    "America is no mere international citizen. It is the dominant power in
    the world, more dominant than any since Rome. Accordingly, America is
    in a position to reshape norms, alter expectations, and create new
    realities. How? By unapologetic and implacable demonstrations of will."

    Charles Krauthammer - March, 2024 as quoted in The Best of TomDispatch

    Krauthammer and company must enjoy re-runs of Leni Riefenstahl’s most famous documentary.
