Know- Nothings
The Know-Nothings officially formed as the American Party (although their numbers also included members of the Whig Party as well as quite a few Democrats and prohibitionists).
The United States Republican Party is the second oldest currently existing political party in the United States.It began in 1854 and is today one of the two major political parties in the United States. Originally, it was composed mainly of northerners from both major parties of the time, the Democrats and the Whigs, with some former Know-Nothings as well. The first Republicans were united by their opposition to the expansion of slavery. Their first winning presidential candidate was Abraham Lincoln in 1860.
sweet nothings are when you are young and madly in love and whisper any random romantic things to your partner.
The Know-nothings aka the American Party, was anti-Catholic and nativist.
The Know Nothings were a bigoted group of political people who among many groups they hated were Roman Catholics. When the party fell to pieces, some of them were welcomed into the radical wing of the Republican Party. They found a home there as many radical Republicans hated Catholics. As an aside, the No Knowings tried to recruit Abraham Lincoln into their ranks. Lincoln of course refused.

The Know-Nothings were no type of Catholic, to be perfectly honest, they were anti-Catholic.
