Agree. This is not at all of interest to them, nor do they care. They have one vision - continued money and power and as Ann Applebaum says in her book Autocracy, Inc they have a “ruthless single-minded determination to preserve their personal wealth and power….offering no ideology”
Among this storm of unbelievable shaftings, the treatment of the commandant of the Coast Guard, who was given three hours to vacate her house, is the most shameful. To treat a four star admiral like this because the moron thought she was in her position only because of DEI deserves impeachment by itself. When are the R's going to stop letting him get away with this crap? And when are the generals and admirals going to wake up and stop kowtowing? Would that they would behave as the moron wishes and copy the approaches of Hitler's generals.
Tossing out the Geneva Convention (like Putin) is among the most troubling. Refusing to condemn torture (like Putin). Disregard and denigration of any human life (like Putin).
Agree Sharon. He mimes Putin, he wishes to be him. Will Putin pull the rug out from beneath this astonishingly "useful idiot" at America's expense? We shall see. Putin has been a political criminal/murderer much longer than this evil idiot. Putin is having a holiday.
Thank you, Professor, for addressing the elephant in the room. No one really wants to go there.
"No longer is the cruelty of utter domination a necessity for safety, it appears. Now it is a form of sensual pleasure for its own sake."
It isn't a coincidence that there are so many incidents of sexual assault by men in this administration & those that support them. Many survivors of abuse recognize the dynamics & know that rape is not about sex, it's about control. We have a minority of sick individuals trying to impose their twisted fantasies of domination & submission on the rest of us. It's uncomfortable to acknowledge, but it doesn't serve us to not see it for what it is.
Thanks as always for your lessons, references, insights, Prof Richardson. In our darkest hours, we need to pull ourselves up to do even one small thing everyday. It makes you feel better. Even spreading this word indivisible.org or being kind to someone by listening to their fear, writing ONE senator (GOP preferably to ask why they are complicit).

In the last couple of days you published a list of corporations we should boycott because of their DEI policies. I posted that list on my FACEBOOK page and a good friend and an employee shared the following.
“This list is not accurate. HomeGoods, Sierra and Marshalls should not be on this list!! The TJX company is liberal. They support DEI and do not support Project 2025. I looked at Goods Unite Us and it is not accurate. Open Secrets is a more reliable site for donations.”
Good Lord, be present with us as this nightmare continues. tRump and Elonia Musk have no moral compass.
Indeed, and what will Putin do with this clown, his astonishingly "useful idiot"
I think that Drumpf & his “best friend”, elon muck will be surprised. @ what their countrymen actually think 💡of these 2 fools 🃏☠️👍🏻
I fear they do not care what we think and are intent on turning our democracy into a kelptocracy/autocracy. We must prepare to fight for our home!

Plenty.
A sickness is settling over our country.
Thank you, Prof Richardson, for being so awesome. This is terrifying...
When I was a kid I thought everyone in the world had learned the lessons of WWII. Yet here we are...
so tired of all the doozies 😔

Trump and Musk are really sick, malevolent men.
Malevolent Monsters, yes.

I’m a civilian DOD employee, there exits a solid core of officers who espouse “we took an oath to the constitution”
I just want you to know that i appreciate your insightful essays and honest commentary on the serious events of the day.

We will have a bunch of rank incompetents running our military. What could possibly go wrong?
Thank you.
I seems our democracy is being destroyed a little more each day. How many are not keeping up with all these disturbing daily developments?
Wake up republicans, you are not exempt from the chaos that goes on each day! Better move before the craziness reaches the point of no return!
