A religious liberty hearing becomes the flashpoint for a widening rift within the Republican Party, as “America First” influencers challenge the long-standing pro-Israel consensus once championed by leaders like William F. Buckley Jr.. Fueled by social media and faith-based arguments, this debate reflects a resurgence of isolationist and populist ideas that clash with traditional conservative alliances.
