Absolutely right, Michael...difference is THEN and NOW, is that the MARXIST Socialist/Communist elements in America a century ago ( and more, really), did NOT fully control virtually EVERY institution and 'lever' of power extant - as "THEY" do NOW here in the USSA, circa 2024 AD...after their VERY successful "Long March Through the Institutions" by advocates of: Antonio Gramsci, Eric Fromm, Theodor Adorno (and) Herbert Marcuse, who encouraged the absolute deconstruction of the U.S. - from WITHIN! So,NOW, TODAY, the "Collective Leftist" piles of excrement are hitting the fan - and the American people - right in their collective kissers! FEW seem to give a damn! Many seem to LIKE being subjugated to 'noble (sounding) causes' such as "saving the earth", or saving the whales, or the birds, or the fish or the water, or DEI and "social-justice" - which is STRAIGHT out of the COMMUNIST MANIFESTO!
America has become a characture of itself very similar to the movie - CATCH-22. INSANE and totally UPSIDE-DOWN - even to the FACT that PRE-1970, the DEMOCRAT party color was RED and the Republican BLUE! THAT switcheroo
was pulled off by the FAKE NEWS MEDIA - specifically NBC and CBS - with the other Leftist "free-press" dutifully falling in line.
I was taught NOTHING in public schools, until college, regarding communism. I took a class on the USSR, by a former diplomat (canтАЩt recall his name), in college. This was before the тАШfallтАЩ. Although, if Jeffery Sachs is to be believed, it didnтАЩt happen the way 'Night Line' portrayed it. Another class was about how тАШterrorism' was going to be the warfare of the future.
Probably no worse than many other well paid presenters who were fawned over. (Many people were prima donnas in the networks.) From people who knew, Frank Reynolds and Peter Jennings we considered more down to earth than most.
Actually the socialists have been whittling away at our Republic for at least a century. Wilson was the prime mover when they put him in office

NO PUSHBACK AT ALL from the "Republicans"!
Sez it all!
They bit the poisoned apple and went to sleep. They are waking up now
"They" better come ALIVE FAST - else the "Fragile Experiment with Freedom" Ben Franklin spoke of will forever be a fast fading memory.
Contingencies
"Contingencies" ??
Please elucidate.
Something that might possible happen in the future causing more problems or making further plans and arrangements

Ted Coppel the Night Line talking mouth was a sanctimonious supercilious know it all.

Ditto Peter Jennings ( and add mealy-mouth).
Yep.
