Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) is firing back at Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) with a digitally altered picture after his criticism of her comments about a suspected leaker of military intelligence.

On Sunday afternoon, Greene shared a picture of Graham behind a bar.

The picture appeared to show him smiling and holding a commemorative can of Bud Light featuring transgender influencer Dylan Mulvaney’s face on it.

A note was added to the tweet, which reads, “This image [has] been digitally altered.”

It linked to a 2015 article from New York Magazine with the original picture.

“Senator Lindsey Graham is the son of a bar owner and likes a drink so much he thinks drinking more might just solve the problems in Washington. So it made some sense that CNN invited him onto their pre-debate ‘Politics on Tap’ event, where he got behind the bar and then proceeded to trash-talk with the network’s chief political correspondent, Dana Bash,” it explained of the picture.

Greene’s tweet came after the South Carolina senator criticized her comments about Jake Teixeira, who is suspected of leaking classified military intelligence.

After Teixara’s arrested, Greene tweeted, “Jake Teixeira is white, male, christian, and antiwar. That makes him an enemy to the Biden regime. And he told the truth about troops being on the ground in Ukraine and a lot more.”

“Ask yourself who is the real enemy? A young low level national guardsmen? Or the administration that is waging war in Ukraine, a non-NATO nation, against nuclear Russia without war powers?” she added.

During an appearance on ABC’s “This Week,” Graham ripped into conservatives who are “trying to sugarcoat this.”

“You cannot allow a single individual of the military intelligence community to leak classified information because they disagree with policy,” he said, adding, “I don’t know what led to this airman’s actions, but he’s done a lot of damage to our standing.”

The senator took aim at Greene and others for seeming to defend Teixeira and claimed it would “destroy America’s ability to defend itself.”

After Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene defends alleged Pentagon leaker, GOP Sen. Lindsey Graham tells @jonkarl, “For any member of Congress to suggest it’s OK to leak classified information because you agree with the cause is terribly irresponsible." https://t.co/n5PvaC6H4o pic.twitter.com/7OUh4e0tON

“That it’s okay to release classified information based on your political views. That the ends justify the means. It is not okay,” he explained, adding, “If you’re a member of the military intelligence community and you disagree with American policy and you think you’re going to be okay when it comes to leaking classified information, you’re going to go to jail. It’s one of the most irresponsible statements you can make.”
