We can find a common, central philosophy that will capture the drive of an election-winning majority of "We the People".

That the early United States was (or were) referred to as the New Empire would seem nonsensical or flatly erroneous today on both sides of the Atlantic. In fact, Europeans and Americans alike viewed the United Colonies as a potential empire existing uneasily within an empire, the British Empire. This perspective impacted the crafting of the Continental Congress and the US government, whereas the governments of the member states were viewed as commensurate with the contemporary kingdoms in Europe.

Politics can be tricky, and things get even harder to understand when there are alternative facts involved. Alternative facts can turn things around for entire movements, make it hard to know whether or not you are getting the real truth, and compromise the integrity of someone when they believe in something. If you have ever heard an alternative fact before, you will know that they can be really negative and may even seem to be slightly absurd because of the way that people have chosen to use them.

A groundbreaking new study of Anglo-American relations during the Cold War, Diplomacy at the Brink argues for a reevaluation of Dwight D. Eisenhower's foreign policy toward allies and enemies alike. Contrary to his reputation as a level-headed moderate, the Eisenhower who emerges is a conservative ideologue, a leader whose aggressively anti-Communist and anticolonialist foreign policies represented a major shift away from the containment policy of the Truman presidency.

The sheeple are taught to seek answers from experts and to scapegoat those who don't adhere to the manufactured consensus.

Although the house probably should have been lambasted as well, this shines light on the absurdity that is our government and how it does NOT work sometimes...I still really do love America really I do!
