Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene on Wednesday dismissed reports she plans to run for president in 2028, calling them “baseless rumors” and saying her sole focus remains representing Georgia’s 14th Congressional District.

“The only thing that I’m focused on is being a representative for my district,” Greene told NewsNation, adding that she blocked the reporter who published the speculation.

The denial comes after a media report suggested Greene was telling people about potential presidential ambitions. Greene compared the report to false claims by political commentator Laura Loomer that she would announce a gubernatorial bid on “The View.”

Greene dismissed allegations from Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., that she’s on a “revenge tour” after Trump blocked her Senate ambitions.

“Here’s some tea for you,” Ocasio-Cortez said during an Instagram livestream. “Marjorie Taylor Greene wanted to run for Senate in Georgia. She wanted to run for Senate earlier this year in the state of Georgia, she wanted to be the Republican nominee for Senate. So, she was gearing up for that statewide race, and Trump told her no,” the New York Democrat added.
