2. Beyond kakistocracy

We are a colony of Russia. The chain of command is;

Putin
Musk
Trump

Stop thinking of America as a democracy:

To that point, the international democracy and human rights advocacy and watchdog organization Freedom House gave the United States 83 points in its annual ranking of freedom around the world. This is similar to countries such as Croatia, Panama and Romania. Mongolia and Argentina, for example, scored higher than the United States.

What the FBI did with the Brett Kavanaugh confirmation, covering up his sexual predations, it is doing the same with the Pete Hegseth confirmation, covering up for him.

All of Trump's nominations who are threats to our national security will be confirmed and I do not see Senate Democrats fighting hard enough to stop them.

The FBI is controlled by Trump/Musk/Putin. The United States is about to confirm a man to be Secretary of Defense who wants us to get out of the Geneva Convention, who wants our military to be immune from prosecution for war crimes.

Kakistocracy is not a strong enough word, although it applies.
