It’s an inevitably at this point.At least the last time we as a nation went though a time like this, we got Teddy Roosevelt out of it. Maybe we will get lucky again.I feel like the dangers are much higher now though, given how big a factor the government is in the economy now vs then.

It’s always hard to wake up one day and realize you’re the guy. Also, in the 1912 election he started his own party and handed the White House to the Dems. Not great, Bob.

I mean, lest we forget that the government was funded by tariffs and public land sales. (But the government just gave land to the railroads).

July 11Jul 11 Metadata embedded in the video and analyzed by WIRED and independent video forensics experts shows that rather than being a direct export from the prison’s surveillance system, the footage was modified, likely using the professional editing tool Adobe Premiere Pro. The file appears to have been assembled from at least two source clips, saved multiple times, exported, and then uploaded to the DOJ’s website, where it was presented as "raw” footage.
