Members of the Freedom Caucus are typically considered a part of the MAGA movement and loyalists to Donald Trump.
"Make America Great Again" is an American political slogan and political movement most recently popularized by Donald Trump during his successful 2016 presidential campaign.

To show you how dishonest the LameStream Media is, I used the word Liddle', not Liddle, in discribing Corrupt Congressman Liddle' Adam Schiff.
'This is a terrible situation and Attorney General Jeff Sessions should stop this Rigged Witch Hunt right now, before it continues to stain our country any further. Bob Mueller is totally conflicted, and his 17 Angry Democrats that are doing his dirty work are a disgrace to USA!' Trump said in a series of tweets.
Little @MacMiller sent me an expensive plaque for making his song "Donald Trump" such a big hit.
So sorry to hear the news about Jeff Bozo being taken down by a competitor whose reporting, I understand, is far more accurate than the reporting in his lobbyist newspaper, the Amazon Washington Post. Hopefully the paper will soon be placed in better & more responsible hands!.
Low ratings CNN purposely took the hyphen out and said I spelled the word little wrong. A small but never ending situation with CNN!
'MSDNC isn't here as well,' Trump quipped
'The actual conspiracy to defraud the United States was the Democrats rigging the Election, and the Fake News Media and the Unselect Committee covering it up,' he said.
