This Republican was asked why she appeared at an event organized by a White nationalist. She ended the interview.

Idaho Lt. Gov. Janice McGeachin spoke virtually at an event organized by White nationalist Nick Fuentes in Florida at the end of February.
Her participation in that event -- which also featured the likes of Reps. Marjorie Taylor Greene of Georgia and Paul Gosar of Arizona -- was the subject of an interview she did with a local reporter named Brian Holmes, who works for a Boise TV station.
This exchange between the two is remarkable:
Dr. Anthony Fauci said he sees a direct link between the rise in death threats made against him and his family and public figures connecting him to Covid-19 conspiracy theories, which he noted happened earlier Monday during a contentious House hearing about the government’s response to the pandemic.
The public lashing Dr. Anthony Fauci faced on Capitol Hill Monday was illustrative of his enduring unpopularity with the GOP’s conservative base. Yet even as Republicans seek to capitalize on that dislike of the infectious disease expert, former President Donald Trump’s past elevation of Fauci is a potential vulnerability as he fights off an insurgent independent campaign from Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
The Trump campaign and the Republican National Committee raised a combined $141 million in May for former President Donald Trump’s reelection effort, the campaign said Monday – a dramatic boost in fundraising over the previous month’s haul as the Trump team works to erase President Joe Biden’s longstanding financial advantage.
