Hartmann: Was Jan. 6 worse than 9/11?

He makes the case that it was because Jan. 6 is about treason within the US destroying our democracy. Repugs are spreading doubt about the vaccine in order to hurt the economy and Dem chances at reelection. They are minimizing the Jan. 6 insurrection that they incited. They are promoting the Big Lie to enact increasingly severe voter suppression. They are trying to get rid of teaching American history about slavery. They packed the Supreme Corp. Thom:

"The oligarchs who own the GOP don’t like or want anything resembling actual democracy in the United States — they know that if the will of the people is done, their taxes will go up and their companies will have to stop poisoning and ripping us off for profit."

"We’re being attacked by traitors within our own nation. And the GOP would prefer that we just, in the words of #3 House Republican Elise Stefanik, 'Move on.' [...] This is so much worse than 9/11; instead of a one-off hit to America, what the GOP is doing now is an attack on the foundation of our republic: the democratic process itself."
