Americans are fucking sick of extremism.
Centrism is the only way to 1) win 2) actually make any progress.
Because if you don’t win, you can’t do anything. Except REGRESS under GOP control. As shown by 4 years of Trump/a decade of McConnell as senate majority leader.

(Notoriously unreliable witness and right wing troll/provacateur Ali Alexander later claimed Biggs helped plan the Jan 6 2021 “Stop the steal” rally which became the insurrection.)
So this seems noteworthy.
Cleta Mitchell was listed as “Secretary” of Bannon’s Citizens of the American Republic charitable organization 2018 form 990.
