The Republican Accountability Project, an anti-Trump conservative group has gone from holding top GOP lawmakers such as House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy accountable on social media to launching a new "scorecard" website that grades GOP members on their commitment to democracy.
"The Republican Accountability Project has created what it's calling a 'GOP Democracy Report Card,' which assigns grades to Republican members of Congress ranging from an 'A,' which the group describes as excellent, to an 'F,' which it describes as very poor," CNN reported on Monday morning.

The group is led by longtime Republican operatives (and Trump critics) Bill Kristol and Sarah Longwell, along with former Trump administration official Olivia Troye. It has already doled out numerous failing grades to prominent GOP lawmakers, including Florida Rep. Matt Gaetz and Georgia Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene. "Only 14 Republicans in Congress received an 'A,' the highest possible grade. In contrast, more than 100 Republicans received an 'F,' the lowest possible grade," CNN further noted.
The group's report card grading of GOP lawmakers considers how legislators voted on various issues pertaining to the 2020 election, along with the veracity of their statements about the 2020 election results and whether they voted to convince former President Trump during his second impeachment trial. "Actions have consequences and this is part of us working to hold these individuals accountable and not let them get away with it as time passes and they try to move past it and paint it under a different light," Troye told CNN. The former Trump official added the website can be used to track "who have been actively trying to do what's right for the country.

RINO would be a moniker applied to Republicants like Liz Cheney and Adam Kinzinger.
