The Worst Congress in American History Extra Session
A searing portrait of the Forty sixth Congress extra session. It charges Democrats with plotting to overthrow national election laws, seize control of Electoral votes, and weaponize state rights to nullify federal authority. Strong emphasis on fraud, violence, and sectional strategy, plus clashes over the Warner silver bill and hard vs soft money factions.
