We said “No More Foreign Wars, No More Regime Change!” We said it on rally stage after rally stage, speech after speech. Trump, Vance, basically the entire admin campaigned on it and promised to put America FIRST and Make America Great Again. My generation has been let down, abused, and used by our government our entire adult lives and our children’s generation is literally being abandoned. Thousands and thousands of Americans from my generation have been killed and injured in never ending pointless foreign wars and we said no more. But we are freeing the Iranian people. Please. There are 93 million people in Iran, let them liberate themselves. But Iran is on the verge of having nuclear weapons. Yeah sure. We have been spoon fed that line for decades and Trump told us all that his bombing this past summer completely wiped it all out. It’s always a lie and it’s always America Last. But it feels like the worst betrayal this time because it comes from the very man and the admin who we all believed was different and said no more.

Ladies and gentlemen: Marjorie Taylor Greene. It's a live feed on The Guardian, so I have no direct link that will last long.

She is pivoting towards what I can best describe as Nationalist TERF in a bid to get herself either a senate seat or paid for life by an eternal grift. Probably both.

She's been pivoting for a while, so this isn't a new thing for her to do.

Yea, she had a falling out with Trump over the Epstein files, and this is really the only path for her to take to stay with any semplice of relevancy.
