Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene publicly criticized the Trump administration, voicing frustration with its recent foreign policy decisions, including a mineral deal with Ukraine and ongoing talks with Iran.
While Greene did not name President Donald Trump directly, a lengthy post on X included a number of criticisms toward the direction of his administration.
“I represent the base and when I’m frustrated and upset over the direction of things, you better be clear, the base is not happy,” Greene wrote on Friday.
“I campaigned for no more foreign wars. And now we are supposedly on the verge of going to war with Iran,” she said, referencing US talks with Iran as well as Israel’s efforts to get US support in targeting Iran’s nuclear facilities. “I don’t think we should be bombing foreign countries on behalf of other foreign countries especially when they have their own nuclear weapons and massive military strength.”
She also slammed a newly announced mineral agreement with Ukraine, under which the US would gain access to a portion of Ukraine’s natural resources in exchange for further aid in the country’s war with Russia. Greene referred to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky as “a dictator who canceled elections” who was “involved of the first impeachment of Trump.”
“Why on earth would we go over and occupy Ukraine and spend an untold amount of future American taxpayer dollars defending and mining their minerals as well as potentially putting American lives at risk and future war?” Greene asked. “Why don’t we just mine our own rare earth minerals that are tied up on federal lands that the government confiscated years ago?”
Beyond foreign policy, Greene took aim at domestic policy under the Trump administration, criticizing the continued FDA approval of the COVID-19 vaccine and the lack of budget recissions being voted on in Congress to cut back on government spending.
Greene, one of Trump’s most vocal allies in Congress, has consistently hesitated to publicly criticize the president. However, her post concluded by saying, “When you are losing MTG, you are losing the base. And Trump isn’t on the ballot in the future, so do the math on that.”
