You're listening to The Young Turks, the online news show. Make sure to follow and rate our show with not one, not two, not three, not four, but five stars. You're awesome. Thank you. All right, now we've got a fun and interesting guest for you guys. Joining me now on the Young Turks, Marjorie Taylor Green, Congresswoman from Georgia's 14th District. Congresswoman Green, good to have you on the Young Turks. Hi, thanks for having me tonight.

No problem. So normally we disagree a lot. And you've seen some of that. And but tonight we're going to talk about something that's that we might have in common. And I want to get a little bit of information about what's happening on the inside in Washington and see if we can maybe prevent a war. So the two sides coming together here on what I hope is a good mission. So let's start on Iran. I'm worried about a war with Iran, it appears you're worried about a war with Iran. Do you know where it stands today within the Trump administration? Because you and Tucker Carlson and others seem so concerned that it makes me more concern. Yeah, thank you for bringing that up. And I just want to thank you for having me on your show tonight. I think it's incredibly important that we find common ground as Americans. And that's never a bad thing, even when we do disagree on other issues.

So thank you so much. I have been very concerned, and I'll tell you why. A little bit of my background. I'm one of those Americans that are really sick and tired of the narrative, that we're constantly told that we're supposed to hate some country that's overseas, that maybe we've never been to. We don't know anything about that country, but we're told that they're the greatest threat to our freedoms and our democracy

and that we have to go to war with them. We saw this. We'll go back to Vietnam. We went to Vietnam and we lost thousands and thousands of American soldiers. And we lost that war. We went into Iraq. We were told we were to look for weapons of mass destruction. Well, we didn't find any. But we ended up being stuck in the Middle East for a long time and then ended up in Afghanistan looking for Osama bin Laden. And he wasn't there either. And then we were told that the oil in the Middle East would make us rich. And we were told that there. rear earth minerals in Afghanistan would also make us rich. Well, that didn't. We're $36 trillion in debt. And for me, I'll just be really direct. I'm unapologetically for our country, the United States of America. And I want to fix our problems here at home. And I believe that's what everyone's hard-earned tax dollars are really supposed to be used for. And, you know, I just, I just don't by the narrative anymore. We've been told for years and years and years. I'm longer than I can remember that Iran is on the verge of having a nuclear weapon, but we continually ignore the ones that have nuclear weapons like India, Pakistan. They're actually, you know, starting a war with each other right now. What about North Korea? They have nuclear weapons. China, Russia, we have nuclear weapons. You know, many countries have nuclear weapons, but yet the problems that I see and the people, that I know deal with problems like drug addiction and overdose.

Mental health is a great concern in America today and we've really got to do something to make everything affordable for every single person that lives in this country and here's the bottom line. My job title is the United States House of Representatives. I'm a representative for the United States for Georgia's 14th district and that means that we've got to focus here at home instead of worrying about running off and going to another war, another foreign war that we don't belong in. Yep. Okay, if you know, we're living very interesting times because a lot of people on the left say don't even have Marjorie Taylor Green on. And, you know, if you do, you got to yell at her, et cetera. And so we asked our audience, Representative Green, on our website, t.com, whether we should have you on.

And it looks like, what is that, 82% say yes. So, and here you are. And once you come on, it turns out, oh wait, you agree with us on Iran. And by the way, you agree with us on Vietnam and Iraq. So if we can actually prevent a war together, that would be amazing. So but now let's talk about, yes, but how deep is it right now? like I know for the Iraq war they did a lot of propaganda and we young Turks been around forever were the longest running show in internet history and out

so we were on the air for the Iraq war and at the time Ben Manquist and I were like no don't go don't go they didn't attack us they didn't attack us right but they built up a lot of propaganda before they went in and did the attack in this case it looks like there's some significant drama moving of the chairs around in the Pentagon and the National Security Advisor group. So do you have a better sense of how close we are to war right now? Well, there was a development today. You know, I've been constantly saying for several weeks now,

I've never seen a hootie or a hootie or however you pronounce it. I don't even know what they look like. I haven't seen them back home in Rome, Georgia, where I live. I haven't seen them in Washington, D.C. And I keep saying that how is this a threat to everyday Americans when they are not threatening us here at home on our homeland? And I think this narrative broke through and I was excited to see President Trump say today from the White House during one of his press conferences that there has been communication with the Houthis with Yemen. And they have decided that they have said they won't bomb ships anymore. and President Trump said, well, we will not bomb the Houthis.

So I think that that's significant, and I was very happy to hear it. But I also think it was important to speak out. And I thought it was important to remind everyone here in Washington that always seems to forget the campaign promises that are made on the campaign trail, that the biggest part of this campaign, one of them, was no more foreign wars, no matter which country it is. We don't want to go to war for Ukraine. We don't want to go to war against Iran. I don't think we should be fighting wars on behalf of Israel. And many Americans agree with that.

So I was pleased to see President Trump's announcement today that there had been communication and they said no more bombs. So look, first credit where credit is due when Netanyahu asked him to bomb Iran and Trump didn't. about a week or two weeks ago, I was very happy about that and I gave Trump credit for that. And now you're, you know, reporting more good news about, you know, not bombing Yemen anymore. If we'll see if that holds. But Representative Green, we're having these conversations because the Trump administration is filled with neocons. If they weren't, if it wasn't filled with neocons, we wouldn't need this conversation.

He said anti-war. You're very clear about that. you're super clear about that. I'm clear about it. But all of a sudden, we're having a conversation about how we might go to war. So how do you think the neocons got there? And how powerful do you think they are within the Trump administration? Well, I would say they're powerful on both sides of the aisle. To be honest with you, we saw Democrats in the House and Senate vote overwhelmingly to fund the war in Ukraine. And we saw Republicans do the same thing in the House and the Senate. So I would say this is not a one party problem. This is a two party problem. And this is also the military

industrial complex that is very, very powerful because they keep, no matter what administration it is, they somehow find a way to get their foreign wars. However, I really give President Trump a lot of credit for standing up against this. And the announcement he said today was, I think, extremely significant. But we still have a long ways to go. And no matter who is, president of the United States. It's the most powerful person in the world. That's who President Trump is right now. And everybody is texting him, calling him, and doing everything they can to get in the Oval Office or to somehow find time with him on the weekends. So I don't think they'll let up anytime soon. But I will say this. I think it's up to the American people to continue to voice

their concerns and express what they want out of this government. And I think that's important, no matter who's in charge. And so I hope we continue to have this conversation. And I hope we continue to just make sure what people want is said louder than the small minority here in Washington, D.C. that wants more foreign wars. You know, I'm going to move on Israel a little bit in free speech and all that. But a couple more on Iran here, because it's so monumentally important. So look, John Fetterman saying that we should bomb Iran right now. He's a Democrat, I'm deeply disappointed in him. Kamala Harris, wrapped her arms around Liz Cheney and Dick Cheney during the campaign.

I thought it was a disastrous idea. I said it many times, the neocons are not our friends. And if you're a Democrat and you're embracing neocons, it makes no sense. No ideological sense, it's not principled, it just makes. So if you want to say Liz Cheney did the right thing for about January 6th, hearings, et cetera, probably we could debate that. But I understand that part. But don't go on a neoconderation. Now, having said all that, I'm being honest about it. If Trump does attack Iran, how disappointed will you be in Trump? I don't see a need to attack Iran. I don't see a need

or understand a reason to attack Iran. And the American people don't want a war with Iran. You know, for the past several years during the Biden administration, we saw our own borders overrun every single day. And I serve on the Homeland Security Committee, and I can't tell you how many stories. There are too many stories to even comprehend from families who lost their family member to fentanyl poisoning or perhaps some other type of illegal alien crime or murder, whether it was a car accident or an actual rape and murder. And these are the stories I think we should be paying attention to. And this is what matters to me. Our border matters to me and the American people matter to me. And that'll be my continued focus and that will be my continued voice,

my public voice, as well as my private voice and when I get to speak with the president. Okay. And you do get to speak with the president and I don't. So that's important that you deliver that message. So we appreciate it. Or at least I appreciate I'll speak for myself. And so one last thing on Iran, look, Iran was in a basically a peace deal with us during the Obama years. And we got to take most of their uranium out of their country so they could have no ability to develop nuclear weapons. I thought it was a great deal. And I criticize people on all sides and I criticize Obama for a lot of things.

But I thought that was actually one of his better accomplishments, keeping us out of the war and making sure Iran didn't get nukes. How about going back into that deal? Well, I think a deal would be important. And perhaps that's what the Trump administration and President Trump is working towards. He's made that commitment for that he doesn't want Iran to ever have a nuclear weapon. And so I'm sure there is a major effort there to make sure it doesn't happen. You know, here's the situation, though, is I'll go back to this. Unless Iran is directly attacking America, attacking the American people, I'm more of like,

let's focus at home. We have tremendous problems here at home, as well as looking at other countries that we don't want to get sucked into their foreign wars. And Ukraine is another one that I think that we need to make sure that we stay out of. These are all of these countries, when we're talking about these geopolitical conflicts, these are places that, have had conflicts, some of them longer than I've been alive. And I turned 51 at the end of this month. So whether it's the Middle East or, you know, some kind of conflict over in, and, you know,

Eastern Europe or wherever it is, I really think for me, my main focus is let's fix America. Let's fix it. Let's fix our problems because our problems are quite significant. Yeah. All right. So now a related issue because I think the neocons got there because of campaign donations and Israel has taken about 300 billion dollars adjusted for inflation over their lifetime from America or we've given it to them because they're a special ally whatever that means I don't I don't know what it

means and and so I actually said that the other day and somebody on social media right wing on social media was like hey Grock is that true and Grogh was like actually it's a little higher it's around 311 billion dollars So do we have to keep giving money to Israel? Or can we just say, hey, that's enough. You're a grown-up country, you're one of the top 20 economies in the world. You have universal healthcare, we don't, you have paid family leave, we don't. Is it time to stop giving money to Israel?

I would say it's time to stop giving money to pretty much every single country around the world. I'm very much against foreign donations to countries all over the world, especially when we're in third. $36 trillion in debt. It saddens me to see homeless veterans on our streets. It saddens me talking to senior citizens that can hardly afford to pay rent or pay for their medications and food. I really think that our money needs to stay at home and fix our own problems. But I'd also like to remind you, it's both sides of the aisle. know, with the Ukraine war, even AOC voted to fund the Ukraine war. It's Republicans and Democrats

together. And the Uniparties real. It is definitely a real thing here in Washington. And they're driven to continue funding foreign aid and funding foreign countries and funding foreign wars. And I think that is, I don't know how to break that cycle. I do the best I can by being very vocal about it as I'm one member of Congress out of 435, but I will continue urging that direction to go in. So it's certainly bipartisan, yes. Both parties are very happy to give more and more money to Israel. I'm sure the fact that APEC was the number one donor in this campaign cycle, it's just a coincidence, just randomly. It wouldn't affect it at all. I hear from mainstream media reporters that politicians don't care about money. So, but let's continue a little bit more.

because Trump said this wild plan about how we were going to take over Gaza and we're going to own Gaza and we were going to do the take care of the unexploded bombs for Israel in Gaza. I assume you're against all that. Yes, I'm not supporting that. I'm not interested in taking over some part of, of, you know, the Middle East. I again, I'm I'm unapologetically American and I can't repeat that message loud enough and over and over again. You know, we've got people in western North Carolina, East Tennessee and in Northeast Georgia that their homes have still not been rebuilt from Hurricane Helene. Look it over in California, Malibu, where many people's homes were destroyed from the wildfires. And we could we could name different parts of the country. Lahaina, Hawaii, and on and on.

And before we go in and try to clean up anybody else's mess or pay for reconstruction in any country, whether it's Gaza or Ukraine, and I don't think we should be doing that either. I think we should rebuild here in America and help Americans first. All right, let's go to America and as these issues affect us here at home. So now people are getting snatched up off the streets, Mahmood Halil, Ushk, who wrote an op-ed against Israel or criticizing the current Israeli government. And now they were arrested and potentially deported. And they were here legally on visas or on green cards.

Seems to be a direct attack on freedom of speech. What's your stance on those arrests? Well, I think freedom of speech extends to Americans. I haven't really been vocal on any of those issues that's been more. of my other Republican colleagues that have been addressing those issues. I think being an American citizen is a pretty special privilege. But if you're here on a visa or a green card, then I think you should be respectful towards America and the people that we stand with. And so if they've done something wrong, then I have

no problem with them being deported. Right. If it turns out that the reporting is accurate, And Eustrich as an example, the Turkish student up in Tufts. She just wrote an op-ed, didn't do anything else, didn't say anything against America, just criticizing Israel and calling for an economic boycott. The Supreme Court has said that freedom of speech and our constitution applies to everybody in the country, including resident aliens. That's legal aliens who have a green card and people on visas. So it could corrode our freedom of speech if they're not allowed to criticize.

Israel. Does it bother you that and it's just this one country that you're not allowed to criticize here in America, no matter what your status is? Well, I definitely stand for people's free speech. That is something that I'm on record doing, even speech that I disagree with. Let me tell you, probably a lot of people watching this show have said horrible speech against me, probably in my comments and all over social media. And probably on the show, you guys. have probably said ugly speech against me. So I, but I still stand as the United States representative defending free speech. And I think I defend free speech, probably more than most members of Congress, including

many Democrats that you say a lot of nice things about. And I want to make sure that for the record, everyone knows that I single-handedly came out so hard against a boycott bill that was going to be brought to the floor on Monday because I thought it was a violation of free speech that I took it down. And it wasn't voted on this week because I believe Americans have the right to buy or boycott any product or country that they want. So I have a very strong record as well as I've defended Julian Assange, Eric Snowden, and many others. So I believe our First Amendment and our free speech is incredibly important. I'm not familiar with this young lady's op-ed. I haven't read it. And I'm

not familiar with the details of this story. So because I don't know all those details, it's hard for me to give you an exact opinion on this. Yeah, I understand. You know, let's talk about that boycott bill for a second, because there was a Republican right wing revolt against it. So this is something that actually passes in America all the time. It's in a lot of states, people don't know about it.

Like for example, Florida has a bill that if you boycott or you call for the boycott of Israel, they'll take your government contracts. away it'll lift and you could be an American citizen, it doesn't matter. So I think it's absolutely outrageous, but normally it just passes with flying colors. Who led to revolt in this case that blocked that bill in the Congress? That was me. I came out first with my opposition to the bill and I announced that I would be voting no to this this boycott bill. Because again, I believe Americans should be able to buy or boycott whatever product or

country that they want to. Look at what we did to Budweiser. We took Budweiser down and that happened during the campaign and that happened from MAGA that happened from people on the right. So I believe in an American's ability to be able to do things like that. But I also, I don't wait, I don't lean into this. I think there's this movement that a lot of people are either they're for Israel or they're against Israel. I don't lean in to any of that. I think Israel is a country that's doing just fine on their own. They have a great economy. They certainly don't have the amount of debt that we have. They have their own nuclear weapons, and they've already demonstrated they have a very capable military. We have voted a lot of votes, a lot of resolutions against anti-Semitism in Congress.

But for me and my public statements on this issue is that I would like to see in the House of Representatives, we need to be doing more votes and focusing on the agenda that we campaign for and the American people voted for in November of 2024. And I would like to see us putting our country before other countries. And that's not a for or against or any of that stuff. I just think we need to focus on what the campaign was about. Yeah. So look, you've taken a good deal of criticism on that issue of anti-Semitism, etc. So, and I get where it comes from, you know where it comes from. Having said that, I'll tell you my opinion in the last few years. For me, Israel's a foreign government. And so governments do things that are wrong all the time. I'm originally from Turkey. I'm a naturalized citizen here. And so do I like Turkey? Of course I do, right? But if Turkey's doing something wrong, I'm I'm gonna call it out, right? And if we always say, hey, you're not allowed to criticize Turkey, otherwise you'll, you know, or boycott Turkey, otherwise we'll take away your government contracts, will arrest you, will deport you.

I'd say that's outrageous, that's crazy. So, and I, and that doesn't mean that you hate me as a Turkish American. That's great, that's also crazy. Just means the government is doing something wrong. So I think, you know, I love our Jewish American brothers and sisters. And I think there's some of the best fighters for peace. And so to me, the issue of. religion and the issue of a foreign government are completely separate. Do you agree with that?

Oh, of course. And you know what? Listen, I'm a Christian. My savior is a Jew, and that's Jesus. And so, look, I have no problem with Israel. I think they're doing great. They're a great country, as well as many other countries are in criticism about anything. I have a pretty good reputation of criticizing things that I think are wrong. And, you know, you referenced where I've been accused of anti-Semitism, but that was a headline and it was not the actual story. So you may have your facts wrong there on that. I'm not anti-Semitic, not a single bone in my body as anti-Semitic. As a matter of fact, I think that one of the problems in this country is constantly accusing people of all kinds of hate,

whether it's anti-Semitism, racism, being homophobic, all of these things, I think that what we need to focus on is that we're all people and making sure that we remember that humanity is something that's extremely important. And that's why we're having this chat tonight is because we're both against all of these wars. And we need to make sure that we can take a stance in America that we don't want to be involved. We don't have to be involved. We don't have to be involved in every single context. conflict and we don't need to go out and fight wars on behalf of foreign countries. As a matter of fact, we need to fix our problems at home. Okay, well, I was gonna go to the next topic, but you brought up that it was a false headline. So you're right, we have said some bad things about it. There's no question about that. And so, and it was, and it started with that issue of the space lasers, right? So you brought it back up.

Yeah, but I never said, I never said Jewish space lasers. So that's a lie, yeah, it's a lie. And I really am tired of people perpetuating the life. So what do you mean you didn't say? Just just, just I'm trying to clear it up. I never said that. I've never said that statement in my life, but there was someone that wrote an article. And that was the headline and that's what they created.

It was in early January of 2021 when I first came into Congress. And so it was an entire hit piece against me. And it was a statement I had never said in my life and never even heard of it until I said. I saw it trending on Twitter attached to my name. So that was not your Facebook account? Of course it was my Facebook account, but I never said Jewish space lasers. And I never blamed any, I never blamed Jewish people or Israel for anything in my, in my Facebook post. And you could read my Facebook post and it's clear and obvious.

Okay. Are you worried about Elon space lasers these days because they're like, I heard about this Golden Dome project. I know there's a little bit, it's just the adjacent topic, but let me ask you while we're here. So it would cost hundreds of billions of dollars and theoretically it would be like Iron Dome that we gave to Israel where it protects the country. But it sounds like a giant boondoggle to me. I don't think that they're going to be able to pull that off. And isn't it a problem that Elon's one of the top donors to Donald Trump and now if he gets this massive contract for Golden Dome, Wouldn't that be a conflict of interest you'd be worried about?

Well, I think having national defense is critically important, and that's something that the American people would definitely want. I don't know the details of this project, but I think it's kind of silly to just make these accusations against Elon and the Trump administration when we could go through every single administration going back for decades and line up the wealthy people in the country that benefited from whoever was president at the time.

I mean, we could talk about Mark Zuckerberg and Facebook who, who, you know, banned me, Twitter that banned my personal page until Elon bought X-back. We could go through the list on and on pharmaceutical companies that benefited during COVID and many more things. So I'm not really going to get into the silly back and forth about, oh, you know, Elon is bad. Actually, I think Elon is a great patriot and what he's doing at Doge is critically important because we're $36 trillion in debt. That's the right and the left. We're in that debt together. And so I'm thankful he's taking that on. Right. So on another show, we might talk about the tax cuts and how that's going to put us in much greater debt. But it is a different

topic. So, you know, and by the way, do both sides take tremendous amount of money and do what their owners want? Absolutely. And so do I talk about it in relationship to the Republican Party? Absolutely. Do I talk about it in relation to the Democratic Party? Absolutely. Right. And again, this is APEC was the number one donor, but you're right. Big Pharma normally gives more money than APEC. Some oftentimes four times as much. Oil companies, bankers, et cetera. So I'm curious, do you take corporate PAC money or no? No, I don't take a lot of corporate PAC money. I don't have donations from Big Pharma. I think I've had, I didn't go to on the, Israel trip with APAC and I've had I think around $2,000 from them, but that's it. I don't have big tech money. Most of my donations over 90% of them are from the grassroots or small dollar donations. I have one of the largest digital files in Congress and I have donors from all 50 states. I think I'm one of the rare members of Congress that actually have donors from all 50 states

as well as over 11 million people that follow me across social media platforms. So not a lot of corporate PAC money, but some don't take any at all as a matter of principle, like Rokana on the left, Josh Hawley on the right, Matt Gates when he was in office, stopped taking corporate PAC money. Do you have a rule against it or you're just not taking a lot? I think there's been a couple of donations, but I'd have to literally go through my FEC to be able to tell you what they are, but there's probably very, very few, if there are any at all. Okay. You mentioned Snowden earlier. Should Trump pardon Snowden and bring him back home? I think that's something that the president should seriously look at. And I'm for a pardon. I've

said that. I've been on record for that, as well as Julian Assange. I think he deserves a full pardon. And I personally would like to see that. So would I. That's another point of agreement that we have. So for all that we fight and yell at each other, and justifiably so on a lot of issues, it's good to see that we at least have some common ground on some really important issues. Okay, so one more thing here along these lines, Epstein Files. How disappointing are you that they have not come out yet. And do you have a theory as to why they have it? Yeah, I'm glad you asked me about that.

You know what I've been saying for quite a few years now is I guarantee you, most of that information has already been destroyed. I can't imagine that it still exists. And I would like to, of course, we want to see all the information, but I just think it's been destroyed. That's my own personal opinion. But I think there's other foreign countries that probably have information on that as well. And it would be nice if they would release the information that they have. Oh, that's

interesting. Which foreign countries do you think might have information about that? I would I would guess some of our greatest allies, Israel probably has information there. I would not be surprised at all if they did. The UK, I bet would have information. I'm not sure who else, but I would suspect those countries. Are you disappointed that the Trump administration has not put it out yet? I'm disappointed, disappointed that many administrations haven't put it out. The Biden administration should have put it out. I think a lot of people should have put it out. But again, I'll go back to this.

I have a hard time believing that it all still is there. Yeah. Any theories on what happened? I have no idea. I couldn't even tell you. Do I think he committed suicide? Nope. I don't think so.

But again, that's just my opinion. Okay, all right, last thing before we end on a fine question, if Trump does make the mistake of bombing Iran, what do you think is going to happen with America first contingent in Congress, in media, et cetera? How do you push back and can you influence the president enough to make sure he doesn't bomb Iran and if he does to somehow extricate us from there? Because I'm worried that if he does it once and then Iran retaliates, well, we're off to the races. Well, President Trump is on record for decades being against foreign wars. He said that over and over again, and he actually campaigned on ending foreign wars and going back to the Abraham Accords. And that is a record that he proudly held during his first administration.

And I think he wants to hold that record again in this administration. So I really don't see a scenario where President Trump would bomb Iran at this time unless Iran were to, attack America or American interests throughout the world. All right, well, let's hope so and let's hope that the fact that the left, the right, the middle, everyone agrees that we should not get involved in a war in the Middle East influences the president. Okay, on a different electoral topic, last series question is a Senate run in Georgia? Are you considering it? You know, I'm really lucky to have options for several different races. And I'm lucky to have to have those options because of the incredible support that I have from many people in Georgia.

You know, polling shows that I can easily win for the Senate primary. Pulling also shows I can easily win for the governor's primary. But I got to tell you something else. I absolutely love my district. So the good thing for me is it's my choice to make and I just have to give it some good thought. Okay, that seems like a wide open door. That's my interpretation of that answer. And finally, you once did, speaking of people, you know, us fighting back and forth, which we've done a lot, you want to think I've ever fought with you. Have I ever fought back and forth with you? I don't think so. No, overall with the network, right? Because you did do a mean tweet about damage report. That's John Ida Rollo's show. Okay. I think they were trashing me earlier today. So you're still watching? Oh, yeah, I watch you guys. I watch all kinds of news. I'm not a Fox News viewer. I hardly watch Fox. I actually enjoy watching a lot of different news. I enjoy different perspectives and people's opinions.
