Notwithstanding the foregoing, fie on Robert Francis O'Rourke and Senile Pedophile Shotgun Joe.During the latter stages of World War I, President Woodrow Wilson appointed financier Bernard Baruch to run the War Industries Board. This position was sometimes dubbed the "industry czar".[1]
One of the earliest known metaphorical usages of the term in the U.S. was in reference to Judge Kenesaw Mountain Landis, who was named commissioner of baseball, with broad powers to clean up the sport after it had been dirtied by the Black Sox scandal of 1919.[3]
In 1926, a New York City chamber of commerce named what The New York Times termed a "czar" to clean up the milk delivery industry.[4]
In the United States, the term czar has been used by the media to refer to appointed executive branch officials since at least the 1930s and then the 1940s under President Franklin D. Roosevelt.[5][6][7] In 1942, The Washington Post reported on the "executive orders creating new czars to control various aspects of our wartime economy."[8] Positions were created for a transportation czar, a manpower czar, a production czar, a shipping czar, and a synthetic rubber czar, all to solve difficult problems in coordinating the resources necessary to fight World War II.[1][9] Not only did the administration of President Roosevelt advocate their creation; in December 1944, Republicans in Congress advocated that a "food czar" position be created that would have almost unlimited control over food pricing and distribution.[10] Certain of Roosevelt's Cabinet secretaries were called "czars", despite having been duly confirmed by the Senate, at the point that their powers were increased by statute.[6]
Since then, a number of ad hoc temporary as well as permanent United States Executive Branch positions have been established that have been referred to in this manner. The trend began again in earnest[1] when President Richard Nixon created two offices whose heads became known as "czars" in the popular press: drug czar in 1971,[11] and especially energy czar in December 1973[12] referring to William E. Simon's appointment as the head of the Federal Energy Administration.[13] Nixon told his cabinet that Simon would have "absolute authority" in his designated areas, and compared the intended result to Albert Speer's role as the person in unquestioned charge of armaments for the Third Reich.[14] Simon found both the informal title "czar" and the Speer comparison unsettling.[14] However, at the height of the Arab oil embargo, Simon gave the position a good name by successfully putting into place a mandatory fuel allocation program and calming public fears about shortages without resorting to explicit gasoline rationing.[1][15]

Yep, we got the Dream Team now: Biden, Buttigieg, Klobuchar, Bloomberg, and Robert Francis O'Rourke. What a lineup! All they need now is that little snotty punk from Parkland, Florida. Count on him getting back on TV.

They will push it,... they have no choice,... they are drowning from forced transparency, and their religious like addiction to power has blinded them into suicidal actions!!!
All they have left is to double down, go for broke,...they have no choice, they can't retreat,...forfeiting the powers they have stolen is not an option to them,... they have backed themselves into a corner that has simply left them with no other options.
Cornered animals,... with, a do, or die, mentality,... all adds up to a very unpredictable situation,... imo.
