The people, places and memes of the 1776 Restoration Movement, Freedom Corner and other chud groups.
1776 Restoration Movement (1776RM) – Christofascist cult formed by David “Santa” Riddell in May, 2022, after the collapse of the People’s Convoy. Comprised of January 6ers, QAnon devotees and other fanatics, they spent July sleeping in their cars on the National Mall to “take back America” and return Trump to office. Collapsed due to infighting and incompetence.
