Doublespeak and Newspeak are no longer Orwellian ideas, they are current events and modern 'journalism' at network outlets. Fow News has been the engine of this destruction for the entirety of its fetid existence and now cast-offs from that heinous ship are in positions of power in the ruling party. Gee, I am sure glad we have such powerful followers in resistance to them. (if you need the emoji here, I can't help you)...

“The Party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command.”
― George Orwell, 1984

The ends in this current abomination are not policies or programs or ways to improve life for the population or the poor. The end is power and power alone is everything.

We know that no one ever seizes power with the intention of relinquishing it. Power is not a means; it is an end. One does not establish a dictatorship in order to safeguard a revolution; one makes the revolution in order to establish the dictatorship. The object of persecution is persecution. The object of torture is torture. The object of power is power. Now you begin to understand me.”
― George Orwell, 1984
