You better do a little research into your own party, then.

Or Michigan, where some trumpsters had a plan to kidnap and murder the the governor. Nice bunch of brethren you support. oh, and they stormed that capitol once before. There are so many insurrectionist acts by trumpsters that they all start to run together after awhile.

Did you forget MI and the shitheads arrested for planning to kidnap the governor?

I don't know if you lack curiosity of if you're just lazy, or both.

Reads like they're describing Trump's base.....

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proud_Boys

The Proud Boys is a far-right, neo-fascist, and male-only white nationalist organization that promotes and engages in political violence in the United States and Canada.[2] The group originated in the far-right Taki's Magazine in 2016 under the leadership of Vice Media co-founder and former commentator Gavin McInnes, taking its name from the song "Proud of Your Boy" from the 2011 Disney musical Aladdin.[3]

Although the Proud Boys emerged as part of the alt-right, McInnes distanced himself from this movement in early 2017, saying the Proud Boys were alt-light while the alt-right's focus was on race.[4] The re-branding effort intensified following the white supremacist Unite the Right rally.[5]

Enrique Tarrio has been the chairman of the Proud Boys since late 2018.[6][7][8] According to a former federal prosecutor and the transcripts of a 2014 federal court proceeding, Tarrio had previously served as an informant to both federal and local law enforcement.[9][10]

According to the International Centre for Counter-Terrorism, the group believes men and Western culture are under siege, their views having elements of the white genocide conspiracy theory.[11] According to The Daily Beast, though the group officially rejects white supremacy, "members have nonetheless appeared at multiple racist events".[12]

Members have also engaged in multiple racist events and events centered around fascist, anti-left, and anti-socialist violence; expelled member Jason Kessler organized the Unite the Right rally in Charlottesville.[11] The Proud Boys glorifies violence, and the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) has called the group an "alt-right fight club".[13][14] T

he organization has been described as a hate group by NPR's The Takeaway and the SPLC.[15] The Anti-Defamation League (ADL) has described the Proud Boys as "extremist conservative" and "alt lite", "overtly Islamophobic and misogynistic", "transphobic and anti-immigration", "all too willing to embrace racists, antisemites and bigots of all kinds", and notes the group's promotion and use of violence as a core tactic.[16]

The group has been banned from numerous social networks, including Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter,[17] as well as YouTube.[18] On February 3, 2021, Canada officially designated the Proud Boys as a terrorist group and the United States Justice Department announced the indictment of members for conspiracy related to the 2021 storming of the United States Capitol.[19][20][21][22]

Just stop with your sanctimonious lying bullshit.
You're not the least bit clever in your lame attempts at deceiving.

That's the problem with you pour boys, it's impossible to back up utterly false lies with anything resembling reality. So you all have to make shit up.

And then look like a moron trying to propagate it. I would normally comment something like have a little self respect, but that's not possible with your closed mentality. It's always someone else's fault.

Tearex, Again you exhibit proudly your intellectual dishonesty. You debate and defend right wing violence and now say

"I honestly still don't really know much about "the proud boys""

You, as your Trump is, are a fraud.
