PHOENIX, ARIZONA– The MAGA “herd” is taking a vacation from doing Donald Trump’s bidding for the next two weeks, so before they go, let’s corral.
- Andy Biggs (AZ-05): This weekend, Rep. Biggs attended a second amendment rally sponsored by the Arizona chapter of the Proud Boys and CRU, “a student group that has promoted anti-Jewish materials” with close ties to White Supremacist Nick Fuentes. Rather than working to improve the lives of Arizonans, Rep. Biggs continues a long history of aligning himself with White Supremacy.
- Juan Ciscomani (AZ-06): After Ciscomani butchered the border deal and went to the border for a photo op three days later, residents in Ciscomani’s district are asking, “Who does Ciscomani represent? Tucson? Or Mar-a-Lago?“
- David Schweikert (AZ-01): This week, Rep. Schweikert introduced the Family Growth and Investment Act, legislation aimed to “support one of the most important decisions that Americans can make“- a sharp dog whistle for anyone familiar with his extreme anti-abortion stances. Friendly reminder, when Democrats introduced the Child Tax Credit, Rep. Schwiekert questioned it’s price tag and voted against the legislation that has helped nearly 121,000 children in his district.
- Paul Gosar (AZ-09): Rep.Gosar this week penned an op-ed for a far-right news publication, Revolver.News, which previously called for “law enforcement officials to open fire on protesters in Louisville and elsewhere” during the height of the Black Lives Matter movement. This isn’t the first time Rep. Gosar has amplified far-right publications.
- Eli Crane (AZ-02): Rep.Crane went on Forbes Newsroom to defend Donald Trump, calling investigations into Trump’s conduct during January 6th “complete nonsense.”
