Theocrats

The “good guys” are very poorly funded. I get tons of emails from organizations that deserve financial support, but I don’t have money to send to a fraction of them, let alone all of them. Meanwhile, the super rich buy an entire government with the loose change they dig out of their sofa cushions.

The MSM are all owned by major corporations who act in the interest of their profits. Anyone in authority right now was installed by the corporatocracy.

Yes he is. And his lies in this case would be actionable under some kind of truth law. You can definitely make a case for a consistent pattern of knowing falsehoods.

My late brother in law insisted to his dying day that he saw WMDs in Iraq. Called Hans Blix all kinds of bad things. But what did he really know? He was a college dropout with a facility for languages, who joined the Navy for lack of a better idea. Trained as a linguist in Russian and Arabic.

Right. The voters elected shady and incompetent people who then appointed shady and incompetent people. The Heritage Foundation crew are completely dedicated to their totalitarian ideology. The tech bros have their own brand. And the whackos just fill in the cracks.

But if they drill and fill, there’s no evidence. When it comes to campaign rhetoric, the gray area is immense. Conduct in office perhaps less so, but still a realm of plausible deniability.

Proving intent to a criminal standard would be difficult.

Then you missed an opportunity to get paid to screw.

Because the Republican Party has completely degenerated into a power-grubbing, money grubbing corruption machine.

I haven’t experienced it IRL, but I don’t find the genre entertaining or enjoyable.

I would rather see it demolished starting on January 21, 2029, as restoration of the White House and grounds begins after the election of a Democratic president and the expansion of a Democratic congressional majority from the gains made in 2026.

Yes, and totally on brand.
