Overview
- Marjorie Taylor Greene aired the claims in a new interview on Tucker Carlson’s show, as reported by Forbes and Mediaite.
- She singled out Rep. Mike Lawler, alleging he “hated” Trump, mocked his voice in private, and then embraced Trump after the 2024 primary win.
- Greene said Trump pushed out loyal supporters after returning to the White House and brought in figures who had mocked him, citing new access to White House meetings.
- She argued many Republicans are “bought and paid for” by donors, pointed to Jewish and Christian Zionist backing in Lawler’s race, and agreed when Carlson asked if such figures were “servants of Israel.”
- Outlets note these are Greene’s assertions, which feed a broader split on the right as Carlson and other conservatives have recently criticized Trump’s policies, including the Iran campaign.
