Andy Biggs is running for governor of Arizona and pretending to be a calm, sensible moderate.
Texas Rep. Keith Self told Newsmax 'the Muslims want to be treated differently' and 'have no respect for U.S. law' — blaming an entire religion for a Senate candidate's booth at a Muslim convention, and calling on the Justice Department to indict the group that hosted it.
A Goodreads account that appears to be Andy Biggs's gave five stars to Mark Steyn's 'America Alone' and Ann Coulter's '¡Adios, America!' — two books built on the idea that immigrants are replacing Western societies. His campaign won't say if the account is his.
After reporting resurfaced his boast about owning a 1939 copy of Hitler's manifesto, the Trump-endorsed nominee in Texas's 23rd District made a video — holding the book up to the camera and saying he's read a good chunk of it. A Republican group once called him a 'goose-stepping extremist.'
Asked whether America is ready for a gay president, Rep. Derrick Van Orden told TMZ that 'African Americans don't want to vote for a homosexual.' Polling shows most Black voters say a candidate's sexual orientation makes no difference.
A chief of staff in a group chat with Nick Fuentes and Richard Spencer. A political director whose profile picture showed Hitler's SS. A student outreach recruit who asked whether Jews should be sent to North Korea. A swastika flag in a congressman's office. Eight Republicans on this site, one answer.
Talking Points Memo asked 28 Florida Republican officials — including the party's nominee for governor and a sitting U.S. senator — whether they would denounce Marshall Rawson, who marched at Charlottesville and whose apparent social media account posted in favor of lynching. Three answered. None denounced him.
Rogers announced 'Students for Mike Rogers.' One member had written 'Send them to North Korea?' in reply to a post about 'these people'; another had told Facebook that the answer to a leaked chat praising Hitler was 'Loyalty is the only political virtue that matters.' His campaign's response was to blame Democrats.
