Insurrection on January 6
An Unhappy Anniversary
The chaos of the Trump presidency culminated in a long-planned violent attempt to end the transfer of presidential power. The efforts to create chaos and weaken our democratic institutions and democracy overall continue, as evidenced this week in the GOP-controlled, but clearly out of control, House.

Donald Trump
Donald Trump
Twice-impeached 45th POTUS and wannabe authoritarian dictator who orchestrated a violent insurrection to overthrow the US Government in order to remain president despite losing re-election to Joseph R. Biden by 7,059,547 votes.
Ron DeSantis
Ron DeSantis
The 2nd term Governor of Florida and reason that the state has one of the highest death rates per capita from COVID-19. When Ron isn't convincing people to congregate unmasked during a pandemic, he's practicing his mini-me Trump impersonations both legislatively and physically by arresting Black voters his administration approved to vote and tormenting the LGBTQ community in hopes of one day being America's favorite authoritarian. Never. Going. To. Happen.

The Ultra MAGA Movement
President Biden coined the term “Ultra-MAGA” to describe the current extremist contingent within the Republican Party that has become the driving force for the GOP’s increasingly radical agenda. Of course, they embraced the description.

Tucker Carlson
Tucker Carlson
Unabashed liar, chief Fox News propagandist, and promoter of the racist, debunked Great Replacement conspiracy theory. Carlson has taken white, male grievance to its most fascistic extreme throwing molotov cocktails on the fire of a dangerous, militant far right movement because being Ivy League educated and heir to a TV dinner fortune still didn't make people like him.
