Rep Marjorie Taylor Greene of Georgia is calling for an official audit of “every single penny” in taxpayer money that the United States government has sent to Ukraine.
“I’m calling for an audit of every single penny that has been sent to Ukraine,” the Congresswoman tweeted on Wednesday.
“This must be done as soon as possible for the American people. Taxpayers deserve transparency and they deserve to see where their money is going,” she added, including a video of her speaking on the floors of Congress.

The Congresswoman from Georgia pointed out that America appears to be prioritizing the border security of Ukraine instead of it’s own, despite facing a massive fentanyl crisis and crime stemming from Mexican drug cartels.
“We’ve watched tens of billions of dollars be sent to defend another nation’s border that is not our own. Every single day our border is invaded by people from foreign lands and also by drugs. Over 300 people are dying every single day, Americans are dying every single day from fentanyl poisoning,” Greene said.
“Yet the Biden administration and this Congress has not done anything to protect our nation’s border and the American people. Just to remind everyone, the building that we’re standing in, the federal government, and everyone’s paychecks here is paid by the American taxpayers,” she added.

“And the American taxpayers and the American people deserve to have a secure border and deserve the protection of the federal government from the Mexican cartels that funnel drugs into America to kill Americans,” Greene said.
Greene called for an audit of all money sent to Ukraine in order for American taxpayers to have some transparency.
“I’m calling for an audit of every single penny that has been sent to Ukraine, including aid money, and any other monies that have been given to the Ukrainian government to defend their national security, while our national security has been ignored,” Greene said.
“This must be done. It has to be done as soon as possible for the American people. They deserve transparency and they deserve to see where their money is going,” said Greene.
Greene’s statements come as the Biden administration quietly approved another $37 billion emergency aid package for the Zelensky regime in Kiev.
