I don't expect anything big to change just because there is one election. The entire judicial system is still very much MAGA.

Not in Texas any more. The election wiped out the states entire judiciary.

Oh wow. This is certainly great.

let's hope for the best; though most people I talk to believe the DoJ is a ghost of its former self and it will take years to rebuild

As long as the DoJ is rebuilt with better components, I’m in. The good thing is that it can be shaped after the current blue wave, and that will reshape the country, setting it on a better path for decades.

I hope one day the US can live up to its promise.

Are they actual MAGA or are they just MAGA-intimidated?

Once the bully has been punched in the face once, they seem a little bit less scary, so hopefully the judicial system has been mostly MAGA-intimidated, so that there's hope for a sooner-rather-than-later return to sanity.

“but the power to bend the world toward the future he envisions”

The guy demonstrates that he stans for the Sith through a absurd half-assed AI take of what Anakin’s family would have looked like if only, oh if only Padme had totally switched her character and nature and chosen otherwise?

And he still has investors?

That some Star Wars fans root for the Empire gets me every single time. Like, it’s not like Star Wars is super sophisticated and full of nuance. How stupid does someone need to be to fail to understand which side the good guys are? Didn’t the blue and red light sabers give a clue on the first movie?
