‘They’re Breaking U.S. Laws’: Marjorie Taylor Greene Rips AIPAC for Lobbying for ‘Genocide’ in Gaza
Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) accused AIPAC of “breaking U.S. laws” on Thursday after the lobbying group took members of Congress on a fully-paid trip to Israel.
Responding on One America News’ The Matt Gaetz Show to AIPAC’s claims that she had now “joined” the “ranks” of Democrat members of Congress like Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) and Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-MI) with the “same vile rhetoric and voting against the US-Israel alliance,” Greene said:
I’m absolutely furious, and as a matter of fact, AIPAC needs to register as a foreign lobbyist because they’re breaking U.S. laws by donating to members of Congress and by taking them on a fully-funded trip to Israel. Every single freshman member of Congress this year, they just took them over just recently and had them meet with the prime minister of Israel.
But let’s frame that correctly. They take them over to meet with the secular government of nuclear-armed Israel. Israel who is less than $400 billion in debt. Israel who has taxpayer-funded healthcare and college. Israel is not hurting and they’ve already proven that they are more than capable of not only defending themselves, but annihilating their enemies to the point of genocide, and that’s what’s happening in Gaza. And Matt, the reason why AIPAC is attacking me is because I dared to tell the truth.
She continued, “If AIPAC wants to come after me and accuse me of betraying my American values– AIPAC, you know what? You can bring it on. I am totally ready for this and this is a fight that I will fight and I will give it my all, and I can guarantee you, you’re gonna lose because America is fed up.”
Greene declared, “They’re fed up to here with funding foreign wars, funding foreign causes, funding foreign countries for foreign reasons that have nothing to do with Americans while Americans work their ass off every day and pay their taxes and come home and they’re living paycheck to paycheck and their credit cards are maxed out. I don’t care anymore. I honestly don’t care, so I’ll burn this bridge to the ground and I will let the flames light the way ’cause this is a fight that needs to happen.”
One America News host and former Republican congressman Matt Gaetz responded, “If we were still in Congress, I would just say I associate myself with the comments of the gentlelady from Georgia because everything you said there is factual and true.”
Last month, Greene made headlines after she tore into her House Republican colleague Rep. Randy Fine (R-FL) for supporting “the genocide, humanitarian crisis, and starvation happening in Gaza.”
