House Candidate Headlines Florida “Nationalists” Event

Florida Politics reports:

Congressional candidate Anthony Sabatini spoke Friday at a Tampa gathering of nationalists. “God bless the nationalist populist movement,” he said during his remarks. At the American Virtue conference, Sabatini trashed Republican Party leaders like Kevin McCarthy as “woke.”

He also advocated for a complete moratorium on all immigration and eliminating Juneteenth as a federal holiday. Sabatini, a candidate in Florida’s 7th Congressional District, greatly criticized U.S. involvement in defending Ukraine from Russian invasion.

Political Research Associates reports:

At the “State of the Movement” conference, American Virtue presented itself, as the groypers once presented themselves, as a more far-right alternative to the campus conservative group Turning Point USA (TPUSA).

They deployed red-meat culture war broadsides against feminism and LGBTQ rights, Big Tech, and “woke hegemonic corporations,” and diatribes against RINOs, “communists,” and other named enemies.

As I’ve said here several times, Sabatini is perhaps the most extreme of all state reps – and that is saying something.

He last appeared on JMG when he floated a bill that would make taking children to drag shows a felony and “terminate the parental rights” of those convicted.
