Coach Pāṇini ®He was the #AmericanCatiline and thanks to #Project2025, he is the #RedCaesar.
I’m reading my first novel in years, Conspirata by Robert Harris, written in the voice of Tiro, the enslaved scribe of a #Cicero, about a series of events that actually happened at the end of the Roman Republic.
#History is omnipresent.
#Caesar did not actively defend Catiline.
While he had previously supported Catiline, he later distanced himself.
When accused of involvement, Caesar pointed to Cicero’s testimony that he had informed against Catiline.
Overall, Caesar maintained a cautious stance to avoid implicating himself in the #conspiracy.

Because the story of #Catiline is batshit, just like that of the #AmericanCatiline.
“Adam Driver’s architect Cesar Catilina squares off with a regressive status quo mayor, Franklyn Cicero”

Francis Ford Coppola Says “Men Like Donald Trump Are Not At The Moment In Charge”; Filmmaker Pulls Jon Voight Into Political Convo At ‘Megalopolis’ Cannes Presser
"To do a Roman epic set in modern America, I had no idea that the politics of today would make that so relevant," exclaimed Francis Ford Coppola about this $120M 40-years in the making epic Megalopolis at the pic's Cannes press conference this AM.
Normalize putting “#conservative” in quotes.
They don’t want to “conserve” anything, especially the #American Republic™
They are #reactionaries.
They want to Make Sulla’s #Proscriptions Great Again.
Hear me now, believe me later.
You: “So dramatic, they could never do that or get away with it”
Me: “Okay, boss, sure boss, whatever, boss”
I don’t disagree, but I think the more accurate frame isn’t the Putsch.
It’s #Catiline, whom the founders obsessed about, as a character from history that threatened the model of the Republic which they were aspiring toward.
The #AmericanCatiline still lives.

That’s, indeed, the range of global characterization:
Psychopathic ex-KGB billionaire
Bloodthirsty Wannabe Kahanist
Joseph R. Biden
Insurrectionist ( #AmericanCatiline)
Who is the modern day #Cicero to read out loud the #Catilinarian Orations?
