Yes, much agreed Glen. I am getting to the point where something combining tedium and stress-narcolepsy puts me to sleep, wading through more newspaper articles saying in (performative?) outrage: McConnell has just said this self-contradictory and hypocritical thing! How could he! How can his supporters not recognize this! etc.
Yes. And Duterte and MBS have just had some more people killed, and Putin has poisoned somebody else. They will cease to do this when they are stopped, and not before. Their followers and collaborators too. So what’s the plan? Will be interesting if trump is firing people at DOD, in the Pentagon, etc., because he wants, together with Pompeo and Barr, to try some military move against either the US public, or some other country to create some leverage situation against the US public. My mind doesn’t work in a way that recognizes what might be appealing to them to try in that arena.
