Why are Republicans meeting with mask-off neo-Nazis?

Without a peep from the Republican Owned Media . Not even mentioned in Google…

Republican congressman Matt Rosendale from Montana met with:

Ryan Sanchez, disgraced former marine and member of the Rise Above Movement— a neo-Nazi street gang prosecuted for their role in the deadly 2017 Charlottesville Nazi rally.

Pro-Hitler blogger Greyson Arnold, a white supremacist Groyper* and January 6th insurrectionist.


These are not mere far-right activists. These men support active calls for genocide against LGBTQ+, Black, and Jewish people in the United States.

* Groypers are a loose network of alt right figures who are vocal supporters of white supremacist and “America First” podcaster Nick Fuentes.

Patrick Casey, who heads the white supremacist American Identity Movement, is also a “lead” Groyper.
Groypers regularly confront mainstream conservative organizations like Turning Point USA (TPUSA) for failing to promote a truly “America First” agenda and for not being adequately “pro white.”

Many Groypers hold racist and antisemitic views.
Fuentes is careful to position the Groypers not as white supremacists but rather as “Christian conservatives” who oppose, among other things, immigration (undocumented and legal), globalism, gay and transgender rights and feminism.

At least the neo-Nazis were always up front about where they stand. It’s the Republicans who are the ones who took so long to admit where THEY really stand.
