The Democrats did pretty well, very well in the November elections.
And then the stuff he was doing was bad, the Kennedy Center kind of thing and all that, the East Wing.
But it was more performative, you might say, than serious.
I do feel like the last 10 days we have seen real โ
accelerationist authoritarianism in foreign policy, obviously, with ICE and now with Powell.
And I'll just add to that list the Epstein file.
I mean, they were pretending at the end of last year they were going to release them.
They were redacting a lot of stuff.
It was a little very slow.
But now they've just, I don't know, I guess they've just decided they don't even have to pretend to be obeying a law that Trump himself signed a couple of months ago.
Yeah, that's the good news.
