James,

I am happy to be able to share a small nugget of good news: The Book It Program continues to exist. It never went away. https://www.bookitprogram.com/. Now, nearly all of the Pizza Huts in my area are gone, and the only one in reasonable driving distance has a dilapidated vibe which only hints at the former glory of its halcyon days (i.e. my youth), but it's there. The only downside is that I now feel guilty about bringing three kids to a pizzeria which by all appearances would be out of business were it not central to some kind of money laundering operation, ordering four personal pan pizzas, and paying for one of them and a 2-liter of 7Up.

Also, thanks for the post!

I am trying to read through the whole thing but I am not going to write about anything other than the DOJ because I am just sufficiently knowledgeable or professionally qualified to do so.

However I am going to write one more post to address your critique and correct some errors. And in particular to make the case that what Project 2025 recommends is exactly what Trump will do. And that as a result of the Supreme Court’s Immunity decision, his powers to subvert democracy would be even greater.

Thanks for mentioning my article. The irony is that despite my efforts to present the Harris campaign and the liberal punditry with real ammunition, they’ve ignored it. Probably because the devil is hiding in the weeds (although Joyce Vance has no excuse since she is normally real good at gardening for the truth) and this threat does not lend itself to a sound bite.

Oh well.
