Happy Sunday friends,

On the Sunday shows this morning. I’ve been watching Kristi Noem and Tom Homan continue to lie and defame Renee Good, who was murdered by an ICE agent while he took video on his cell phone. The video shows that the last words Renee Good said to him—with her black lab in the backseat—were “Dude, I’m not mad at you.”

By contrast, after Jonathan Ross shot her three times in the head, he said “Fuckin’ bitch”—and left the scene while she bled out. He was not angry that she hit him with her car—she didn’t. He was angry that his authority was being questioned by a woman—and that she was going to leave. This is classic abuser behavior.

The most dangerous time in an abusive relationship is when the victim tries to leave.

I am reminded that the people who behave this way are not like most of us. Their psychological makeup is just different, and we can’t treat them as if they are normal.

The Dark Tetrad personality type, which I believe comprises the majority of the government at this point, operates without empathy, with deliberate machiavellian planning, and with sadism and narcissism at its core. The government itself, as a whole, is acting like a Dark Tetrad personality.

This is a good short video that talks through the Dark Tetrad personality and the implications of being in a relationship with one.

All Americans are essentially abuse victims at this stage. And we are exporting the pathology internationally.

Zoom today at Noon PT / 3PM ET to discuss this abusive relationship, how we should handle it, and anything else that’s on your mind. It’s a safe, friendly environment and open to all questions and comments. Hope to see you! Details below.
