In case you're worrying about the mental health of this country, I regret to inform you you're not worried enough. I think the entire Republican Party needs an intervention.

Jan 6 Suspect Says Ashli Babbitt, Brian Sicknick May Not Have Died

...Cooper then threw to a clip of an interview the correspondent had with Couy Griffin, who said he doubted whether Ashli Babbitt and U.S. Capitol police officer, Brian Sicknick had even died as a result of the riots.

"I'm not even so sure that Officer Sicknick's even dead," Cuoy Griffin said, stunning the CNN correspondent. "I'm serious," he continued, "That's, that's how – and I hate to be so crazy conspiracy-minded. I'm not even so sure Ashli Babbitt is dead."

"I mean, who's to say that was – have you seen anything of any of her family?" Griffin added.

The answer to that was yes, as the clip then segued into an interview with Babbitt's brother, Roger Witthoeft who described how close the siblings had been and how he was dealing with her loss.

You can't get any crazier than that, right?... Right?!!

Matt Gaetz Claims FBI May Have 'Animated' January 6 Storming of Capitol

Rep. Matt Gaetz has appeared on TV to spread a conspiracy theory that the FBI was involved in plotting the January 6 attack in the Capitol after infiltrating far-right groups.

During an appearance on Newsmax show Cortes & Pellegrino on Thursday, the Florida Republican said he believed that the FBI might have had a role in "organizing and participating" in the attack and had written a letter to FBI Director Christopher Wray to demand answers.

"The FBI clearly doesn't have objections to selected releases of video and images from these days, but it begs the question: why is there not more transparency? What did the FBI know? And when did they know it?" Gaetz said.

"The question of whether or not the FBI animated some of the criminal conduct is one that is far more grave."

What?! Law enforcement agency infiltrating criminal groups to gather evidence of an impending crime? What's next, using science to review evidence instead of simply dunking the accused in the river to see if the Holy Waters reject them?
