    Although no one was prosecuted, the congressional committee final report said, "there is no question that these attempts were discussed, were planned, and might have been placed in execution when and if the financial backers deemed it expedient.

    Real threat of coup d’état but no consequence.

    Like a feeling of déjà vu.

      Of course there were consequences, they started with Paperclip and ended with Musk as the puppet-master behind the president of the US.

      Oh you meant negative consequences for the fascists… my bad.

        I always want to point out that the same people complaining about “woke” things… Were the ones constantly saying “wake up people” with whatever conspiracy theory grasped their homunculus brains for the week.

        They were telling everyone to wake up, and are now surprised that people did.
