First of all, thank you for reminding me that I have a large vocabulary. I must remember to use it more often.

Secondly, thank you thank you thank you for saying out loud what I've been thinking for the past 3 years, if not longer. I am tired of horse race journalism and speculative politics. Traditional journalism is failing us, and we need more pointed, more analytical, and more ethical reporting than what I've seen from the major broadcasters.

And last but not least, thank you for writing this article as it gave me something to concentrate on while that trailer park nightmare is on 60 Minutes. I ran away from the South to get away from people like her. The last thing I need is to see her on my Sunday night TV show. Merci.

Don't forget how Reagan's campaign team went to middle east governments during his election vs president Carter and they advised those governments to tell Iran to hold off release of our American hostages until he was president and they would get a better deal.

If that's not treason also, then I don't know what is. Might also explain the Iran Contra scandal better now too.

Just think πŸ€” how much better this country would have been without 40 years of trickle down economics and tax cuts for the rich?

When the indictment was announced, I expected the Republicans to spew out lies and baseless accusations. The mainstream media got caught up in pointless speculation on what charges will be brought. A few journalists pointed the folly of the later, and the despicable responses of the former. All to be expected.

I was, however, bitterly disappointed by Leslie Stahl's interviewing MTG. I thought she was better and smarter than that.

Thank you, Mary. It is so hard not to despair, but you help me postpone giving in to it completely.

Well stated. Thank you for your perspective and honesty. It truly does see that our system has been turned upside down. I liked the historical perspective as well. It validates that those wrongs unaddressed or swept to the side in the past have had a significant impact on the current problems we face. If we do not deal with the issues presented before us at the time of occurrence, they do come up again. History indeed repeats itself. This time it is even more treacherous.

Posted for my followers on Mastodon! Just so very true, cuts to the quick of the problem.... I know now, that the genetics of DJT have been sorely and disgustingly mutilated to create a monster. His relative is the absolutely positively opposite. (You are welcome Mary)

Thank you Mary for all of this. I've been thinking some of the very same things. I fear that it will be the weak and feckless Democrats and MSM that bring on the Christofascism due to their inaction.

Good read!

This is what happens when short term goals are valued more than long term ones, which so often happens in politics...

Mary,

It would be helpful to include reference links to your facts like Heather Cox Richardson. It is not that I don’t believe you. References help others to understand facts. Thank you for your great articles. I just signed up as paid subscriber.
