MTG urges Trump to end Indian visas, back off on Ukraine as Trump raises tariffs

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-Ga., on Monday continued her hard-hitting push for President Donald Trump to course correct on Ukraine, foreign conflicts, and legal immigration as the president announced tariff hikes on India in response to its dealings with Russia.

"End Indian H1-B visas replacing American jobs instead and stop funding and sending weapons to the Obama/Biden/Neocon Ukraine Russia war," Greene declared on X, in response to Trump's Truth Social post.

Trump on Monday announced that he would raise tariffs on India due to the country purchasing Russian oil below market rate and reselling it for a profit, contending that the Indian government didn't "care about how many people in Ukraine are being killed by the Russian war machine."

Greene has, in recent weeks, voiced frustrations with the direction of the Trump administration that seemingly conflict with the "America First" mantra, notably on Ukraine and America's continued support for Israel.

The H1B visa issue, moreover, has increasingly become a prominent point of contention within the MAGA movement. The visa overwhelmingly brings in Indian and other South Asian workers and enjoys the support of the tech sector. It is, however, a target of immigration hawks who believe it allows tech firms to undercut Americans.
