MAGA Republican Flees Own Presser When Cornered on Son-in-Law’s Nazi Posts

Republican Senate candidate Mike Collins’ press conference abruptly ended after reporters questioned him about his son-in-law’s pro-Nazi online posts.

Rep. Collins, who has been a congressman in a reliably red Georgia district since 2023, on Thursday tried to shift the topic to his Democratic opponent, Sen. Jon Ossoff. But reporters pressed the issue, and Collins ultimately walked away from the podium with minimal comments about how David Alan Scheer II, according to a CNN investigation, is “a pro-White nationalist and social media influencer with a track record of sharing antisemitic material and Nazi imagery in comments across the internet.”

Towards the end of Collins’ seven-minute press conference outside the Monroe County Hospital, a reporter asked him if he wanted to comment on what Scheer posted online, like how, “There’s nothing wrong with White Nationalism.” Scheer also shared Nazi imagery.
