Many of the defenders of the Jan. 6 insurrectionists who gathered on the steps of the old Capitol wore face coverings--not because they were following CDC recommendations, but to hide their faces as they called for the release of attackers accused of crimes in the Jan. 6 insurrection. (Laura Cassels)

About 100 people rallied on the lawn of the Historic Capitol Museum in Tallahassee. They flashed signs at passersby and chanted, “Let them go,” in reference to people arrested during the Jan. 6 attack.

Democracies have felt precarious – in the US, during the Trump presidency, and in countries like Brazil, Hungary and Poland currently. Integral to such corrosion of democracy (as George Orwell made clear in his novel 1984) is the distortion of truth and facts in favor of a particular agenda.

Lowe’s contempt for facts was apparent in his run for the mayorship last year and has characterized his renewed run in the July 27 special election for mayor.
