His comments drew sharp criticism from Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, who accused him of saying the “quiet part out loud.”
“That is quite a statement and is an acknowledgment that nuclear-armed Israel is more than capable of defending themselves, by themselves, and not only defeating their enemies, but completely wiping them out!” she posted on X/Twitter.
Greene contended that such thinking undermines the “America first” approach championed by the Trump administration.
“The gross negligent consequences of America LAST decisions by MOST politicians in Washington DC has not only chained all of us and our future generations in debt, but eroded the value of our dollar, driven out of control inflation making life completely unaffordable, and is destroying the middle class and turning my children’s generation into the WORKING POOR!!!” she wrote.
She also alleged that Israel or pro-Israel organizations finance all-expenses-paid trips for conservative influencers to visit the country.
“All hell broke loose when Tucker Carlson dared to show clean subways and well-stocked grocery stores in Moscow!” she added.
Greene concluded by describing Graham’s “pull the plug” remark as a scare tactic.
“We don’t believe we go to heaven based on how much money we blindly give and how many bombs we drop on the secular government of Israel’s enemies,” she wrote.
