The white supremacist running for his sixth term in Congress

 

While millions of Americans were preparing to celebrate Independence Day, Arizona Rep. Paul Gosar was off joining forces with notorious white supremacist and Holocaust-denier Nick Fuentes, saying he won't “let the left dictate our strategy, alliances and efforts.”   We're not surprised by Gosar's “alliances” . Before voting to overturn the 2020 election results, Gosar told right-wing militia members of the Oath Keepers that America is in a civil war, “we just haven't started shooting at each other yet.” A few weeks later, the same insurrectionists broke into the Capitol.   Now, he's getting fundraising help from a man who once compared the horrors of the Holocaust to “6 million cookies” baked in an oven.   Gosar has been in Congress for over a decade -- and we're not about to let a white nationalist help him secure his sixth term in office. Gosar is the number one target for our Insurrectionist Knockout Fund, and we're bringing in our grassroots network to defeat him -- because you haven't failed us yet.   We're working to dethrone Gosar and make sure the GOP never gets control of the House. Because of people like you, we're only $998 away from reaching our Insurrectionist Knockout Fund goal and giving Gosar a run for his money. Will you rush us anything you can before midnight to defeat the white supremacist hiding in Congress?   White supremacists like Gosar think their racist views are safe in Congress because they've been hiding there for years. Thank you for helping us show racists like Gosar that they no longer have a place in Washington.   Let's keep moving forward, Progressive Majority Progressive Majority PAC is leading the fight against Trump's GOP and their dangerous and divisive agenda by supporting elected progressives, helping elect even more progressive Democrats to Congress, and protecting the gains we made in the past election. This movement is powered by progressives like you.   Paid for by Progressive Majority PAC   Progressive Majority PAC 410 1st St, SE Suite 310 Washington, DC 20003 United States
