Could Marjorie Taylor Greene be leaving Georgia? House in Rome sells

Former congresswoman Majorie Taylor Greene has stayed in the political spotlight in the months since her public and volatile split from President Trump and ultimate resignation from the U.S. House of Representatives.

The race to replace Greene put a Trump-backed district attorney against a seasoned Democrat, and while the "MAGA warrior" Clay Fuller took home the win in the special election, Shawn Harris performed the best of any Democrat in the district in recent memory.

Harris pointed to the "Marjorie Taylor Greene Effect" in northwest Georgia, saying she represents a real (and growing) divide on America's political right.

Once seen as the matriarchal head of the MAGA movement, Greene has only increased the fissure between herself and President Trump's agenda as she continues to speak out against the handling of the Epstein files, the war in Iran, the affordability crisis and more on social media and publicly.

Her comments have spurred anger from those still in Trump's inner circle, most recently with right-wing personality Laura Loomer over the sale of Greene's Rome, Georgia home.

Greene sells home in Rome for $1.1 million

According to Floyd County property records, the home previously owned by Greene and her ex-husband, Perry, was put on the market earlier this year.

The property, located on Rome's southwest side, sold for $1.1 million on March 19. The home is more than 5,000 square feet and sits on a 10.64 acre lot.

The home was built in 1964, and purchased by Greene and her then-husband in 2020 for $610,000. The front of the home has large, white columns, not dissimilar to the White House, and red brick leading down to a driveway. Images of the home's interior were not available through the online listing.

Greene has previously shared video from the property on social media.

Throughout her tenure in Congress, Greene said her home was "swatted" multiple times, including once on Christmas morning.

"Swatting" refers to a type of criminal hoax in which someone calls emergency services falsely claiming there is a threat of violence at a given location.

During one instance of "swatting" at Greene's home in Rome, a woman was killed in a crash with a bomb squad member vehicle that was responding to the call, according to ABC News.

"I'm heartsick right now," Greene said in a post on X following the crash in 2024. "These violent political threats have fatal consequences. It's an undue strain on our law enforcement who must treat them seriously. The officer was responding to protect my life. And now, a woman has lost her life because of this despicable act."

Loomer accuses Greene of selling home to flee US

On May 11, conservative political personality and self-proclaimed investigative journalist Laura Loomer accused Greene of trying to flee the country after the sale of her Rome property.

"Source tells me that MTG just sold her home in Rome, Georgia and moved to Costa Rica with (Brian Glenn). All that insider trading sure paid off. She just posted this photo of her new home in Costa Rica on Instagram. She abandoned her constituents and fled the country," Loomer wrote on X.

She included a screenshot of Greene's May 11 photo of a tropical landscape with the caption, "I'm so thankful to start the next chapter with (Brian Glenn)."

Glenn, a conservative journalist and media personality, and Greene were engaged in December of 2025.

Loomer went on to claim Greene now lives on a $5 million estate in Costa Rica.

"This is proof she was always planning to leave Congress. She just used President Trump as a scapegoat for abandoning her constituents and fleeing the country," Loomer wrote on X. "Does this mean she's now a foreigner?"

Greene says 'Lying Larry is at it again'

Taking up Trump's habit of creating critical nicknames for his opponents (including "Marjorie Traitor Greene"), Greene responded to Loomer's accusations by saying "Lying Larry is at it again."

"No wonder they won't give her a White House hard pass to be part of the WH press pool. Lying Larry is not a journalist," Greene said in a post on X. "Thankfully and proudly, my wealth and assets come from years of hard work from a family construction business before I ever ran for Congress."

Greene also denied insider trading claims, and said all of her finances have been reported legally through the FEC. She said she "won't apologize" for her financial success through what she called the "American dream," and that Loomer was "wealth shaming."

She also noted her signing of a discharge petition for legislation blocking stock trading in Congress, something she said was "popular" but not brought to the floor for a vote.

"Oh and I'm 100% a proud American who lives in Georgia!" Greene said. "And for Costa Rica, yes Brian and I love it! It's a beautiful country filled with beautiful people! We love to travel all over the world and will share lots of pics and videos!"
