Marjorie Taylor Greene trashed Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth’s comments following the killing of two U.S. service members in an Iranian strike in Jordan.

In a post on X late Saturday, Hegseth reacted to the deaths of the service members.

“Godspeed, heroes,” Hegseth wrote. “Their sacrifice only stiffens our resolve.”

But Greene took exception to Hegseth using the word “sacrifice” in connection with the killings of the service members — and called out Hegseth, as well as President Donald Trump in an X post of her own.

“Sacrifice?? What the fuck are you talking about??” Greene wrote. “They did not willingly sacrifice themselves. They were killed because of the war you, Trump, and the admin, are waging on behalf of a FOREIGN COUNTRY, Israel.”

The former congresswoman has been a fierce critic of the Iran war. Greene wrapped up her post by making her feelings about the conflict crystal clear.

“Their deaths fuel your bloodlust for a senseless war,” Greene wrote.

The service members were killed Friday defending against Iranian drone strikes. One other service member remains missing, while four others were hospitalized and released.

President Trump responded to the deaths by telling NewsNation late Saturday, “It’s a very sad thing. We hate to see it happen…It’s in service to our country…we’re never going to allow Iran to have a nuclear weapon.”
