Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-Ga., slammed the State Department on Tuesday after its decision over the weekend to suspend visitor visas for people from Gaza.
“We need to be the America that allows war-torn children to come here for life-saving surgeries and the America that never releases a foreign child sex predator that our great LEO’s caught,” Green posted on X in a reference to Tom Artiom Alexandrovich, an Israeli National Cyber Directorate officer, who was apprehended Monday in Las Vegas in connection to a child sex trafficking sting.
“Would it be antisemitic to drag Netanyahu’s Cyber Executive Director back and prosecute this pos to the full extent of the law and at the same time let Palestinian kids who had their limbs and bodies blown apart receive surgeries in America?” the congresswoman continued.
The U.S. State Department announced Saturday it was suspending all visitor visas for Gaza residents while reviewing recent medical-humanitarian visa procedures.
“All visitor visas for individuals from Gaza are being stopped while we conduct a full and thorough review of the process and procedures used to issue a small number of temporary medical-humanitarian visas in recent days,” the department posted on X.
Greene has established herself as one of the more prominent conservative voices among other lawmakers that have pushed back against the Trump administration and Israel over their handling of the humanitarian crisis in Gaza.
“I know God does not discriminate in his love for children. Why would we?” she concluded.
