Brava Allison. Chef's kiss. Outstanding breakdown and analysis. Thank you.

Question: Can WE THE PEOPLE legally file a lawsuit (not certain the type of law suit) against all of the illegal and unconstitutional heinous actions the POS has bestowed upon us? Is that a thing? Is this something you and Katie Phang have ever discussed? Thank you 🫶🏻

Boy do those toga cosplayers need to be hit around the head and shoulders with all three volumes of Gibbon!

Thanks for this, it was highly enlightening.

. Bronston’s 55 Days at Peking was another filmed in Franco’s Spain epic about that crowd pleasing subject, the Boxer Rebellion. He built a Chinese compound out in La Mancha, and the way I heard it, Charlton Heston was begging Bronston to let Orson Welles borrow it for a week or two to make a movie. Never happened.

Julius Caesar stabbed by Publius Servilius Casca Longus struck the first blow to Caesar's neck or shoulder. Marcus Julius Brutus was one of them. At least 60 senators were involved. There were about 60 He was stabbed approximately 23 times! I’d go for 47.

* I had to google this info. How appropriate

An even greater irony...Julius Caesar had a very public romance with King Nicomedes of Bithynia...it was an open secret...and Julius was the bottom...Do you think Bannon was the bottom in prison? Is Bisexuality part of the new Warrior ethos?

You are an incredible journalist and make everything so clear in your podcasts and your writing. I hope you enjoyed your vacation ( if it’s over). If not, relax and hope for some more ticklish irony. 🇺🇸☮️
