I'm sure it's purely for nefarious reasons.

He is a loose cannon. His arrogance is boundless and he is completely drunk with power.

Our biggest hope is that in his megalomaniacal power trip, he will fuck up bigly, thinking that he's too powerful to bring down.

I hope to see a spectacular fall with him, Trump and many others in this administration and their enablers.

Huh! Richard Donoghue from EDNY is moving to DC to be top deputy to Deputy AG Jeffrey Rosen. Donoghue is who Putin's operatives in Ukraine are convinced will take down Joe Biden and they have been feeding him lots of disinfo. This is something to watch

They even put Donoghue in their chart. Ugh I have an uneasy feeling
