'We need 200 more Ogles'; White nationalists praise Tennessee congressman

U.S. Rep. Andy Ogles wants to reinstate laws that give preference to immigrants from Northern Europe, and people who favor ethnic cleansing are applauding.

Far-right extremists with histories of white supremacist and neo-Nazi activities are applauding GOP Tennessee Congressman Andy Ogles’ efforts to, in his words, “make America look like America again.”

Ogles has said he wants to push legislation repealing the 1965 Hart-Cellar Act, which ended what was viewed at the time as a racist immigration policy. The diehard MAGA congressman has called for reimposition of quotas that severely restricted immigration to people from Northern European countries.

He has called not only for banning anyone who practices the Islamic faith, but he has also said he would deport all Muslims, even those who are legal immigrants. And he has boasted about his A+ “remigration score,” a reference to a policy that critics have described as ethnic cleansing.

Among those celebrating Ogles’ proposals has been far-right European figure Martin Sellner, who popularized the term “remigration” as a mechanism for driving out non-White immigrants from Western countries.
