Marjorie Taylor Greene Disagrees with Trump on Ukraine, Crypto, and Epstein Files: I Do not Want World War III

From bitcoin to Ukraine to the long-shadowed Epstein inquiry, Greene is blazing a trail that is neither anti-Trump nor quite in line with him.

A pause in the politics of the battlefield: Israel and Ukraine

The advisers, insiders, and political apparatus, in Greene's opinion, are dragging Trump away from the fundamental tenets of his America First agenda, not Trump himself.

Greene declared, "I am not at odds with President Trump." "I am engaged in conflict with those who are attempting to control the agenda."

At the top of her list of complaints? military assistance to other countries, particularly Israel and Ukraine.

While Trump has oscillated on his stance toward Ukraine, lately saying that the U.S. would funnel weapons through NATO, Greene has remained unshakably opposed to sending American funds and armaments overseas.

Greene's opposition to intervention is not new. Even when Trump or other Republican leaders indicated support, she has continuously voted against financing packages for Israel and Ukraine throughout her first term.

Voting Against Trump's Digital Future in the Crypto Controversy

When Greene split with Trump over cryptocurrency regulation, one of the most talked-about (and ambiguous) policy topics in Washington, the ideological divide widened.

She was one of 12 Republicans in the House who joined Democrats in voting against a crypto bill that Trump had approved this week. Her resistance? a worry that the law would be used by the Fed to introduce a Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC), which many far-right people view as a step toward government overreach.

Greene first opposed the bill in a straightforward manner, but she eventually changed her mind and let it proceed.

She called the action risky and undemocratic, and accused House Speaker Mike Johnson for opposing an amendment that would have stopped the Fed from issuing its own digital money.

For Greene, this was more about boundaries, that is, the extent to which the government should have control over digital transactions than it was about Bitcoin.

Epstein Files: Demanding the Whole Truth

Then there is the persistent presence of Jeffrey Epstein, the late billionaire and convicted sex offender whose ties to the wealthy and influential have led to years of cries for transparency and conspiracy theories.

Greene publicly expresses her disappointment that Trump has not taken a more assertive stand, in addition to her frustration with the DOJ's reluctance to make the complete Epstein probe file public.

Many voters fear the papers are being concealed to protect powerful elites, thus Greene stated, "I think they should share the information concerning the people that were surrounding Jeffrey Epstein."

The Epstein case is more than just a scandal to Greene and many members of her base; to them, it represents political privilege, unbridled power, and what they see to be bipartisan collusion.

Is Greene's Increasing Self-Sufficiency a Sign of 2026?

Even though Greene still publicly praises Trump, sometimes lavishly, her increasingly obvious deviations point to a more complex plan.

Greene is creating her own brand of MAGA politics, whether it is by opposing overseas aid or calling for government responsibility. One that is more populist, isolationist, and possibly more intimate.

According to insiders, she might be getting ready to run for Georgia governor in 2026. And if so, her meticulously planned independence might be positioning rather than rebellion.

The Conclusion: Faithful, But Not Compliant

Greene is treading carefully in a political climate when fealty to Trump frequently feels like a loyalty oath. Although she continues to speak highly of Trump, she is not afraid to voice her opinions when she believes he or more precisely, his orbit is making mistakes.

Her position is dangerous. However, it might be the most genuine thing she can do as a politician who loves controversy and defies easy classification.

Additionally, she defines authenticity as follows:

However, I am not interested in World War III.
