3. So, the FBI (at least some part of it) still functioning, yet Neo Nazis have infiltrated throughout

Border Patrol, ICE, and undoubtedly, DOJ, and some FBI, itself. How the hell is a Democratic administration going to be able to quickly clean house of these awful people? Trying to infiltrate these groups, themselves can help, but the old Cold War issue of "double agents" quickly becomes an issue.

It is so painful to me, the daughter of a WWII veteran with 3 more uncles who likewise served, yet were sufficiently traumatized by what they saw (in both European and Pacific fronts) that they could/would never talk specifically about it. That so little is being well-taught (at least to many Gen-Z and Gen-Alpha and possible poorly to other generations as well) to make them vulnerable to these pro-NAZI messages is just wrenching. I think of the videos made by those dying off in the Holocaust Museum and similar museums elsewhere, whose mantra "never forget" seems to be fading.

My soapbox for the morning. I did not wake up in a positive mood, obviously.
