Ten months into Donald Trump’s second term, Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene has positioned herself as a surprising critic of the administration’s policies — and as a torchbearer for the “America First” agenda that she believes the president has drifted from, she told NBC News in recent interviews. Greene, who has long been one of his most outspoken allies, said that Trump personally inspired her run for Congress in Georgia in 2022 and described her political identity as rooted in his promise to represent what she calls “the forgotten man and woman of America.” “That was me,” she told Tucker Carlson recently, recalling how she saw Trump’s campaign as a “referendum to the Republican Party on behalf of the American people … that were just so sick of Washington, D.C.” Now, Greene finds herself at the center of a divide inside the Republican Party over how deeply the U.S. should involve itself abroad, as surveys show the state of the economy is top of mind for many Americans and following a round of elections that focused on affordability. “No one cares about the foreign countries. No one cares about the never-ending amount of foreign leaders coming to the White House every single week,” Greene told NBC News. The dispute underscores a broader rift over whether Trump’s presidency still reflects the populist message that powered his rise. And it reflects a MAGA movement preparing for a future without Trump at the top of the ticket, with the next generation of leaders figuring out where to take the base he built. Donald Trump Nov 10 Trump responds to criticism from Marjorie Taylor Greene: ‘She's lost her way' Donald Trump 23 hours ago Trump defends his MAGA bona fides amid backlash from his base On Friday night, just hours after NBC News published this story, Trump decided he had had enough. He went on social media and said he was withdrawing his endorsement of her. He said while the U.S. is now the “‘HOTTEST’ Country anywhere in the World…all I see ‘Wacky’ Marjorie do is COMPLAIN, COMPLAIN, COMPLAIN!” Trump also accused her of going “Far Left” and suggested that her criticism of him was personal, because he didn’t think she should run for senator or governor. He also said he was open to supporting another Republican primary challenger to Greene. Since taking office in January, Trump has made 14 foreign trips, with stops in Italy, the Middle East, Canada, Asia and the U.K., among others, according to an NBC News analysis. In the same period, he’s visited 15 U.S. states. That includes a trip to Alaska to meet Russia’s Vladimir Putin to discuss ending the war in Ukraine. By the same point in Trump’s first term, he had visited 27 states. Trump also said that he expects to travel to China early next year to meet with President Xi Jinping. And Bloomberg reported Thursday that he may attend the World Economic Forum, a gathering of the political and business elite, next year in Davos, Switzerland. “We didn’t elect the president to go out there and travel the world and end the foreign wars,” Greene said. “We elected the president to stop sending tax dollars and weapons for the foreign wars — to completely not engage anymore. Watching the foreign leaders come to the White House through a revolving door is not helping Americans.” “One of the big campaign issues is Americans were fed up with foreign wars,” she added. “It’s like, get us out of this.” While Trump did promise on the campaign trail to quickly end the wars in Ukraine and the Gaza Strip, the latest national NBC News poll shows Republicans overwhelmingly believe he has lived up to their expectations on foreign policy (82%), including 66% of Republicans who do not identify with the MAGA movement. But for Greene and others, it’s a matter of priorities; they argue that the economy should be the clear focus. “It’s not that I want a very different foreign policy,” said one Trump ally with a lens on foreign policy, who was granted anonymity to speak candidly. “He just needs to be messaging more…

Originally appeared on E! Online Jimmy Kimmel is providing more insight into the passing of his dear friend. Less than a week after Cleto Escobedo III died at age 59, the “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” host shared that his late band leader was undergoing treatment at a medical center leading up to his passing. And while he didn’t specify what type of care his childhood friend was receiving, Kimmel revealed that he has taken steps to give back to Escobedo’s hard-working medical team in Los Angeles. “Cleto was always kind and eager to help others. As we mourn his loss, we have started two fundraisers to celebrate his life and give back,” the comedian wrote on Intagram Nov. 14. “The first is for UCLA Medical Center where he received such incredible care. Together we can help vulnerable patients and families in need of financial assistance during hard times.” Closing out his message, he added that he will also donate to The Animal Foundation in his and Escobedo’s hometown of Las Vegas in order to “honor his love of animals.” PHOTOS: Celebrity Deaths: 2025’s Fallen Stars This isn’t the first time Kimmel has spoken out about the passing of Escobedo, whose cause of death has not yet been disclosed.

A BASE jumper was safely rescued after he was seen dangling precariously from a cliff wall in the Kane Creek Area of Moab, Utah. The 43-year-old man crashed into the wall around 1 p.m. on Wednesday, according to a statement shared on Thursday by the Grand County EMS. First responders reached the jumper at 3:15 p.m., treated him for moderate injuries and secured him to prevent the risk of further fall, the statement said. The man was lifted out of the cliff at 4 p.m. Grand County EMS worked with Grand County Search and Rescue, the Grand County Sheriff’s Office, Classic Air Medical and the DPS Aero Bureau to conduct this rescue. The man is now in stable, non-life-threatening condition, according to officials, who have not released his name. After crashing into the cliff wall, the BASE jumper could be seen from town hanging hundreds of feet in the air, held up by his parachute which got caught on a rock above him. “I think if he hadn’t hung up on that rock, he would have fallen to his death,” Scott Solle, the vice commander of the Grand County Search and Rescue Team, told NBC News. “I think he got lucky,” Solle added. This incident occurred due to an “off-heading opening” of the jumper’s parachute, Andy Smith, executive director of Grand County EMS, said. “When the parachute deployed, it rotated the jumper approximately 180–360 degrees,” Smith said. “In this situation, if a jumper deploys facing away from the cliff, an off-heading opening can spin them back toward the rock face.” The margin for error is extremely small in BASE jumping because the jumper is so close to the cliff at the moment of deployment, according to Smith. “When a jumper is rotated toward the cliff with insufficient space to recover, it often results in a direct impact,” Smith said. Grand County officials rescue BASE jumpers on a regular basis during this time of year, Solle stated. November is a particularly popular time for BASE jumping in Moab because of the cool temperatures and calm weather conditions, he explained.
