Letter to EditorBy Jake PickeringThe censured, failed fascist Republican congressman from Arizona – Paul Gosar – and that other moronic Republican crackpot congresscritter from Georgia – Marjorie Taylor Greene – are the ugly racist faces of the modern-day GOP. It’s long past time to send an unmistakable message to these would-be White supremacist insurrectionists. Prior to their felonious, anti-Constitutional criminal behavior in the Capitol on January 6th and before, pathetic Paul Gosar and promiscuous Marjorie Traitor Greene actually attempted to create a neo-Nazi GOP White supremacy caucus in the people’s House of Representatives called the “America First “Caucus. You are of course aware of the treasonous, murderous, anti-Semitic origin of traitor Trump’s favorite fascist political slogan “America First,” aren’t you? As a young child back in the 1970s, I had a pet rock whose IQ was higher than Gosar, Greene & Trump’s combined.
