And speaking of interference and collusion

"This is Master Obi-Wan Kenobi. I regret to report that both our Jedi Order and the Republic, have fallen with a dark shadow of the Empire rising to take their place. This message is a warning and a reminder for any surviving Jedi. Trust in The Force. Do not return to the Temple... that time has past. And our future is uncertain. We will each be challenged. Our trust. Our faith. Our friendships. But we must persevere. And in time, a new hope will emerge. May the Force be with you, always."

Oh, dear. Has Grenell never been told what "right wing" means in Germany? Or that the USA fought a war against right-wing Germans within living memory?

Well, that’s the problem. For a lot of people in the US, nazism was a left-wing movement. How have they come to this conclusion you ask? Because it was called National
Socialism.
These are the consequences of eliminating history courses and replacing them with "American and World Studies" taught by the football coach.

... Reminds me of when Pete Hoekstra was pressed by the Dutch press corps and seemed amazed that the press would not relent.
But the Dutch press isn't as timid as the US' press. Not when it comes to politics.

Most of the political press is more preoccupied with not losing access to the corridors of power, than actually doing their jobs.
Also, the press got cold feet when the Iran Contra affair started pointing towards Reagan. They didn't want to be responsible for ending two republican administrations.
