Arizona Congressman Paul Gosar surveyed the crowd as he settled in at the podium for the Feb. 26 headlining speech at the America First Political Action Conference, an event organized by a young white nationalist.
Wow, what a group, Gosar, a Republican from Prescott, told the crowd in Orlando, Fla., launching into a speech in which he railed against the deep state, talked about the importance of building an impenetrable wall along Americas southern border and how cancel culture is a greater concern than the climate crisis.
When Gosar finished, the event concluded with a 67-minute speech by 22-year-old white nationalist Nick Fuentes, the conference organizer, who called the Jan. 6 riots awesome and demanded elected leaders like Gosar enact protections for the countrys white demographic core.
Gosar was the only elected representative to speak at the conference. Other speakers included Vincent James Foxx, a propagandist for white supremacists online who creates compilations of racist fist fights, and former Rep. Steve King who was repudiated by most of his fellow congressional Republicans after an interview with The New York Times in which he wondered why terms like white supermacist have become offensive. ..............(more)

(6,218 posts)1. I'm surprised they didn't call to make America an Ayran nation.
I guess they aren't quite ready to go full nazi. But they're getting close.

https://www.howtofightantisemitism.com/timeline/rep-paul-gosar-r-az-endorses-white-nationalist-senate-candidate-with-nazi-sympathizing-campaign-manager
Rep. Paul Gosar (R-AZ), who has his own history of antisemitism, endorsed Delaware Republican Lauren Witzke for U.S. Senate. Witzke is an open QAnon believer and a white nationalist aligned with Michelle Malkin. Her then-campaign manager, Michael Sisco, openly holds fascist and antisemitic views.
Gosars endorsement did not come as a surprise. In August of 2019, he endorsed white nationalist Laura Loomers congressional run in FL-21.
Just four days prior to Gosars endorsement, Witzkes campaign manager, Michael Sisco, joked online about his score on an Aryan Exam. Several weeks before then, he threatened to doxx researchers who investigate white nationalist extremism. He has previously posted about Jewish supremacy, and was fired from his job as Field Director for a congressional race in Iowa after his ties to Holocaust denier Nick Fuentes were exposed. Sisco also has a podcast, and has interviewed antisemitic speakers, including Witzke herself.
