With the relentless firehose of insanity gripping our country every day, I feel like I have to speak out. For the past few weeks, more and more I’ve felt like we’re all passengers on the Titanic, about to hit an iceberg.

Finally the passengers are rising up, though, preparing to rush the cockpit. Make no mistake, the pilot is a demented, suicidal madman, his first mate a ketamine addled, chainsaw wielding sociopath.

But that matters not at all to the captain. Project 2025 offers him no wisdom, no vision, for he has neither. He only knows his days are few. Money cannot ward off the ravages of old age or buy him the adulation he craves.

He sinks ever deeper into madness, terrified of spending even a single night in prison. So revenge is his only salvation, hurt those who hurt him. Project 2025 gave him willing foot soldiers and that’s all he needed to take over the airplane.

The captain is accompanied by a handful of zealots—idiots all—who are rabid in their willingness to go down with the ship for their cause. Project 2025 is their Koran, their guiding light.

They see the captain as a savior and prostrate themselves at his feet, that he may fly them to the fantasy world their book promises. They defend him with every fiber of their being, knowing full well that holy wars are never bloodless.

He is not trying to safely land the plane at its destination. He’s a criminal, a sociopath who eight years later has now forced his way back into the cockpit, through what means we may never know. His only goal is to crash the plane and kill everyone on board.

It keeps running around in my head, wondering whether we’re just rearranging the deck chairs before the unseen disaster strikes. Only that’s not quite right. We’re not on the Titanic. It’s much worse than that. We’re passengers on United 93.

And it’s not an iceberg we need worry about, but something far more dangerous. The captain. Because the captain isn’t really a captain. He has no real experience or interest in flying an airplane, even after years of flight school in Florida.
