Like any other psychopathic dictator
“… fueled almost entirely by grievance and revenge.” The perfect summary of the GOP and other fascist organizations. Most of these people (the foot soldiers) need to be put in a kindergarten-style "time out" and instructed on how to grow the fuck up. The leaders need to be imprisoned. We already know how fascism plays out. There's no need to allow Republicans to repeat the experiment here.
It's way past time to fight back. Republicans are fascists and bullies. They kill us with impunity. (Every mass shooting in the USA ever has been committed by a republican.) Perhaps we need to think about returning the favor. We just have to be smart about how we do it. But we're good that that.

The number of Americans who possess a security clearance has swelled to more than five million, because classification has swathed in secrecy so many functions of defense and intelligence work. Given the expanding universe of classified documents, the widening pool of professionals with access to them, and the increasing ease with which data can be downloaded and filched, further jumbo leaks appear inevitable.

[Revenge as a form of justice] is so ingrained in us that we don't have a sense of closure unless someone is made to pay for their wrongdoing.

Books that I read in 2021 - number 22:
I had quite enjoyed reading the book “Days Without End” by Sebastian Barry and therefore immediately bought the following book. Unfortunately, I didn’t like this one as much. „A Thousand Moons" is the title and it continues the story of the Native American girl from the first part. What remains is a feeling of how well the author can deconstruct the founding myth of the USA without that being the main focus. The story itself, on the other hand, is really not that well told.
