Her announcement came in the form of an open letter she posted on X, and a video message to her constituents, which was also put out on the same platform. In both the video and the letter, Greene explained why she was deciding to resign, outlining her differences with the president and by extension the Make America Great Again (MAGA) movement, of which she used to be a staunch supporter.
