Another banger from the Herd.
“The American regime has become a tawdry theatrocracy in which political actors, hypokritai in Greek, play stock characters in a loathsome farce.”
“The US Senate (from the Latin senex, ‘old’) looks more like the waiting room of a geriatric neurologist than a council of wise elders.”
And finally: “The zombification of the Capitol — not to mention our city streets, which have become permanent encampments of the dazed and disturbed — is merely a symptom of the underlying disease.”
Many of us, me included, would say the disease is fiat, and it’s terminal.
