  • Yes, that much is certain, but it’s not at all certain whether there will be a “way out” like you imagine. The reason: If this “administration” were to leave office, everyone involved would likely face prosecution, even in a system as corrupt as that of the U.S.

    They won’t risk that, especially since their first coup attempt last time went unpunished. Now the orange despot has ICE, a secret police force whose budget far exceeds that of all other federal agencies combined—such as the FBI, CIA, etc. There can only be one reason for this, and that is the establishment of a true autocracy with all the constraints that come with it. I am now convinced that the sham democracy the U.S. has been for decades has come to an end.

    I simply cannot understand how American citizens fail to see this, why they still cling to the idea that the U.S. is a country governed by the rule of law—it isn’t; it hasn’t been for a long time.

    Edit: I’m from Germany and we have a history with that kind of thing.






  • I mean, the Secretary of Education is a wrestling promoter and she’s by no means the only completely unqualified member of the administration. The entire cabinet is like that: from MMA fighters to conspiracy theorists - it’s a grotesque, full-blown clown show.

    But hey, it won’t be easy to find even halfway decent lawyers for this job anyway, given that working for this attorney general will most likely make you liable to prosecution.



  • I also believe that a nuclear arms race would have catastrophic consequences for the world, but unfortunately, Russia, Israel, and the US are making it all too clear that international treaties are, sadly, worthless.

    Right now, it would be important to find diplomatic solutions and return to a peaceful, international dialogue, but I fear that this is simply not possible with the unscrupulous despots at the helm of these powerful countries. They believe that international law does not apply to them and want to establish the law of the jungle as the sole premise of world politics - they commit the most horrific war crimes and apparently believe they have the right to terrorize the world simply because they can. As long as their heinous crimes go unpunished and these monsters remain at the helm of their countries, I fear that the world must arm itself to avoid becoming their next victim.
