Outgoing Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) on Friday slammed President Trump`s threat to intervene in Iran as it cracks down on anti-government protests.

Greene said on the social platform X that Trump`s pledge, along with Israeli billionaire Shlomo Kramer telling CNBC that the federal government should "limit the First Amendment" by cracking down on speech on social media, is "everything we voted against" in 2024.

"The focus should be on tax dollars here at home and defending our God given freedoms and rights," added Greene, who is departing Congress on Monday after a falling out with Trump.

Trump vowed on Truth Social earlier Friday that the U.S. will "rescue" protesters if the Iranian regime takes violent action against them. He also said the U.S. is "locked and loaded and ready to go" if the Islamic Republic`s government kills more demonstrators.

Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf, the speaker of the Iranian parliament, on X that the Trump`s remarks make U.S. troops in the region "legitimate targets" for the Iranian military.

Greene is also not alone in conservative circles in her criticism of Trump`s latest threats to Iran. Libertarian Rep. Thomas Massie (R-Ky.) said earlier Friday on X that the U.S. "shouldn`t be wasting military resources on another country`s internal affairs."

Steve Bannon, chief strategist to Trump during his first term, said Friday on his "War Room" podcast that the president`s threats are "straight from" former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton`s "playbook."
