Dr. Richardson’s Letter this morning is a painful read covering the gutless cesspool of cowardice and capitulation that is the GOP. Sickening cowards. One paragraph stood out: “ In The Freedom Academy with Asha Rangappa, counterintelligence scholar Rangappa suggests the Republican senators have gone so far down the road of enabling Trump that they will simply rubber-stamp Blanche. If “you’ve confirmed Pam Bondi, Pete Hegseth, Kash Patel, and Kristi Noem, you’ve funded ICE, you’ve stood by while Trump hollowed out the [intelligence community], fired thousands of people, drained the U.S. Treasury, hijacked the country’s semiquincentennial, trashed the White House lawn for a WWE event, and drained the reflecting pool. Twice…. Is Todd Blanche really going to be THE LINE?” she asks. “Come on.”” —— My words: If Blanche is confirmed, it is difficult to hold out any hope for survival of “rule-of-law” and guarantee of Constitutional Freedoms in this country. —— https://heathercoxrichardson.substack.com/p/august-3-2026 #HeatherCoxRichardson #FuckGOP #TimeForChange
