Just a reminder since things go so fast: the whole Trump team working with the Proud Boys (the guys led by an FBI informant) means the GOP has been working with a group the Canadian government just called equivalent to Al Qaeda: a *terrorist organization.*

The GOP had *elected members of their party working with a terrorist organization on January 6.*

I don't know if this has really sunk in yet. One of the two parties in America *just partnered up with a terrorist attack against U.S. soil.* https://www.ctvnews.ca/politics/mps-agree-to-call-on-feds-to-declare-proud-boys-a-terrorist-entity-1.5281428

I understand that some people have only had half a decade to wrap their heads around "Russia and China have intelligence agencies still, and do stuff against America's interest, so maybe don't partner with them as U.S. politicians."

But terrorism...is simple, right?

Not that you can't make a direct one-to-one comparison of the GOP's efforts with what agents of Russian intelligence would do to overthrow a country. (see below) But let's keep it simple.

We're clear that working with terrorists is bad, right? https://twitter.com/mhmck/status/1354554008766185472
