John Oliver commenting on the situation with police, and how police unions are actually impeding efforts at reform:
"This is Master Obi-Wan Kenobi. I regret to report that both our Jedi Order and the Republic, have fallen with a dark shadow of the Empire rising to take their place. This message is a warning and a reminder for any surviving Jedi. Trust in The Force. Do not return to the Temple... that time has past. And our future is uncertain. We will each be challenged. Our trust. Our faith. Our friendships. But we must persevere. And in time, a new hope will emerge. May the Force be with you, always."
Legal Eagle on Posse Comitatus, The Insurrection Act, and if Trump has the authority to re-create Tiananmen Square* in Washington D.C,
“*When the students poured into Tiananmen Square, the Chinese government almost blew it,” Donald Trump said. “Then they were vicious, they were horrible, but they put it down with strength. That shows you the power of strength. Our country is right now perceived as weak … as being spit on by the rest of the world,” the future president continued.
"This is Master Obi-Wan Kenobi. I regret to report that both our Jedi Order and the Republic, have fallen with a dark shadow of the Empire rising to take their place.

Ooooh boy, aiming dead for the ego, I see. I wonder if part of the plan for that spot isn't just to provoke him into some over-the-top response they can turn around on him later.

A new video from the Lincoln Project
Something terrifying we missed from the Trump Rally in Tulsa, and something we all need to recognize.
His most devoted followers, and he refused to take precautions for their safety, to try and soothe his damaged ego. What would he do to the rest of us?
He will do no less.
He will bring those who are not devoted to him no less risk, no less danger, no less harm.
By pure coincidence I grabbed a copy of this image from My[Confined]Space last night. Even though this is a video thread, it's right on target for the current topic:

This one went up in Dec 2016, so either Battle Beast were particularly prescient or wrote it in reference to similar political trends around the world rather thans som eforeign president's election. In any case, I'd count it a message of hope overall, with the general theme of "you'll have a comeuppance" and all.
non-embedded And may I just say that I find Noora much more attractive than the usual run of female celebrities, so stick-thin you'd be afraid to give them a hug lest they snap in two? She looks like she legitimately could kick some ass, which sells the theme of the music even better.
