Taking orders from their Washington party bosses, today Reps. Ashley Hinson and Mariannette Miller-Meeks voted against holding Arizona Republican and white nationalist sympathizer Rep. Paul Gosar accountable for tweeting a heinous animated video showing him killing a sitting congresswoman.
If it were up to Reps. Ashley Hinson and Mariannette Miller-Meeks, Gosar, who has planned fundraisers with prominent white nationalist leader Nick Fuentes and promoted “Anglo-Saxon” ideas alongside Marjorie Taylor Greene, would have been let off the hook for threatening to kill a colleague. Hinson and Miller-Meeks’ cowardly vote today underscores who really runs the House Republican Conference — unhinged extremists like Gosar and Greene who face nothing but shrugs from Republican leadership in response to their violent rhetoric.
“The House GOP’s values are in the gutter — and Ashley Hinson and Mariannette Miller-Meeks just proved today that theirs are no exception,” said DCCC Spokesperson Elena Kuhn. “Voters should know that Hinson and Miller-Meeks are extremist sympathizers who believe it’s perfectly acceptable to make death threats towards congressional colleagues.”
