I have scrutinized all you have shared with us here and found it quite comprehensive, and as always informative. None the less I remain suspicious of the Goya bean connection which has received so little media attention. Now that the outright admission to Nazism has made it's presence know the dots are beginning to be connected. It can be expected that the re-institution of gas chambers will be a part of the "2025 Plan". "All" then, such as you and I will find ourselves at the front of a line prepared for those of radical decent. Come Nov. this is a certain fate, should Agent Orange become King of the "once" United States. aka. Dr. K

Recently I saw a photo of Robert De Niro on Substack with the quote “I preferred the time in America when the President and the Village Idiot were two different people.” Thinking of satire I’m reminded of Wm Shakespeare’s political satire play Titus Andronicus as we have become a nation that seems to employ excessive violence and public bizarre behaviors into our culture. I prefer to read Shakespeare’s play versus reading about it in our daily newspaper or watching it on TV. Moral character seems to be out of vogue. The more outrageous stories I read the more disillusioned I become. Satire for the sake of entertainment is one thing but real life is another issue since what we’re learning about our politicians and it makes me what to scream 😱!

Titus Andronicus! I should read it. I find satire from the past comforting; reassuring me I'm not losing my mind and this nonsense is just the human condition.

Despite all the truths in these comments, Isnt it appalling and frightening that those lowlifes could, actually, be elected.
