View on XThe "America First" tour put on by the two firebrand Congresspeople, according to a Gaetz press release, is being put on by the pair in order to "rally the 74 million Americans that voted for President Trump in the last election and highlight the destructive failings of the radical left and their puppet in the White House, Joe Biden."
Gaetz and Green have fought with their colleagues in Congress because of their unwavering support of ex-President Donald Trump, among other things, according to The Hill.
Gaetz has had a federal investigation launched against him regarding allegations of underage sex, allegations which he absolutely denies. The investigation is ongoing, but no evidence has been found to merit laying charges.
Gaetz took the time to speak directly to his attackers during his Friday speech at the rally:
"I’m a marked man in Congress. I’m a canceled man in some corners of the Internet. I might be a wanted man by the deep state. But I am a Florida man, and it is good to be home. Today, we send a strong message to the weak establishment in both parties: America First isn’t going away. We’re going on tour."
Greene and Gaetz continue to see undaunted support from the conservative base due to their aggressive stance against her Democrat opponents.
