Happy Traitors' Day for those who celebrate

Thought we'd wish a happy January 6 to some lesser known Trumpers that our research has called out. So, Happy Traitors' Day to the following:

Elias Irizarry, Daniel Morrissey, Marc Finchem, and Dylan Cronin, four J6 rioters whose names and rantings are in the Heritage Foundation's Presidential Personnel Database, a leaked database of wannabe Trump appointees.

Sarah McAbee who founded Stand in the Gap, a lobbying organization for January 6 rioters run by J6 conspiracy theorists and sympathizers. She is also in the Heritage database.

Debbie Ash, who also helps run Stand in the Gap and is also in the Heritage Foundation database, plus is a member of the Ben Franklin Fellowship, an invite only club of right-wingers at the State Department who want to MAGA-ize foreign policy.

Harry Scherer, a right-wing columnist turned Trump appointee who writes sympathetic puff pieces about J6ers and believes the rioters went to jail because "The one thing elites hate more than visiting workers is workers visiting them."

Terrell Non Roberts III, the lawyer for Ashli Babbit's family and a lot of other J6ers, as well as Augustus Invictus, a weird and violent white nationalist arrested for his role in the 2018 "Unite the Right" rally in Charlottesville.

More info in the links. And send well wishes to your own favorite J6ers in the comments!
