Indeed! They knew they were lying and lied anyway. That's called "actual malice" and as I learned in "Avoiding defamation for writers," actual malice wipes out all the other defenses to a defamation suit. The Three Stooges are staring down the barrel of a billion dollar lawsuit standing their in their legal "birthday suit." If you want to fuck up a Republican, take what they love the most - their money.
Not just in Washington, ergo the age old adage, power corrupts. My favorite book on this subject is by Eduardo Duran, Buddha in the Redface. I would love to learn if this was ever formally taught at institutions like West Point or the Ivy League. Obama gave voice to understanding it and spoke of taking steps to insulate against it, like getting out of the WH and spending time with the people who power the engine of our country instead of just those choosing the direction. Voters would do well to learn to discern between those who are committed to serving versus those who are committed to being served.
And yet... millions of dollars are being funneled into Secretary of State/Supervisor of elections races so as to overturn elections. Big money that was never spent like this before, to replace and physically threaten law-abiding people who uphold the legitimacy of fair elections. As for these new revelations, no matter how many facts come to light that reveal the truth about this blatant attempt to overturn the presidential election and the coup attempt to overthrow our government, there is an ever-growing number of Republicans who are doubling down on believing the Big Lie. That and the anti-vaccine movement insistent on “freedom of choice,” while vaccinated people are dying because they can’t get medical care that is now rationed... its all more than I can wrap my head around.
This memo will not help their case.

And power
Power is the thing. A friend's father was once a governor and a vice president. He said that in Washington, POWER is the aphrodisiac.

In today’s US, there is no power without wealth.
…and that of all their descendants and relatives for 9 degrees.!
At least!
