Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, the outspoken Republican from Georgia and chair of the Subcommittee on Delivering On Government Efficiency, is once again sounding alarms within the MAGA movement—this time, with pointed criticism of former President Donald Trump himself.
Back in early May, Greene made waves with a lengthy post on X in which she accused Trump of straying from the MAGA base on several critical issues.
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.

I campaigned for no more foreign wars.
And now we are supposedly on the verge of going to war with Iran.
I don’t think we should be bombing foreign…
In that post, she cited concerns about the looming Iran-Israel conflict (which later escalated), increasing U.S. aid to Ukraine, unresolved issues surrounding COVID vaccines, lack of accountability for the legal treatment of January 6 detainees, and doubts about election integrity.
“When you are losing MTG, you are losing the base,” she warned. “And Trump isn’t on the ballot in the future, so do the math on that.”
Roughly a month later, Greene again took to X—this time expressing regret over voting for Trump’s much-touted “Big Beautiful Bill,” particularly for a provision related to artificial intelligence.
Full transparency, I did not know about this section on pages 278-279 of the OBBB that strips states of the right to make laws or regulate AI for 10 years.

I am adamantly OPPOSED to this and it is a violation of state rights and I would have voted NO if I had known this was in… pic.twitter.com/bip3hztSGq
Greene later praised the move to have that AI clause removed, but the issue resurfaced this week when Trump signed an executive order titled “Promoting the Export of the American AI Technology Stack.”
That prompted another strong response from Greene.
I have many concerns about the AI Executive Order signed yesterday by President Trump.

While I understand the many promised benefits of AI, I remain committed to protecting state rights, human jobs, human lives, human rights, our environment and critical water supply.
My deep…
Greene warned that the executive order “demands rapid AI expansion with little to no guardrails and breaks.” She also objected to its threat of withholding federal funds from states that try to regulate AI, calling it “an absolute threat to federalism” and linking it to the concerns she previously raised with the AI moratorium in the spending bill.
Her post also highlighted environmental concerns about AI infrastructure, particularly water usage.
“I’ve been in construction my entire life,” she wrote. “I can tell you firsthand, when you move dirt there is always an impact to the surrounding area.”
She added, “Data centers are like black holes when it comes to water requirements. They consume massive amounts of water for cooling, literally millions of gallons per day.”
Criticizing Trump remains a political gamble for any Republican, but Greene appears undeterred. While you don’t need the letters M, T, or G to spell MAGA, losing her voice may prove costly—especially if, as she claims, she represents the sentiment of the conservative grassroots.
