Okay, I confess that back in 2016, I thought Cadet Bonespurs was a kleptocrat, a chaos monkey and batshit crazy. I reckoned that he was mostly into the election and presidency for what he could grift out of it—and he certainly showed us over four interminable years how good he was at that.

national security information from one of the best collection of agencies in
the world, that would not be off the table.

potato chip packets and expired passports” was not on my apocalyptic bingo card.
And yet, here we are.
