Idaho Lt Gov Reverses: “Yes I Did Know” That I Was Speaking To Neo-Nazis And I’m Not Going To Back Off

“I was invited to present a video of my commitment to Idaho First policies and my vision for the State of Idaho and for America to these thousands of young conservatives. I was invited by Michelle Malkin.

“And so yes I did know who I was talking to, who had invited me to speak at that conference, so I don’t think, you know, who Michelle Malkin is.

“She’s a conservative woman. Her family emigrated from the Philippines and she happens to be married to a Jewish man so it’s a doublespeak that the illiberal left likes to talk.

“We’re not going to back off. I’m not going to back off from the opportunity to talk to other conservatives across the country about America First policies.” – Idaho Lt. Gov. Janice McGeachin.

Just yesterday we got video of McGeachin fleeing a local reporter after claiming that she had no prior knowledge about neo-Nazi Nick Fuentes or his white supremacist group.

Idaho Lt. Gov. Janice McGeachin now says, “Yes, I did know who I was talking to” when she addressed the white nationalist AFPAC conference and she stands by it: “I’m not going to back off from the opportunity to talk to other conservatives … about America First policies.” pic.twitter.com/EcbL4onfLC

If you think we’re ever gonna drop the fact that @RepMTG, Idaho Lt. Gov. Janice McGeachin, and @RepGosar spoke at a NAZI rally, you are sorely mistaken. Perhaps you haven’t heard, but we NEVER FORGET.

This is an incredible exchange between a local reporter and a far right politician:

“McGeachin is a troubling anti-democracy figure in our region seeking to build a national profile with violent and bigoted social movements” says Amy Herzfeld-Copple of @WStatesCenter https://t.co/0QWHCvmTXr pic.twitter.com/zlWZFcIz2Z
