Even that is too kind.

Everyone wants there to be a grand scheme behind all of this but the terrible truth is that extremely stupid people are in charge and they have a fanatical devotion to wrong, childlike concepts of society and economics cooked up by right wing radio hosts in order to sell tainted dietary supplements

The last day on which a majority of the Supreme Courtβs justices had been appointed by Democratic presidents was May 14, 1969.

Twenty Lessons, read by John Lithgow
Key selections from On Tyranny, for viewing and sharing
Here is my best guidance for action, rendered beautifully by the great John Lithgow. I first published these lessons more than eight years ago, in late 2016. They open the twenty chapters of "On Tyranny: Twenty Lessons from the Twentieth Century."

Remembering when in December Trump announced:
"The media is tamed down a little bit. They like us much better now, I think. If they donβt, then weβll just have to take them on again, and we donβt want to do that."
It is amazing how right he was and how cowardly so many of them have become.
