Cabinet of the Canceled

V Venture capitalist Marc Andreessen recently expressed what many felt at the reelection of Donald Trump: not triumph so much as relief. "I hope this last ten years increasingly is just going to feel like a bad dream," he told podcast host Joe Rogan. "I can't believe we tolerated the level of repression ... and anger and ... emotional incontinence and ... cancellation campaigns." Much of it was orchestrated or encouraged by our government. One could say many things about Trump's cabinet picks. At times, they seem to embody Government by Middle Finger. But they also, undeniably, represent Government by the Canceled: an assemblage that doesn't need to be reminded of the administrative state's ability to coerce the American public by calling in favors from Big Tech or pulling the levers of regulation, audit, or investigation. Many have experienced such treatment firsthand.

Trump has chosen people who understand the threat of government coercion"because they have experienced it firsthand.

Trump made more requests for online moderation than Biden did.

Sigh.

Trump lies about everything, Trumpers believe his lies, including the 'lawfare' one.

This is getting monotonous.
