What's happening now is unprecedented in extreme. Us textbooks everywhere tell of the Teapot Dome Scandal, where some of the presidents buddies in 1920 did a little bit of self dealing. This was it! This and Nixon were the stories of corruption! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Teapot_Dome_scandal On Bluesky we talk a Watergate a week, a Watergate a day. A massive incredibly corrupt totally fallen beastly abuse of power, week after week, day after day. This hasn't been constant. Even during Trump 1 there was nothing like this. This is the Project 2025, this is the Freedom Caucus, this is the insurrectionist Business Plot scum who have for well over a century wished to seek the downfall and hollowing out of the US. They've never had the chance to do this before, there's been nothing like this. They've tried to overthrow the US order before, but this time, they have their man. It's working. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Business_Plot | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
