I have written several times about the Georgia Rep that badmouths her party, colleagues and now the Leader himself….and she still has not received the ire of any of them.
She recently called the America First thing the America Last…..
MAGA Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene has gone scorched-earth on her own party again, lambasting the GOP for falling short of its “America First” motto.
The Georgia Republican is known as one of President Donald Trump’s most visible MAGA allies, but she has been left suddenly questioning whether the movement is faltering.
In an interview with Axios published Friday, Greene went as far as calling the party’s concerns “America Last.”
“It’s a revolving door at the White House of foreign leaders when Americans are, you know, screaming from their lungs,” Greene said. “If me saying those things are considered breaking with my party, then what is the Republican Party? I thought we were America First?”
Greene insisted she still supports Trump—saying he’s done “a great job in a lot of places”—but said his administration’s renewed focus on global conflicts has irked her.
Inflation and rising health-care costs, she warned, are hammering voters while Republicans ignore domestic priorities.
“Inflation skyrocketed under the Biden administration. But it’s like, okay, well, now we’re in charge, and when are we working on this?” she said.
Greene has also clashed with GOP leadership on health care, siding with Democrats in calling for action on expiring Affordable Care Act subsidies.
“Republicans have no plan,” she said. “[House Speaker] Mike Johnson has not had a single conference meeting about any sort of plan to deal with the ACA tax credits expiring.”
That comment comes after she lashed out at the House speaker for dodging questions about a Republican lawmaker accused of harassing his former girlfriend, in an Axios article published Thursday. Earlier this week, in an interview with The Washington Post, Greene raged against “weak Republican men” in Congress.
The congresswoman also slammed the administration’s $40 billion bailout of Argentina as “America Last,” arguing it puts U.S. farmers “on the verge of bankruptcy.” She also criticized erratic tariff policies, saying producers “don’t know if the tariff policy is going to change with a Truth Social post.”

What is her game?
After burnt earth rhetoric about the party and her colleagues why has Speaker not gone after her and punished her?
Just what is her game?
What does she hope to accomplish by her attacks?
Why are fellow Morons not gone after her with the hatred they go after anyone else that is so vocal?
Where is the condemnation from the MAGA supporters on social media?
What the Hell is going on?
I Read, I Write, You Know
“lego ergo scribo”
Something to detract from Trump’s follies?
I wonder if anyone even listens to her.
Oh I think so … but maybe not as much now since she’s actually supporting some Democratic ideas. Prior to this, I think she was definitely a listened-to spokesperson — mainly because she railed against the Dems.
You may be right on this….it makes no sense that she gets away with party bucking. chuq
As strange as it seems to be typing this, it appears that MTG is the only Republican willing to go against Trump and his lackeys and speak for the GOP voters who put them in power. But I still suspect she will have another meltdown soon.
Best wishes, Pete.
She will…she is not consistent…..chuq
She may be crazy but she isn’t stupid. All we see in the main stream media is the crazy going on in the government and the GOP faction in the Congress all hanging together no matter what. Out here in the real world it isn’t like that though. At the grass roots level people are becoming increasingly angry with what those yahoos have been doing. The treasurer of the Wisconsin Republican Party just resigned because of it for heaven’s sake. Their fundraising has plummeted. The Dems have raised three times as much money as the GOP here in the state in the last year. Big donors who were the party’s cash cow are now suddenly getting nervous and holding back. They may have a lock on the votes of the hard core right wing extremists, but the rest of them? They’re hurting financially and they’re laying the blame squarely at the feet of the weasels in Congress and trump.
In Wisconsin right now if the polling is accurate the Dems are possibly going to take the state senate for the first time in many years.
Voters and donors are staring to see just how useless Dems have become….chuq
