My assessment is also that groyper staffers in DC are "a loud minority but not to the double digits." I'd even doubt 5%. Nick himself recently admitted his people aren't in DC- see video below. Rod Dreher is conflating 'hard-right' with 'groyper'.

🚨THIS IS A BIG DEAL. Chicago journalists are suing the Trump administration for using excessive force against reporters & protestors in violation of the 1A.
The press here is doing astounding work documenting how ICE is out of control. The violence they face in doing so is obscene.
