Christ. I hate to say this, but it’s time America became the target of international sanctions as a leading member of the Axis of Evil. We are full blown Nazis now, actively supporting genocide and territorial wars across the world. Welcome to the buildup to World War fucking Three. 🤬

The most notable and alarming difference with this transition is the number of people obeying in advance. Nobody in power speaks of resistance this time—such talk makes you a target. When (if?) the pendulum turns, can we really rely on such moral cowards to undo the damage?

So a Russian agent in charge of intelligence, a pro war crimes pundit to run the military, a proud dog butcherer for Homeland Security, and now a child sex trafficker in charge of justice. Lord almighty, we have so rapidly become a failed state!
