Never forget that without Dick Cheney’s massive campaign for the corrosion of civil liberties, his destruction of our constitution, his promotion of “unitary executive theory”, packing courts with federalist society hacks, his Halliburton-fueled destruction of our environment, the entire war on terror, Trump and MAGA would not exist and be able to do the damage they have done in the last 10 months.

This country is one of Cheney’s making. He was the driving force that led us here. Just because he and his daughter came out against Trump does not exonerate him from his crimes against humanity, and our country.

Also, don’t forget that without Obama’s fateful decision to not try Cheney and his cohorts with these crimes, instead “looking forward”, Trump would not have gotten away with all he did. We would’ve had a strong history of those involved in corruption and war crimes facing real consequences. Instead we have this. Rest in hell, Dick.

Too bad about Dick that he did not face accountability before his demised. As far as Ben Shapiro go, no one has done as good of a job exposing him as himself. He is as much a Zio-Nazi as Zio-Nazi gets.

I really wish you weren't planning to paywall this series. It is sarcastic, witty, and brief, and I think it can really engage young folk who voted for Trump because of what their information landscape is like.

the Sudan is about 70% Arab tribal and about 30% non arab Nile valley tribal. Resource $$$$ is mostly under thee control of the Arabs. why they can't get along is beyond my pay grade but the current civil war being controlled by 2 opposing generals that at one time were in union in liberating Sudan is perplexingly saddening. what these 2 generals liberated they both are now destroying. It almonst makes sene in thes toppsy curvy world we are currently living in.

will a new mayor in NYC be an inflection point....doubt it!
