Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene trading Capitol Hill for Costa Rican beaches during Christmas raises eyebrows among even her staunchest supporters.
The Daily Mail reported that Greene, a prominent figure in the MAGA movement, spent the holiday with her new fiancé, Brian Glenn, in a sun-soaked getaway while still on the congressional payroll, just weeks before her resignation takes effect on Jan. 5, 2026.
Representing a conservative district in northwest Georgia since her swearing-in on Jan. 3, 2021, Greene has been a vocal advocate for America First policies.
Her journey took a sharp turn recently after a public falling-out with President Donald Trump over issues like foreign policy, health care, and the release of Jeffrey Epstein-related files.
Greene didn’t hold back, accusing Trump of betraying his base by straying from his core pledges and even calling his second-term agenda a disappointment to voters.
Critics have noted the timing of her resignation, set just days after hitting the five-year mark needed to qualify for a congressional pension worth about $9,000 annually.
While her political exit looms, Greene found solace in Costa Rica on Christmas Day, spotted hand-in-hand with Glenn at a local market and along the shoreline.
Her children and their partners later joined the tropical retreat, turning it into a family affair during the House’s annual winter break.
Amidst the holiday, Greene stayed active on social media, defending allies like Tucker Carlson and wishing supporters well, proving she’s not stepping out of the spotlight just yet.
Adding to the festive mood, Glenn, a White House reporter for Real America’s Voice, announced their engagement just before Christmas, sharing the moment from a Washington, D.C., steakhouse.
“She said ‘yes,’” Glenn posted on social media, describing how he proposed after drinks arrived at their table, a surprise that left both overjoyed.
Glenn, who first noticed Greene’s captivating presence at a 2022 Trump rally, plans to whisk her away from Washington’s chaos, splitting time between Georgia and D.C. for his reporting.
While Glenn remains a Trump supporter and will cover the president during the 2026 midterms, Greene’s stance is more reserved, promising to stay out of the race to replace her unless candidates drag her name into the fray.
“I intend to 'stay out of the race to replace me, but I won't stay silent if candidates make the race about me,'” Greene warned, signaling she’s ready to push back against any opportunistic politicking at her expense.
Her exit from Congress might mark the end of a chapter, but it’s clear Greene intends to keep her voice heard, whether from a beach in Costa Rica or back home in Georgia, as conservatives watch to see what’s next for this polarizing figure.
