Explanation:

The Radical Republicans during the late 1800s (specifically during Reconstruction) were a faction within the Republican Party in Congress. They were focused on issues like civil rights for freed slaves and stricter Reconstruction policies. Confederate soldiers were part of the Confederacy during the Civil War, and mobs of protesters don't align with the definition of Radical Republicans. So the correct group is members of Congress.

Answer:

A. members of Congress
