8. The Nitty Gritty: Capitalism & Fascism

Republican lawmakers, Fox News opinon personalities, and President Donald Trump supporters are helping to baselessly lay the blame for the Wednesday storming of the US Capitol on "antifa." Trump supporters entered the building on Wednesday after being stirred up by the president.
