Rep Marjorie Taylor Greene was on War Room with Steve Bannon to discuss the prioritization of our defense budget for US interests. Rep Greene explained to Bannon that the United States should stay out of foreign wars.
“I have fought from day one, US involvement in Ukraine, US funding of that war, sending weapons there. This is a war that should not be happening. It should be over, and the United States has no business being involved in it,” Greene said.
“I fully support our military, love President Trump. I think Pete Hegseth is doing a great job, but there are some parts of this NDAA that I cannot support, and that’s continued foreign aid and foreign funding,” Greene explained.
Rep Greene cited some examples of expenditures to foreign countries that she says need to be stopped. She explained that she will be entering amendments to reduce unnecessary foreign spending that needs to be preserved for US interests at home.
“Nuclear armed Israel does not need $500 million more dollars from the American people. Our government just bombed Iran on their behalf and destroyed Iran’s nuclear problem,” Greene continued.
“I’m also entering an amendment to strike $500 million to Jordan. Jordan doesn’t need it. They get 1.6 billion dollars every single year from the State Department,” Greene said.
“We are 37 trillion dollars in debt,” Greene said.
“118 million dollars for overseas humanitarian disaster and civic aid. Steve, this crosses the line for me. I didn’t see foreign countries flooding into America when Lahaina burned, when California burned, when east Tennessee, western North Carolina and North Georgia were destroyed and eastern Georgia were destroyed with Hurricane Helene. I don’t see foreign countries running to Texas right now,” Greene said.
“That doesn’t belong in our defense budget and so I’m entering amendments to strike all of these things,” Greene continued.
Bannon gave credit to Rep Greene for being an early advocate for staying out of Ukraine going back to 2022.
“You were a voice on this back in the early days of ’22 when we started shipping all of this money over here,” Bannon said.
“I’m so thankful for his efforts for world peace and that is one of the reasons why I fully support him, but we don’t need to be involved in the Ukraine war. We just don’t. We shouldn’t have ever been involved from the beginning,” Greene said.
