White supremacist Nick Fuentes was seen visiting the office building associated with Defend Texas Liberty Pac President Jonathan Stickland. The revelation has roiled the party, leading to many Republicans calling on their peers to return donations from the PAC.
Two conservative lawmakers said Wednesday that they have donated money they received from the leader of a group who recently hosted white supremacist Nick Fuentes.Rep. Jared Patterson said that he has given $2,500 to a pro-Israel charity, to account for the in-kind contribution of the same value he received from former Rep. Jonathan Stickland, R-Bedford.
Rep. Stan Kitzman, R-Pattison, also said Wednesday that he is returning money from Defend Texas Liberty. Citing Fuentes’ visit — as well as the Tribune’s August reporting on Defend Texas Liberty’s ties to a company that pays influencers for undisclosed promotional work — Kitzman said he will donate the $5,000 he received from the PAC to local charities, including two Jewish groups.
"Every time Republicans panders and apologize to progressive Democrats on issues of race they show the world how little backbone they actually have," Toth also said. Fuentes is an avowed admirer of Adolf Hitler who has questioned if the Holocaust happened, called for "holy war" against Jews, fantasized about marrying a 16-year-old when he is older because that’s "right when the milk is good" and pushed conspiracy theories that claim there is an intentional, Jewish-driven effort to replace white people through immigration, interracial marriage and the LGBTQ+ community.
