Russell Vought’s War   New piece, for @theunpopulist.net: Meet one of the architects behind Project 2025 and an ideologue of the “post-constitutional” Right. He desires to vanquish his enemies - and itches to unleash a rightwing “counter-revolution.”   Some thoughts from this piece:

How the fuck is someone posting about shutting down the US government and having secret meetings with foreign and domestic enemies of the US keeping his huge government contracts to run our satellites and space program. Seems—what is the word?—bad.

Especially true in #Florida.
