    You didn’t get the memo? It was called the Fascist Caucus all along, they had all their letter heads set up with FC. When they finally went public though the name wouldn’t do well, but they didn’t want to waste money on the letter head update, so they chose Freedom Caucus.

      I thought it was well established that just like the The Ministry of Peace concerned itself with war, the Ministry of Truth with lies, the Ministry of Love with torture, and the Ministry of Plenty with starvation, that groups like the Freedom Caucus and Moms For Liberty were held to mean the exact opposite of their namesake.
