Marjorie Taylor Greene turns on Trump administration

Donald Trump loyalist Marjorie Taylor Greene has turned on his administration in an extraordinary intervention.

In a rare rebuke, the Republican congresswoman has broken ranks to suggest the administration was losing its base.

“I represent the base and when I’m frustrated and upset over the direction of things, you better be clear, the base is not happy,” she wrote in a lengthy post on X.

, said she was “frustrated” with the direction of the administration, claiming it was not delivering promises she had campaigned on.

She said: “When you are losing MTG, you are losing the base. And Trump isn’t on the ballot in the future, so do the math on that.”

Ms Taylor Greene compared the signing of the Ukrainian minerals deal to the invasion of Iraq, and questioned why Mr Trump’s team had not pulled approvals for the Covid vaccine, which she claimed “does not stop people from catching Covid”.

She added: “I campaigned for no more foreign wars. And now we are supposedly on the verge of going to war with Iran.

“And on top of that, now we are told that we have signed a deal for mineral rights in Ukraine, in order to pay us back for the hundreds of billions of dollars that we gave Ukraine.

“Why don’t we just mine our own rare earth minerals that are tied up on federal lands that the government confiscated years ago?”

Her comments reflect nervousness within the GOP over the direction of travel by the Trump administration.

Ms Taylor Greene, once a pariah in her party, is one of the president’s most loyal supporters in the House of Representatives and is a leading figure in the party’s hard-Right national populist base.

She has built her political brand around the staunch defence of Mr Trump, supporting his positions unconditionally.

On Friday, a poll measuring the popularity of potential candidates for the 2026 Georgia senate seat placed her dead last.

After first being elected in 2020, Ms Taylor Greene, 50, has previously been referred to as the “QAnon candidate”.

She was removed from the House budget committee and the education and labour committee over posts on social media.

When she compared mask mandates to the Holocaust, Kevin McCarthy, then-Republican leader of the House, called her comments “appalling”.

She has since risen in the Republican ranks and is now chairman Mr Trump’s new department of government efficiency subcommittee.
