“America First” died the moment Secretary of State Marco Rubio admitted the U.S. launched strikes on Iran just because we “knew” Israel was about to act.

Think about that: our military—our sons, daughters, and trillions in taxpayer-funded munitions—isn’t being used to defend our borders or our interests. 𝐖𝐞’𝐯𝐞 𝐨𝐟𝐟𝐢𝐜𝐢𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐲 𝐛𝐞𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐞 𝐚 𝐜𝐥𝐞𝐚𝐧-𝐮𝐩 𝐜𝐫𝐞𝐰.

Saudi officials are now calling the U.S. presence in the region a “security scam.” While our bases sit in their backyard, reports indicate the U.S. has stripped air defenses from our Gulf partners to prioritize Israel’s sky.

The result? Our partners are left exposed to Iranian drones while the U.S. acts as a high-priced bodyguard for one nation at the expense of everyone else.

Rubio basically confirmed that the U.S. is now the “human shield” for someone else’s war. While Americans struggle with the cost of living and a wide-open border, we’re burning $95 billion to be the muscle for a foreign government’s agenda.

The base is waking up to this betrayal. New polling shows that 43% of Republicans already believe these Iran strikes were a mistake. 𝐓𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐢𝐬𝐧’𝐭 “𝐥𝐢𝐛𝐞𝐫𝐚𝐥 𝐰𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠”—𝐢𝐭’𝐬 𝐧𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐥𝐲 𝐡𝐚𝐥𝐟 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐆𝐎𝐏 𝐬𝐞𝐞𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐰𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐢𝐭 𝐢𝐬: 𝐚 “𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐱𝐲-𝐢𝐧-𝐂𝐡𝐢𝐞𝐟” 𝐮𝐬𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐨𝐮𝐫𝐜𝐞𝐬 𝐭𝐨 𝐟𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭 𝐚 𝐰𝐚𝐫 𝐨𝐟 𝐜𝐡𝐨𝐢𝐜𝐞.

Is this what “Making America Great Again” looks like? Being a proxy for a foreign power? It’s time to stop being the world’s ATM and start putting American lives and tax dollars back where they belong.
