Derrick Van Orden traveled to Washington, D.C., on Jan. 6 after he lost a congressional bid in Wisconsin. He's running again in 2022.

Former President Donald Trump on Thursday endorsed a Republican for Congress who was on the grounds of the Capitol during or near the time of the violent Jan. 6 insurrection, when a mob of Trump supporters sought to prevent the transfer of power to President Joe Biden.

Derrick Van Orden, who is running in another race in 2022 after narrowly losing a bid in Wisconsin's 3rd Congressional District last November, used approximately $4,000 in campaign funds to travel to Washington, D.C., for the "Stop the Steal" rally Trump held on Jan. 6, the Daily Beast reported.

Now he has the backing of Trump in his retread attempt at coming to Congress.

First and foremost the democrat's will find a reputable person to run in this district, that didn't try to overthrow a duly elected government.

Second maybe Orden should look at the law that he broke....and he should be fucking charged....
