President Donald Trump and former Georgia Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene’s relationship is, in fact, as toxic as they let on.

So much so, the White House told the Secret Service that MTG may have tipped off leftist CODEPINK protesters about Trump’s whereabouts last fall, per Axios.

In September, Trump dined at Joe’s Seafood in Washington, D.C., per Greene’s recommendation, according to Axios. Trump was out to dinner with Vice President JD Vance and several prominent cabinet members to show how the city was doing after the Trump Administration deployed the National Guard to crack down on crime.

His dinner turned into a debacle when President Trump was met with CODEPINK protesters who yelled, “Free DC! Free Palestine! Trump is the Hitler of our time!” toward the president, creating a ruckus in the restaurant, Axios reported.

CODEPINK is an anti-war group made up primarily of women with alleged ties to the “Communist Chinese government.”

Two sources on Trump’s team told Axios about the Secret Service’s involvement in last fall’s protest-filled dinner outing.

Greene told Axios her involvement in tipping off Trump’s location to protesters is “an absolute lie, a dangerous lie. I would never do that.” Greene also told the outlet that only the notable restaurant and Trump’s aides knew about the reservation.

“The story you should be writing is why didn’t the Secret Service sweep the restaurant?” Greene told Axios.

It remains unclear if the Secret Service is investigating Greene. The former congresswoman declined to say whether she’s been contacted by the Secret Service, according to Axios.

After the chaotic dinner last fall, Trump called for an investigation into CODEPINK, demanding that the protesters be “put in jail.”

Axios noted the former representative repeatedly called White House staffers the day of the dinner to ensure Trump was still going. Greene maintains that even though she recommended the restaurant to the Commander in Chief, she didn’t know when he would go.

Greene, who is apparently a regular at Joe’s Seafood, didn’t show up the night of September 9 when Trump and other officials arrived, which was odd according to Trump’s aides.

MTG has a documented friendship with CODEPINK co-founder Medea Benjamin. In fact, Benjamin last year praised Greene for opposing Trump’s bombing of nuclear sites in Iran.

Greene and Trump have vehemently disagreed on foreign policy in his second term, with Greene claiming Trump abandoned his “America First” agenda. Greene was also publicly opposed to the One Big Beautiful Bill.

Though the former staunch ally of Trump left office this week, their feud continues.

Just seven years ago, Democrats around the country embarked on a campaign to essentially abolish U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) in response to President Donald J. Trump’s lawful immigration enforcement actions during his first administration. One prominent Democrat, David Garcia, who couldn’t help but fall into this lawless rhetoric, hailed from my state of Arizona. The most notable statement that landed Garcia in trouble was when he said, “Trump’s immoral actions – which Ducey has enabled – demand that we rebuild our immigration system that reflects our American values.” Because, in large part, of Garcia’s attitude about ICE, he lost the November General Election to incumbent governor Doug Ducey.

History is repeating itself in 2025, as Democrats again find themselves on the opposite side of law and order, demonizing the brave men and women who serve at ICE, Border Patrol, and other law enforcement agencies. While federal agents apprehend criminal illegal aliens in communities across America, Democratic officials are taking to the streets, airwaves, and digital spaces to impede or foment outrage against the enforcement actions. Due to these antics, the lives and livelihoods of these brave men and women in law enforcement – and even those engaging in the riots or protests – are being jeopardized. We saw this play out in Minneapolis this week, where a protester was tragically killed because she appeared to be driving her vehicle straight at an officer, who reacted in self-defense. The dichotomy playing itself out in front of the American people couldn’t be starker.

These actions are not laughing matters, nor protected by the Bill of Rights as some clueless radicals wrongfully assert. Because of the hatred toward the heroes of ICE and other federal law enforcement attempting to carry out their sworn duties, agents are experiencing more injuries and threats. A recent study from the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) showed there was a “1,150% increase in assaults and violence against U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) law enforcement officers (238 reported assaults) as compared with the same period in 2024 under the Biden administration (19 reported assaults).” According to the DHS report, these acts of violence include “hitting, spitting, kicking and biting during arrests, vehicle ramming, open gunfire, and throwing of Molotov cocktails.”

One recent fiasco involved newly minted U.S. Congresswoman Adelita Grijalva, who has attempted to grab headline after headline to artificially launch herself into national prominence since winning her special election earlier this fall. Grijalva took umbrage at ICE agents in Tucson, Arizona, conducting an operation against an alleged transnational criminal organization that was believed to be involved with labor exploitation, and tax and immigration violations. The Special Agent in Charge stated that the investigation, which predated the Trump Administration, uncovered human smuggling and trafficking.

So, what did Grijalva do for law enforcement officers helping to clear her community of alleged human traffickers? Did she thank them? Did she call on members of her community to support their lawful efforts? No, she did the opposite. An ICE statement showed that Grijalva “joined the rioting crowd and attempted to impede law enforcement officers, then took to social media to slander law enforcement by falsely claiming she was pepper sprayed.” Videos of the interaction that day back up the ICE account of the scene. Sure enough, two agents on the Homeland Security Investigations Special Response Team were injured during the events on the ground.

Unfortunately, this Grijalva episode is par for the course for how Democrats are choosing to deal with President Trump’s actions to enforce American laws and remove criminal illegal immigrants from our streets. Almost every day in the country, we have been subjected to violent clashes between federal law enforcement officers and rioters intent on stopping the government from protecting our communities. This narrative threatens to strip our proud nation of the principles that have made the United States the greatest country in world history, one being that we join together to uphold the law and support the officials who are tasked with doing just that. What should be a sense of unity that transcends party affiliation is grossly tearing apart the fabric of America and will prove to be our undoing unless it is stopped in its tracks.

As Army General and engineer Henry M. Robert once said, “Where there is no law, but every man does what is right in his own eyes, there is the least of liberty.” We are seeing the results of this quote play out in front of us. Democrats, in standing against federal law enforcement’s efforts to apprehend criminal illegal aliens, are compromising Americans’ liberties in their pursuit of eviscerating any semblance of law and order. Under the Democrats’ schemes, Americans are less safe, less prosperous, and less free. Democrats have again chosen their path; now, law-abiding Americans around the country must choose theirs.

I choose to stand with our ICE agents as they boldly execute their lawful charges against those illegally in our nation, many of whom have committed offenses other than simply crossing into the United States without authorization. However, it is sad that we must take sides. This reality is not becoming of a world superpower, nor will it lead to stability going forward. Our children and grandchildren will surely pay the price for this fracture. This nation will not survive long without borders or a commitment from its people to unashamedly enforce our laws.

So, as we prepare to commemorate America’s 250th birthday in just a handful of months, let us choose to support the efforts of government officials to restore law and order to our streets and remove criminal illegal aliens from our communities. These men and women are heroes, and they deserve our praise and support for their actions. The United States of America stands with ICE.
