  • ‘Unspeakable anger’ in US over Ukraine aid says Republican: Greene

According to Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene, Americans are outraged by the present administration's decision to send billions of dollars to Ukraine while treating its citizens "worse than dirt."

Speaking at a campaign event in Atlanta on Wednesday evening, the Georgia Republican contrasted President Joe Biden's and Vice President Kamala Harris' responses to calamities hurting Americans with their desire to continue arming Kiev.

"Lahaina. East Palestine." "Western North Carolina," Greene said, designating the places of devastating wildfires, a hazardous railroad disaster, and Hurricane Helene floods.

According to Greene, the rage in the country is "unspeakable," adding that the administration has treated Americans like their lives are meaningless, "As if their tax dollars never mattered. And treated them so that they’re only worth 750 measly bucks."

“Oh, but Congress will write that check for $60 billion over and over again for Ukraine. Won’t they?” Greene added. US lawmakers have approved almost $180 billion in Ukraine aid since 2022. Greene has repeatedly voted against these spending packages.

Hurricane Helene's damage 

Hurricane Helene led to extensive flooding in western Georgia and the Carolinas, devastating many mountain communities. Entire towns have been swept away, essential utilities are still being restored in some areas, and nearly 100 people are still missing. In response, the federal government has promised $750 in aid to affected individuals, provided they complete the required paperwork.

“Let me tell you what is happening across this country. People are taking that anger, how fed up and disgusted they are with our stupid government, that treats Americans like Americans are nothing,” Greene told the crowd in Atlanta. “I hope you are as pissed off and fed up as I am. It’s about time. You should be.”

Although the US presidential and congressional elections are set for November 5, early voting has already started in Georgia and several other states. Greene encouraged voters to head to the polls and channel their anger and frustration by voting against the Democrats in office.

“This election is not white versus black, left versus right, man versus woman, or rich versus poor,” Greene told the crowd. “It is the federal government versus you.”

Additionally, she accused the legacy media outlets of being biased in favor of the current government and treating Americans "as if they were stupid".

“Don’t tell these people right here what they should think, what they should feel, and what they should do,” Greene said. “They’re sick and tired of you.”
