I'm mentioning this b/c the folks who hatched the grand theocratic plot to overthrow American pluralist democracy were smart & sophisticated. That's why it's so astonishing that the people they've picked to push the project across the finish line are such blathering idiots.

The oligarchs & hostile foreign govts funding it have very different goals & expectations, compared to the deranged white supremacists & Christofascists with genocidal & apocalyptic dreams.
It’s a bag full of crazy people and crazy ideas, destined to turn on one another as they grab power and money.

The thing is, the levers of power are not mechanical - they're built out of people. If enough people come to believe that the "winds of heaven" are turning against the regime, the levers can stop working.

Bradley did not perceive their waving to be a “two-arm surrender.

After 45 minutes, a second missile screamed down from the sky on Bradley’s order. Two more missiles followed in rapid succession, sinking the remnants of the boat.

Nothing remained of the men.

It’s just insane that the Administration just regularly acts in such plain bad faith and then everyone just kind of quietly moves on when the Admin gets thwarted. Like that was bananas.

How are these fits of presidential incontinence never covered as their own news events in NYT? Hours of sick hateful bile from the curdled joyless leader of the Christian nationalists sitting in the ruins of the tinsel trimmed White House he’s demolishing — seems like a story to me.
