Nazis & their ideology are evil. When American forces liberated a Nazi concentration camp in 1945, General Eisenhower ordered “citizens of the nearby town of Ohrdruf [] to view the camp and bury the dead, a practice that was repeated in other camp liberations.” [FN1] 1/5
The Texas GOP executive committee has voted down a ban on Republicans associating with people “who espouse or tolerate antisemitism, pro-Nazi sympathies or Holocaust denial.” [FN2] The First Amendment protects rights of association and speech against government actions. 2/5
The Indiana GOP has gerrymandered districts in the State to grab super majorities in the House and Senate. The GOP has the office of Governor. The GOP is a private organization & can party w/any hate group its leadership chooses, but voters can toss them out on their asses. 3/5
If Indiana’s GOP refuses to state it DOES NOT tolerate Nazis, Holocaust deniers or antisemites, then we need to act, as a State, to remove from office any rotten bastards who coddle hate groups. I ran in the GOP to fight for change and to fight evil. This all is real. 4/5
