Colbert with Woodward and Costa: Peril

In part 1 of the interview (below) we learn that China, Russia and Iran went on military alert because they feared Twitler would start a nuclear war to stay in office. General Milley got intelligence that China thought that war would be against them. Twitler was a direct domestic threat to us, the world and our Constitution. Also of grave concern was how close we came to having Twit convince Pence to not certify the election. The Eastman memo documents this, claiming absolute power to the Presidency. 

In Part 2 Colbert wants to know why those who supported Twit's Big Lie of voter fraud aren't being held to account, since apparently they didn't believe the lie and were just using it to undermine confidence in the election. Two examples are Senators Graham and Lee. And this is still a key lie in the Repug Party to justify voter suppression and purging. It is an ongoing attempt to subvert democracy that will continue, and likely succeed, unless those responsible are held accountable. 

In Part 3 part of the problem is the incredible power entrusted to the Presidency. It is increasing with each one and  was grossly abused with the last one. And fortunately, General Milley courageously challenged that by ordering the military leaders to not carry out any Twit order unless it comes through him. The result of this nightmare has been to deeply damage the US in eyes of the world.
