i'd say it did. the public put a group of thieves, vandals and extremists in office last november and they promptly went about destroying everything that might work to limit their ability to loot, steal and inflicting pain on the people they hate
This whole NYT account about the weaponization of DOJ is beyond disturbing. Kinda feels like the US government fell in January.

It's remarkable that the number of news analyses/pundit takes that the Democrats are too extreme--out of touch, too focused on divisive cultural issues, too beholden to progressive orthodoxy--far exceeds the articles on the Trump/GOP's connections to the far right. www.nytimes.com/2025/11/16/u...

Just heard re: some ICE agents who raided a Chicago taqueria, then went back to the same taqueria for lunch the following week and got confused when the owner kicked them out, and I realized "jesus these doofuses really do believe we're all living in a video game where the NPCs have no memory"

I really did not have any intent of riding out this series of movies, but I liked the first one and had enough fun with the second one so I took the evening off on Thursday after class and was glad I did because this was fun. I really liked Rosamund Pike with a South African accent.

Ponied up for a month of newspapers.com, went right to the New York Daily News and quickly found this gem from Feb 16, 1936.

Unlike the US "justice" system, I am not a glutton for inflicting punishment, but I would like to see Larry Summers have to deal with the kinds of pressures his policies have inflicted on other seniors such as having to choose between eating cat food or heating home in the winter.

Number 22 at this year's BIFAN was U are the Universe, kind of a sweet Ukrainian movie about the end of the world and the last man in the universe and the things that really matter.

The Founders were so concerned about bribery that the Constitution forbids it three separate times. Two emoluments clauses ban officials—unambiguously including the president—from accepting things of value, plus bribery is the only named impeachable offense besides treason.

Unprecedentedly corrupt.
