Last week, at least three Republicans downplayed the riot or denied it altogether. Rep.

CNN host Fareed Zakaria appeared on a special report, "A Radical Rebellion: The Transformation of the GOP," about the downfall of the Republican Party into a civil war between conspiracy theorists and principled conservatives. It isn't merely that the Republican Party is destroying itself from the inside out, and they're also struggling to keep up with a modern era.

Far-right actor Scott Baio went after Costco after a slew of conservative anti-maskers threw fits shopping over the weekend. The CDC released a statement late last week where it said it was lifting the mask mandate for those who have been vaccinated. It caused a serious problem, however.

It's for that reason that many businesses are still demanding that masks be worn in their businesses. Costco was one of them, sending Baio into a fit of rage, firing off tweets about the incident.
