BLUF (Bottom Line Up Front):
Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene delivered a strategic warning from the Georgia GOP Convention on Saturday’s WarRoom with Steve Bannon, urging Republicans to adopt a “Georgia First” agenda in alignment with President Trump’s America First vision. Greene blasted state-level policies that invite foreign corporations at the expense of local workers and issued a stark warning about a hidden AI provision in the House’s budget bill that she believes undermines state sovereignty and endangers American jobs. Her remarks revealed growing discontent within the conservative base over GOP complacency and the prioritization of economic optics over core values and national security.
Situation Overview:
Greene addressed the Georgia Republican Convention with a clear directive: stop chasing green energy investments and foreign companies that erode the state’s identity and displace Georgia workers. Sporting a “Make Georgia Great Again” hat, she called out state leaders for celebrating job creation metrics that don’t reflect the needs of local communities. Specifically, she criticized the arrival of a massive South Korean battery plant in Bartow County, which is importing over 250 Korean families due to a lack of available local labor.
“This is unacceptable,” Greene said. “Georgia leaders are bragging about jobs while Georgia small businesses are being cannibalized.” She called this a betrayal of the people and values the Republican Party is supposed to represent, and advocated for a “Georgia First” policy to mirror President Trump’s America First movement.
AI and the Battle Over State Sovereignty:
Greene shifted the conversation to the national level, revealing her outrage over a clause buried in the House’s budget bill that would prohibit states from regulating artificial intelligence for the next decade. “I lost my mind this week,” she told Bannon. “How can Republicans be okay with this? It’s the death of federalism.” She said the provision ties the hands of states just as artificial general intelligence is evolving rapidly, with unknown consequences for jobs and personal privacy.
She emphasized the parallel between offshoring U.S. manufacturing over the last 40 years and the coming wave of job destruction from AI. “AI will replace jobs in every sector—just like when our factories left and rural America was left behind,” she warned. Despite support for President Trump’s priorities within the bill—like deportations, ICE agents, and the border wall—Greene stated clearly that she will vote “No” if the AI provision is not removed.
Rescissions and Budget Cuts:
Greene also reported progress from her role as Chair of the House Doge Subcommittee. She proudly discussed the upcoming rescission package that includes her proposed cuts to USAID, NPR, and PBS—programs she says funnel taxpayer money into left-wing causes and foreign interference. “I’m proud of this,” she said. “I’m not just making laws—I’m undoing harmful spending.”
Bannon applauded her efforts, referencing the late-night legislative fights of summer 2023 when Greene, Matt Gaetz, and others led the charge against bloated spending packages. Greene noted that despite overwhelming Democrat resistance and establishment Republican indifference, conservative lawmakers are slowly making fiscal accountability part of the conversation.
Conclusion:
Greene’s appearance on WarRoom signaled a growing divide between grassroots conservatives and the GOP establishment—especially over the issues of immigration, job displacement, technological governance, and economic sovereignty. Her call to action for the Georgia GOP was direct: put Georgia workers, Georgia companies, and Georgia values first—or risk losing the state to Democrat control. As the national conversation intensifies around AI, foreign influence, and working-class disenfranchisement, Greene is positioning herself as a frontline voice demanding action, accountability, and a renewed commitment to President Trump’s America First platform.
