The GOP recipe is a crazy, unholy combination of one part conspiracy-addled, racist base, one part partially crazy, racist politicians, one part partially racist and crazy donors, and two parts donors who are mostly greedy as hell! Gather all the insecure, emotionally stunted and immature nutjobs in one place and shake like hell until the country falls apart and fascism is achieved.

“Conservative Republicans like to smear anything and everyone to the left of Genghis Khan as 'woke,' while simultaneously having trouble defining it. But at its core, those of us to the left of Genghis Khan know it means pretty much any efforts toward equality or an acknowledgment that inequality exists in America.” -NA

Of course, the republicans didn't sign this statement, their base is largely made up of racists and many of these lawmakers have serious racist leanings. They want the freedom to use their dog-whistles to rally the racists in their party that give them enough votes to actually win some elections. They want to shelter them from the truth of racism so they don't have to feel bad about it or embrace being a real, semi-evolved human and christian that cares about others, rather than just hating those who are different from themselves. They don't want to accept how awful and repugnant their beliefs and sentiments are and want to make sure that none of their racist constituents or their children have to take responsibility for being racist deplorables who can't mature out of their childish infatuation with hating and blaming anyone different.

"All 26 Republicans on the powerful House Oversight Committee have refused to sign a simple, two-sentence statement denouncing white supremacy.

"We, Members of the Committee on Oversight and Accountability, together denounce white nationalism and white supremacy in all its forms, including the 'Great Replacement' conspiracy theory. These hateful and dangerous ideologies have no place in the work of the United States Congress or our Committee," the statement (copy below) from Ranking Member Jamie Raskin (D-MD) reads.

It comes after several Oversight Committee Republicans "invoked dangerous and conspiratorial rhetoric echoing the racist and nativist tropes peddled by white supremacists and right-wing extremists," during a February hearing on the "border crisis," Ranking Member Raskin said in a March 5 letter to Committee Chair James Comer (photo, top.) The Washington Post first reported on Raskin’s letter.

"In particular, some Members repeatedly described the number of migrants arriving at the border as an 'invasion,' and even went so far as to falsely accuse the Biden-Harris Administration of implementing a plan 'to deliberately open our border' for purposes of 'changing our culture'—mirroring language often used by MAGA extremists who believe that pro-immigration policies are designed to replace white populations with non-white immigrants and other racial minorities," Raskin's letter says.

Congressman Raskin is a former constitutional law professor who gained national prominence as the impeachment manager during the second impeachment of Donald Trump.

"As I explained to you at the hearing," his letter to Comer continues, "such language borrows from the 'Great Replacement' theory, the central dogma of contemporary white supremacy that has been repeatedly invoked by white nationalists to justify violent acts of domestic terrorism, including the mass murders of dozens of Americans at a Tops Supermarket in Buffalo, New York, the Tree of Life Synagogue in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, and a Walmart in El Paso, Texas."

All 21 Democrats on the Oversight Committee signed the statement, and all 26 Republicans refused. A Committee spokesperson called the statement a "distraction," according to The Independent.

The 26 Republican Representatives who refused to denounce white supremacy and white nationalism are (in order of appearance on the statement): James Comer, Jim Jordan, Mike Turner, Paul Gosar, Virginia Foxx, Glenn Grothman, Gary Palmer, Clay Higgins, Pete Sessions, Andy Biggs, Nancy Mace, Jake LaTurner, pat Fallon, Byron Donalds, Kelly Armstrong, Scott Perry, William Timmons, Tim Burchett, Marjorie Taylor Greene, Lisa McClain, Lauren Boebert, Russell Fry, Anna Paulina Luna, Chuck Edwards, Nick Langworthy, and Eric Burlison."
