Tore up a new IDP caucus that promotes ‘Anglo-Saxon political traditions’ and describes it as ‘hateful’.

The rebuke of Buck, a member of the hardline Freedom Caucus, is the first sign of internal division among some of the House’s most conservative members. Reps.

Marjorie Taylor Greene says she’s going to meet with Trump in QAnon’s shutters ‘soon’, after identifying reports on Republican development, GO IN GA-14 MORE (R-Ga.)

“The hatred of this statement is only surpassed by the ignorance of American history and values,” Buck tweeted, referring to the caucus’ allegiance to ‘Anglo-Saxon political traditions’.

Buck is the youngest Republican to come out against the platform of the new group, which was considered nativist and racist.

The America First Caucus platform claims that ‘a certain intellectual boldness is needed’ to follow ‘ President TrumpDonald TrumpBiden administration seizes still near the border, despite plans to strike the wall: Illinois House report passes bill that would give Asian-American history lessons in schools.

“America is a nation with a border and a culture, strengthened by a common respect for unique Anglo-Saxon political traditions. History has shown that societal trust and political unity are threatened when foreign nationals are massively imported into a country , especially without institutional support for assimilation and an extensive welfare state to save them if they do not make a positive contribution to the country, ‘reads the caucus’ platform.

Greene and Gosar both faced comments from the past, including racist and anti-Semitic remarks Greene made before her election and Gosar’s appearance at a conference in which the organizer expressed white nationalist views.

While Buck is the first Freedom Caucus member to reprimand the new group, other more established Republicans have criticized Greene and Gosar.
