So may of those who stormed the Capitol that day have been identified, charged, tried, convicted and jailed. But what about their "leader" who called them there? He's not only still walking free, but able to still hold his "rallies" and sound off with the same anti-democratic diatribes, attempting to inspire even more, not to mention grift contributions!

And you're right, his supporters are still serving in Congress, and one of them was just elected Speaker last night and took the opportunity to thank him!
