This is excellent, although I believe The Fool starts more alabaster white, like bleached white. This might be The Fool's coloring somewhere near the end of the second book. Fool's coloring and changes are explained later in the series.

This administration: bravely keeping us safe from people growing food, the tamale lady, the ice cream man, and now... firefighters. Releasing insurrectionists, bringing in cartel families, pardoning hardened criminals, inviting in known rapists. MAGA deserves all shame. They bought this with votes.

He wants to retake all the territories that Russia has ceded over the years. That includes all the USSR vassal nations and Russia. Probably Japan as well; even though they didn't ever "own" the nation, the two fought a war that Japan won, and I don't think he can deal with that.
