Unfortunately, true. I think the transition has already been accomplished.

There’s a third brother, too. Sounds like an interesting guy and also a writer. Quite a family.

I only watched a few minutes of the cable show “Shameless,” but it does seem to describe the Biden administration and the surrounding media circus: an old conman with his brood of young grifters, each learning the trade and practicing their own grifts. That the star’s real life wife, Felicity Huffman, got caught in the admissions scandal ads piquancy to the comparison.

The plan all along must have been for the illegals to make the red states blue. But there were too many migrants. They didn’t want to stay in Texas or Arizona or be shipped to Kansas or the Dakotas. Many wanted to go to New York or Los Angeles, or Chicago. Those who went or were sent to blue states are making headaches for mayors and governors, so … enter Plan B.

In the new book on Biden, Franklin Foer relates that Biden opposed the asylum and refugee policy and had to be pressured to accept it (or so I’ve heard from sources familiar with the book). Nonsense. Biden was on board with the policy from the beginning. He even said in the debates that he wanted migrants to “surge to the border,” because ‘that’s who we are.’ He might have blindly followed his staffers’ recommendations, but he wasn’t forced or pressured into accepting them.

I suppose there are moments when Biden sees footage from the border, wonders how things came to this, and rages at his underlings, Are those special moments of clarity for Biden, when he suddenly understands what’s happening, or just part of his general mind fog and his having forgotten his own responsibility for what’s going on?

It’s said that Henry James wrote novels like a psychologist and his brother wrote psychology like a novelists. I don’t know if Jonathan Safran Foer writes novels like a biographer, but apparently his brother Franklin writes non-fiction with a lot of fiction in it.

Unexpectedly, the voting machines in Republican districts all malfunctioned on Election Day.

And your evidence is recorded where? We’d like to have a look at it.

https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/2022-election/vote-machine-glitch-roils-arizonas-maricopa-county-fuels-false-stateme-rcna56261

Technicians were dispatched to polling sites across Arizona’s largest county on Election Day to fix dozens of malfunctioning vote tabulation machines, a widespread issue that frustrated voters and led some GOP politicians and pundits to spread misleading or false information.

Election officials stressed that the machines were not inaccurately reading ballots, but rather, not accepting them at all.

Because Arizona has many minor races on one ballot, the ballots are printed as the voter tries to vote. The printers worked perfectly on the day before election day. On election day thousands of voters had to wait hours because the prinyters malfunctioned and most were in GOP majority districts. The “Misleading or false information” is editorial comment by NBC.

Many voters gave up.

The federal govt can always find a (twisted) “legal” means to impose their will upon the states and/or punish a state by withholding federal funds or by using other financial chicanery to compel states to yield to the federal govt.
If these methods do not work, the federal govt. can send in the military.

Like all tyrannies, there is no shortage of legal or financial “willing executioners,” to follow orders and do the actual dirty work.

Nowhere in the US Constitution does it state that member states – all which joined the union voluntarily – are compelled to stay within the union; even if the federal govt becomes a rogue govt., a dictatorship.
