- Aw friend. You know I think the same of you! And you can out craft me :)
- something that i think is important here is to zero in on the word "democracy" because for too long this concept, in popular imagination, has been flattened into "voter preferences" and not all the important trappings of Constitutionalism
- Once a foreign government can openly give the president a half-billion-dollar plane as a personal gift, there’s no red line left between a democracy and a full-blown kleptocracy. www.doomsdayscenario.co/p/corruption...
- yeah this stuff was my first question, though my new (and maybe old) assumption is that the president can do anything that no one stops him from doing. authority is dead and it's all power.
- yes, i should blog this and yes i should have blogged today and didn't. thanks semester. thanks AI. also good vibes for my ancient cat would be appreciated.
- this is all setting aside the fact that the letter sent to Dr. Hayden sounds like the letter you would get that your leaf-clearing service is going to start charging more.
