#1 So Washington's warning against "factionalism" holds true outside the US system as well:

#2 More of the quote. Prescient much?

[The spirit of party] agitates the community with ill-founded jealousies and false alarms, kindles the animosity of one part against another, foments occasionally riot and insurrection. It opens the door to foreign influence and corruption, which finds a facilitated access to the government itself through the channels of party passions. Thus the policy and the will of one country are subjected to the policy and will of another.

#5 Apparently Turdo is turning in his scepter and trying to put back on the silk glove, then goes on to say they will go ahead with what they had planned anyways, just won't be officially under War Powers Activated!

Oh, there will be an inquiry or something, but we all know what happens when government investigates a failure of government. Could be that Cuba trolling the crackdown was a Babylon Bee moment.

#7 This will be a prelude to tossing the cops under the bus. Which is exactly where the ones channeling the SA belong.
