What's up with calling all (or at least quite many) cabinet members "tsar"? Or was it always customary in the past also, and I was only living under a rock? Or is it just insinuating at Russian influence?

Does anyone else find the use of 'tsar' off putting?

These are not Roman emperors - not Slavic monarchs, nor kings, or other ecclesiastical officials. They're literally rewriting our culture. These are temporary positions being labelled as kings.

The cabinet is quietly being stuffed by folks who are well known for spreading Russian disinformation about the Ukraine War. Musk and Sacks fall in that category, but most of all -- Tulsi Gabbard who will head all US intelligence agencies.
