the people storming the Capitol carrying an American flag and a flag that said “Jesus saves.”

whoever had the smart idea of tearing down the Lord’s house in downtown Columbus.

the federal elected official who voted against the Pennsylvania electoral college results and with conspiracy theorists in violation of the U.S. Constitution.

the federal elected official who isn’t locked up for treason.
