“And he had some STUFF TO SAY”
Maybe the future of the United States is in the hands od Brett Kavanaugh and Amy Coney Barret. Is that as frightening for you as it is for me? There are several very effective videos in the Original Article.

“Toby Morton now owns trumpkennedycenter.org, which advertises new year performance by the 'Epstein dancers'”
This is a two-fer, with an added video from 2015: Aretha Franklin performing at the the Kennedy Center. That's a DEI hire singer, performing in front of a DEI hire President. It's magnificent. I kinda doubt that this could happen at the Trump Center....

“Billionaire cash steers the agenda, military and police power set the boundaries, and religious messaging sells it as virtue, all while taxpayers...”
I think - perhaps that should be "I hope" - we're seeing fissures in the MAGA monolith, as more and more fence-sitters see disaster ahead. I suppose that what we really need is a war against Venezuela... There are links in the seed.

“Even corrupt institutions can reach a tipping point”
The Heritage Foundation used to lay down an "intellectual smokescreen" that hid the fact that there were no policy ideas on the right... other than "greed is good". Now there is no one. There are links in the seed.

So... we have a functionning country, Somaliland, that no one recognizes. Everyone legally considers that part of the world to be part of Somalia, the architype of a failed state. Then we have "Palestine", which does not actually exist - there's Jusea/Samaria to one side and Gaza to the...

“When Trump began deploying troops to US cities, Janessa Goldbeck's Vet Voice Foundation was ready - now they're preparing for what may be next”
The groveling obedience of some vets to a man who has called our dead comrades "suckers" and "losers" mystifies me. Apparently, "semper fi" means "always faithful to Trump", not to our comrades. That disgusts me. There are links in the seed.

“Time erases memories for individuals, but also collectively, within societies.”
MAGA is undoubtedly fascist, but not (yet) full-on Nazi. America doesn't (yet) have death-camps. Then again, look at Kristi Noem with her $50 000 Rolex, standing in front of a cage full of prisoners. Is CECOT inching toward Buchenwald? There are links in the seed.
