros Discovery, after that company agreed to be acquired last week by Netflix. While the Trump Administration has been seen as supportive of Paramount buying WBD, reporting over the weekend confirmed that Netflix’s Ted Sarandos had courted Trump personally, and the president may not be as pro-Paramount as previously believed.
