feel like this goes beyond politics and into tech and maybe culture. there's a kind of future blindness it feels like. a focus on both tearing down structural things/institutions and replacing them with nothing. or building things that disrupt institutions/infrastructure w/ little thought to future
This is, to me, the defining dyamic of everything the last six months. Any game theory notion of deterrence or the shoe being on the other foot ever is entirely gone. Either 1) They don't think they'll ever lose power again or 2) they're confident Democrats won't ever do the same things back to them
Budget agreements won’t matter, funding obligations won’t matter, expended funds on the basis of promised reimbursement won’t matter.
You really don’t get the impression the GOP is thinking through what this means for the second they’re not in control.
