I see it as fitting "market logic" that's simplistic and outdated as Trump's certainly is. But your theory works too.
definitely agree on the scheming viziers. i am looking for a larger explanation bc the oil grab doesn’t fit market logic in a realpolitik type way. so my working thesis is that oil is now gender and this is just more politics of domination

The 2000 Cubs' bullpen options were so awful that they gave a roster spot to a 28yo who'd never pitched above AA. In their second game, he gave up a walkoff grand slam to Benny Agbayani.
His name was Danny Young, and I still think of that f*cking homer every time the "new" Danny Young is mentioned.

ICE is disappearing people because The Computer tells them to, regardless of any actual evidence. Hard to get more dystopian than that.
New incredible detail here: ICE says a match in its facial recognition app Mobile Fortify is a "definitive" determination of a person's status, and that this overrides birth certificates. This is an app ICE is using in the field to scan people

NEW: After The Washington Post reported Monday on the demolition of the "East Wing facade," a new picture obtained by Law Dork that was taken on Tuesday shows that a substantial portion of the entirety of the East Wing has been demolished.

This becomes extra important with the gutting of the VRA. Again, expanding the House and making apportionment based on population density (higher density=multimember district) would soften that blow. Also House expansion just requires simple majorities and not a Constitutional amendment.
