Elise Stefanik is scrubbing photos of herself accepting awards from the vile Young Republicans caught in the Politico group chat. She supported every single one of them in New York State.

No person of color is surprised by this.

We've all overhead things like this we weren't supposed to. At work, school, social situations.

"The chat offers an unfiltered look at how a new generation of GOP activists talk when they think no one is listening."

This is the first generation of ‘Trump Youth.’

They’ve spent their whole lives in the Upside Down world that is Fox News & MAGA influencers making money driving other people crazy.

This is also part of Charlie Kirk’s legacy.
