Everyone in the Trump orbit is evil to the core. They have defended Trump and his criminal corruption. They have supported his illegal and unconstitutional war. They accept Israel’s horrendous crimes in Gaza and Lebanon. They are just like Trump, drunk on power and all the perks that go with it. They could have broken with Trump and revealed his crimes but they have remained loyal not because they support this evil monster but out of sheer self interest. May they burn in hell.
Any definition of ”not monolithic“ in 2026 that includes nary a peep when he tore down then East Wing and when he proposed the 1.776b slush fund is of no use to me. The monolith is the problem.
“The accounting that has begun is not justice. It is the dress rehearsal for the explanations that the men in the room will, later, offer for what they were doing there.” Susie Wiles is a woman, correct?
Fuck Haberman. She fucking knew a long time ago. Her “reporting" would have been well suited for the Weather Channel. This evergreen Anand quite will always be present for me.
Thanks for your accounting and bringing Susie Wiles into full view. Tie that back to her Spring 2025 (leaked) interviews with Chris Whipple for the later publication in Vanity Fair Dec 25 article and a lot more makes sense now, that didn't back then.
Facts reveal, and the sources of those facts are key....This is elegantly and brilliantly written, Mike. Your prose will echo on, as well!

The 2016-2020 orbit was not monolithic.

As a Reality tv Administration. Every Department’s first priority is how it will play in TV. Issues of Justice is far down in the list of DOJ.

The plot thickens....
Wow! Good article! So sad because it's so accurate.
