Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) — who has been a vocal critic against U.S. military intervention in Iran — is insisting she’s not showing “disloyalty” to President Donald Trump.

In a lengthy post on X Sunday afternoon, the Georgia congresswoman went off about the attack on three Iranian nuclear sites — but insisted she remains a staunch supporter of Trump’s.

Here is what she said about the conflict:

“Neocon warmongers beat their drums of war and act like Billy badasses going to war in countries most Americans have never seen and can’t find on a map, but never find the courage to go to war against the actual terrorists who actually do kill Americans, invade our land, and make BILLIONS doing it day after day, year after year.

“I’m 51 years old. I’m GenX.

“I’ve watched our country go to war in foreign lands for foreign causes on behalf of foreign interests for as long as I can remember. I was in 10th grade when Desert Storm started and my father before me was sent to Vietnam, another senseless foreign war.

“America is $37 TRILLION in debt and all of these foreign wars have cost Americans TRILLIONS AND TRILLIONS of dollars that never benefited any American.

“American troops have been killed and forever torn apart physically and mentally for regime change, foreign wars, and for military industrial base profits.

“I’m sick of it.”

But the congresswoman added this, about her overall support of Donald Trump:

“I can also support President Trump and his great administration on many of the great things they are doing while disagreeing on bombing Iran and getting involved in a hot war that Israel started.

“That’s not disloyalty. Critical thinking and having my own opinions is the most American thing ever.

“Because contrary to what brainwashed Democrat boomers say, Trump is not a king, MAGA is not a cult, and President Trump has surrounded himself with people who once disagreed with him and even ran against him for President.

Still, Trump is taking aim at one of his critics within the Republican ranks. In a Truth Social post, the president blasted Rep. Thomas Massie (R-KY) for sounding off against the U.S. strike.

“He’s a simple minded ‘grandstander’ who thinks it’s good politics for Iran to have the highest level Nuclear weapon, while at the same time yelling ‘DEATH TO AMERICA’ at every chance they get,” Trump wrote.
