Several newly-elected Republican House members, including New York’s Nicole Malliotakis, have banned together to create a group they’ve dubbed the “Freedom Force” — to oppose “The Squad” of progressive Democratic congresswomen.

“This group will give a contrast to the hard left,” Utah Rep.-elect and former NFL player Burgess Owens said Friday on Fox News’ “The Ingraham Angle.”

“We have ‘Freedom Force’ versus ‘Squad.'”

“The Squad” refers to the nickname for a group of four women first elected in 2018: Reps. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez of New York; Ilhan Omar of Minnesota; Ayanna Pressley of Massachusetts; and Rashida Tlaib of Michigan. All four were re-elected in November.

Owens pledged that the new GOP band, made up of women and people of color, will work to protect small business-owners.

“Business ownership is the foundation of our freedom,” he said on “Fox & Friend Weekend” Sunday. “It’s where our middle class comes from.”

At least eight incoming Republican lawmakers are in the group, including Reps.-elect Malliotakis; Michelle Steel of California; Stephanie Bice of Oklahoma; Victoria Spartz of Indiana; and Carlos Gimenez, Maria Elvira Salazar and Byron Donalds of Florida.

Can we just offer legislation?  Can we not have stupid names for groups and now associate them with ineffectual fringe far-left media darlings?  Now they just become a target to be mocked, instead of listened to.

show me the plans!  talk talk talk talk.  What will you do for small business?  Why is getting specific plans from people who work for us so difficult?  Freedom force...

Now let me get back to my burger and freedom fries.
