Maddow has produced a [remarkable eight-part series](rachel-maddow-presents-ultra.s) on the history of authoritarian insurrectionists in 1930s and 40s America. It is a story of Christian nationalism, antisemitism, the America First movement, anti-democratic media figures, politicians sympathetic to authoritarian regimes, calls to armed insurrection, and violence.

Any similarities to recent events are entirely deliberate.

But unlike today's traitors, those rebel leaders ended up in prison or facing a firing squad.
