Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) is pushing for the creation of a space laser to defend the U.S.-Mexico border. Yes, really.
The MAGA congresswoman, who has notoriously made bizarre comments about “Jewish space lasers” in the past, called for the technology in a proposed amendment to a bill that would provide funding for Israel during its war against Hamas in Gaza. “By the funds made available by this Act, such sums as necessary shall be used for the development of space laser technology on the southwest border,” the text of her amendment reads.
“Israel has some of the best unmanned defense systems in the world,” Greene wrote in an X post Wednesday. “I’ve previously voted to fund space lasers for Israel’s defense. America needs to take our national security seriously and deserves the same type of defense for our border that Israel has and proudly uses.”
