Who bears primary responsibility for ushering in "autocratic joyride" that is now leaving "a wake of unmitigated destruction for the American people," Elliot Kirschner asks? Certainly not the millions of Americans who knew this was going to happen and voted to prevent it.
But "far too many in the business community," "bankers," and "far too many in the press" bear primary responsibility for what's happening.

Then there's "the Justice Department under Attorney General Merrick Garland" and "the cowardice and complicity of the Supreme Court and its chief justice, John Roberts."
Not millions of Americans who saw what would happen and did all we could to prevent it: but our corporate leaders, bankers, media moguls, justice system, and the Supreme Court….
They should not be given a pass. They have royally failed us.
Speaking of the colossal failure of corporate media: as Dan Froomkin says,
"You would have no idea just how insane these so-called 'reciprocal' tariffs are from the main stories in your favorite national newspapers and mainstream-media organizations.

Republicans in Congress
Republicans in both the House and the Senate bear the responsibility.
how they continue to walk upright without spines boggles the mind
Republicans are a deep fake, in their entirety
@wdlindsy Millions and millions! Sheesh. And they still won’t read Project 2025 or even a synopsis. At least then they would know that this is only the beginning, they have yet to find out what they’re in for.
@wdlindsy
Who knew? Any of us who were paying attention, that's who. Honestly, this shit show is going better than I thought it would.
