Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-GA, on Thursday defended Massachusetts Air National Guardsman Jack Teixeira who was arrested by the FBI in connection to leaking classified Pentagon documents online.
Writing on her Twitter account, Greene claimed Teixeira, 21, was arrested because he is “an enemy to the Biden regime” for being “anti-war.” She added that the 21-year-old had only “told the truth” about the situation in the war in Ukraine.
“Jake Teixeira is white, male, Christian, and antiwar. That makes him an enemy to the Biden regime. And he told the truth about troops being on the ground in Ukraine and a lot more,” Greene wrote. “Ask yourself who is the real enemy? A young low-level national guardsman? Or the administration that is waging war in Ukraine, a non-NATO nation, against nuclear Russia without war powers?”
