Greene said she "takes great offense" to the White House's statement, given her loyalty to Trump over the years.
"I put my life and my fortune on the line to get that man elected, and whoever said that has their job because of people like me who fought all the horrible Republicans who stabbed him in the back after January 6," Greene said, referring to the Republicans who voted to impeach Trump.
"I was one of those who fought on the front lines and said, he is the leader of our party, he is the president, and we are going to make him president again," she continued. "Well, that coward attacked me and attacked anybody by calling it a 'hostile act.'"
Earlier in the day, Greene attended a news conference with survivors of Epstein's crimes. She has also expressed support for the legislation that would require the files to be released.
After the survivors spoke at the press conference, Trump told reporters in the Oval Office that the Epstein files are a "Democrat hoax that won't go away."
"The hostile act was Jeffrey Epstein raping 14-year-old girls," Greene added. "That was the hostile act. And it's not a hoax!"
