Marjorie Taylor Greene criticizes Pete Hegseth’s tribute to killed U.S. servicemembers
Greene rejected Hegseth’s praise for the fallen troops and said 16 U.S. service members have died in the conflict since fighting began in February.
- On Sunday, former Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene publicly rebuked Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, rejecting his description of two U.S. service members killed in Jordan as a "sacrifice." "What the f*** are you talking about?" Greene demanded.
- The U.S. Central Command announced that two service members were "killed in action" on Friday defending against a large Iranian ballistic missile and drone barrage in Jordan. One additional service member is listed as missing.
- Greene argued the troops "did not willingly sacrifice themselves," claiming they were killed in a war waged "on behalf of a FOREIGN COUNTRY, Israel." She labeled the conflict "senseless" and accused the administration of prioritizing foreign interests over American lives.
- President Donald Trump called the deaths "a very sad thing" while reiterating that America's objective is "never allowing Iran to have a nuclear weapon." Minority Leader Chuck Schumer wrote he was "heartbroken" over the losses.
- The Friday incident brings the total U.S. military death toll to 17, according to the Associated Press. Vice President Vance claimed some within the system are "manipulating and trying to change American public opinion" to keep the war ongoing indefinitely.
