Madge's office announced she was forming a new "America First" caucus in Congress, which would focus on preserving our "Anglo-Saxon heritage". Paul Gosar, Louie Gohmert, and Matt Gaetz quickly signed on.
What exactly is our Anglo-Saxon heritage, and why does it need to be preserved? The last time I looked, we were a pretty diverse nation. Heck - MY ancestors were Italian, so I guess I don't qualify as Anglo-Saxon? I have friends who are Black or Latino - they don't qualify either, do they? And what about native Americans, the folks who were here before the Anglo-Saxons showed up?
Fun fact: you can't "discover" a country when there are people already living there.
Greene immediately got major blowback from her own party, which decided this was a bit too KKK for them, so what did she do? She retracted the idea and blamed it on her staff for releasing it without her approval. Like we're supposed to believe that ANY Congressperson would allow their staff to create and release a policy statement without their approval.
The wheels on the bus go "Thump, Thump, Thump"... |
