The GOP escalated its feud with four progressive congresswomen known as the “Squad,” releasing a new ad this week accusing the group of wanting "anarchy."

“Squad goals: Anarchy,” the ad says in capital letters at the video’s conclusion.

The video was released by the Republican National Committee and was not authorized by any specific candidate. The GOP told The Hill the ad will only appear online and will not air on television.

The video comes amid an intense dispute between the White House and congressional Democrats after President Trump Donald John TrumpSteele Dossier sub-source was subject of FBI counterintelligence probe Pelosi slams Trump executive order on pre-existing conditions: It 'isn't worth the paper it's signed on' Trump 'no longer angry' at Romney because of Supreme Court stance MORE said the four congresswomen should “go back and help fix the totally broken and crime infested places from which they came.”

Why don’t they go back and help fix the totally broken and crime infested places from which they came. Then come back and show us how.... — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) July 14, 2019

Three of the four women were born in the U.S. and all are U.S. citizens. Omar came to the U.S. as a refugee from Somalia.

Trump was met with an avalanche of criticism over the post, with Democrats universally saying the tweet played on a racist trope.

The president responded by maintaining that the tweet was not racist and accusing Democrats of playing a “con game.”

Those Tweets were NOT Racist. I don’t have a Racist bone in my body! The so-called vote to be taken is a Democrat con game. Republicans should not show “weakness” and fall into their trap. This should be a vote on the filthy language, statements and lies told by the Democrat..... — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) July 16, 2019

The four congresswomen appeared for an interview on "CBS This Morning" to continue to push back on criticism from Trump and others in the GOP.

"This is a distraction, this is a disruption on our leading and legislating and governing on the issues of care and concern and consequence of the American people," Pressley said in the interview when discussing Trump and his tweets.

The House voted Tuesday evening to formally admonish Trump over the comments, passing a resolution condemning his tweet as “racist” by a 240-187 vote. Four Republicans and Rep.

However, most House Republicans have either declined to call the tweets racist or have defended the president, pointing to controversial statements the four congresswomen have made about immigration centers and Israel.
