MTG says 'states should consider seceding from the union' over border security

Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene faced backlash on social media after using the anniversary of 9/11 to criticize the Biden administration's handling of the withdrawal from Afghanistan. Users on the platform called her out for politicizing the event and questioned her motive.
Greene previously faced criticism for floating conspiracy theories about 9/11 but walked back on those remarks when faced with the possibility of losing her committee assignments. Her recent comments about states considering secession due to border policies have also drawn attention.
Cities like New York and Chicago are experiencing strains on resources and budget cuts due to the influx of immigrants. Texas has bused a small fraction of released immigrants to "sanctuary" locations, leaving the whereabouts of millions unknown.
