    100%. Trump had just launched a violent, deadly Insurrection a couple weeks before the Inauguration. Biden would have been fully legally and Constitutionally justified in stepping off the podium after his swearing in, and ordering the arrests of every MAGA in the Trump Administration as National Security Threats, which they were.

    They should have been shipped off to Guantanamo Bay for extensive interrogation, where they would be cut off from the media, their lifeblood. We would have uncovered the False Electors Plot (off to Gitmo for them), and the Stolen Classified Documents Scheme. All of them should have been denied bond, and remained in their dungeons, until they could be tried for the Sedition and Treason.

    But Biden decided to appoint The most feckless Republican in history to be his AG, who them dithered and slow-walked the cases, giving Trump a Two year head start in running out the clock.

    MAGA survived and stole back the power, entirely because Biden, and the cowardly Democratic legislature, allowed them to.

            Brother, I’d buy you a beer if I could. It’s Saturday night. Go watch your favorite comedy movie, seriously, flush your brain.

                Star Trek has been my guilty pleasure for decades. Half my TIVO is NG, DS9, and Voyager episodes. I’ve seen them all a dozen times, but I still like to watch one as the last thing before I go to bed. I’m always hoping I’ll stumble across one that I accidentally missed, or at least don’t remember, but they’re all pretty familiar at this point.

                DS9 is probably the best. The final story arc in the last season is some of the most exciting TV I’ve ever seen.

                  I will always have a special for Strange New Worlds because it’s the one that helped me convince my wife to give it a try. That is powerful hair.
