The MoJo Daily newsletter, Monday through Friday. [View in browser]( [Mother Jones Daily Newsletter](     January 12, 2024 Untangling the web of characters of the January 6 attack—the convicts, GOP enablers, and conspiracy theorists—can be a monumentally challenging task. You could even say that it could be a full-time job! That's where my colleague Dan Friedman comes in. While Dan reports on far more than January 6, he's my personal go-to source for context and critical updates from the attack and Trump trials at large. So I was excited to read his latest on the [individuals who profited from the day](. Billionaires and attorneys general make a cameo. So do rot like [Roger Stone and Alex Jones](. (The latter even got a [set of veneers courtesy of one billionaire]( who funded the rally!) But why is this investigation relevant now? Dan expertly explains why Trump's pledge to be "a [dictator]( for one day," in addition to his claims of total immunity, makes it critical that we fully understand the financial incentives that motivated many of those who facilitated Trump’s Big Lie.
