A recently elected candidate for Congress says he and other newly elected representatives will form a “Freedom Force” to oppose the far-left “Squad” led by Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.
“Americans just want to have opportunities to succeed,” said Rep.-elect Byron Donalds. “They don’t want people in Washington telling them how they’re going to go about doing that. They want to have the freedom to choose for themselves, and I’m here to fight for that — and that’s what the Freedom Force is here to do.”
The Florida Republican said that the 2020 election, which saw Republicans gain double-digit seats in the House of Representatives, showed that “Americans just want to be left alone.”
