“APPALLED”: Kevin McCarthy to Talk with Greene Over Address at White Nationalist Rally


Saying the Republican Party is “no place” for white supremacists, House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy said he will have a talk with Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, who addressed the white nationalist America First Political Action Conference last weekend.

“Last week, I was just in Israel. When I come back, I see two colleagues who went and participated with a group that has a leader that many times gives antisemitic views and led a chant for Putin. For me it was appalling and wrong. And there’s no place in our party for any of this,” McCarthy said.

The America First Political Action Conference, seen as a counterweight to the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC), took place in Orlando, Florida, and was organized by Nick Fuentes, an extreme right figure who has made numerous antisemitic statements, denies the Holocaust, and is labeled as a white supremacist by the Anti-Defamation League.

  1. McConnell spoke out. McDaniel spoke out. Romney spoke out. Crenshaw spoke out. McCarthy is speaking out.

    But one leading Republican has not expressed any outrage or condemnation. In fact this leading Republican publicly praised MTG the day after her appearance at the Fuentes event. This leading Republican has no problem mouthing off in general but now he is silent.

    Hint: This leading Republican is the same guy who “never heard of David Duke” had no comment on Congressman Steve King, and thinks people marching together with neo-nazi’s are “very fine people”.

  2. Oh, You mean like, Obama & Reverend Wright? Like Joy Reed? Like Al Sharpton? Like Don Lemon? Like Rashida Tlaib? Like Ilhan Omar? Those racists?

  3. “McCarthy said he will have a talk with Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene…”
    What a joke. Is this the third or fourth time he “talked” with MTG. He and the other grownups in the Republican party are totally intimidated by Trump and fear his wrath if they come down too hard on the right wing crazies like MGT, Gosar etc. He will wag his finger at these racists and anti-Semites, but with a wink and nod and beg them to control their worst instincts, and they will ignore him and kvel with all the attention and media coverage they are getting.

  4. It’s true that there is no place in the GOP for white supremacists, and never has been. Nor has there been place for antisemites since Buchanan left (and for most of his career he was careful to hide his antisemitism). But there is no indication that either Greene or Gosar are in any way either of these things. McCarthy may not like that they spoke at this event, but he can’t control where they speak. They are entitled to speak wherever they like, and that doesn’t give anyone the right to accuse them of antisemitism.

    As to whether Fuentes really is the things he’s accused of, I don’t know, but למיחש מבעי. If it were me I would not get involved with him. But other people are entitled to make their own decisions.

    If I lived in Greene’s district I’d vote against her in the primary, because she appears to be as dumb as many of the Dems’ notorious idiots, such as AOC, Hank Johnson, Maxine Waters, Sheila Jackson Lee, etc. But I’d still vote for her in the general.
