But this would mean the longer they keep pushing, the harder they need to push every time to, to counteract the building momentum. That would be the escalation in heavy handed activity we've seen, right?
Because what I see happening down that road is you can only intensify your push so much before you leave the realm of legal activities, as they already seem to be stepping past. And the more underhanded behavior you engage in, and the more aggressively you do so, the odds of fucking up and getting caught goes exponential. Not just in their blatant fortification attempts, but in all their other activities.
Is this admin setting itself up for a legendary crisis and controversy when they get caught doing something so off the rails not even CNN can spin it positively? Because it seems they can either do that, or die on the vine like they've been doing with the Infrastructure bill.
