It’s Beyoncé's world, but she will allow us to be entertained by her. It’s Trump’s America, and he will allow us to have a democracy for as long as it pleases him. He will even allow God, as long as he gets a piece of the action.
The 119th Congress will be a lot like the 118th, except that the president is a sociopathic megalomaniacal dictator wannabe, and his buddy Donald Trump’s a jerk too. House Speaker Mike Johnson might have his work cut out for him, or not… if he does the right thing.
