Ch. 1: Killing By Numbers: The history of April 19th and 20th - On The Media - Air Date 8-24-10
From Hitler’s birth to the killings at Waco, Columbine and Oklahoma City, each event echoes or evokes the anniversary of the last.

Reporting from 2010 on the anti-government, armed rallies in and around Washington, DC
The FBI announced Thursday that it had thwarted a plan by far-right militia members to kidnap Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer, and charged six men in relation to the plot. The plot began as talk on social media sites.
As COVID-19 cases surge in the United States, anti-mask and anti-vaccine protests are continuing nationwide, with some turning violent. In a shocking story out of California, at least one person was stabbed and two journalists were attacked.
Radical Republican Congressman Madison Cawthorn threatens "bloodshed" if elections remain "rigged"
A rundown of recent right-wing would-be Capitol Bombers.
